The Sting is a live album and DVD by the American heavy metal band W.A.S.P. Originally released as a DVD/CD set,[1] it is also available as a CD on its own.

The concert was originally recorded and shown as a live webcast, which happened during the band's Helldorado World Tour. The DVD of the show (and the webcast) is the first live footage of the band to feature Blackie's signature microphone stand, dubbed 'Elvis' by band and fans alike. This album according to band members is known as The Sting.^[citation needed]

It is alleged that Blackie is unhappy with the way the DVD and CD were produced, feeling that the sound is of an inferior quality.^[citation needed]
