That's what friends are all about, and you've got a good one if he/she
was thoughtful enough to add Naked Eye to the mix.  That Naked Eye
performance is spellbinding, isn't it?

That's bothered me every time I've seen the video, because you KNOW the
ending, how it ended, why it ended but it's out of order!  Isn't there
an anecdote in the cd's liner notes from Ray Manzarek regarding the
ending of Magic Bus?  Pete's guitar broke and he stormed offstage
because he wanted to keep playing.  You lose that chronology with the
video.  Bastards.

noise and

Ha!  That's hilarious because I just saw the DVD recently and noticed
that girl.  She wasn't anywhere near as vocal in the video!  It was like
a scene in a Godzilla movie; her lips weren't moving in synch with her
sound.
