They used that ending on both the Creatures tour and the Lick it up tour... From my understanding Vinnie came up with that ending for the song.. Maybe that is why they scraped it..or they just didn't feel it fit anymore. That ending gave extra time for them on the tank turret / riser as it turned and fired at the end of the show. I guess once the stage design changed, they no longer needed the longer ending for the song. Just my thoughts on it.

It's an awesome piece of music that tips the hat to Jeff Beck. Very majestic and deserving to still be played in the set with the song.

It was very cool music and fit the stage show perfectly.

Yes, the whole band were huge Beck fans so I'm sure Bolero's the inspiration, like Rick said.
