Hagar and his Circle bandmates \u2014 bassist Michael Anthony, drummer Jason Bonham and guitarist Vic Johnson \u2014 perform songs from the concept album in a studio and onstage, providing the soundtrack to John\u2019s storyline. Directed by ZZ Satriani, the son of Hagar and Anthony\u2019s Chickenfoot bandmate Joe Satriani, the clip also weaves in animated illustrations.<\/p>\n<p>Hagar adds further context, explaining the inspiration and concepts behind the songs and the film\u2019s themes. \u201cThe question is always what makes the tipping point, when do you finally go, \u2018That\u2019s enough?&#8217;\u201d he says towards the conclusion of the film. \u201cYou know, everyone\u2019s different.
