Well, I guess it depends on what you like.  I personally cringe when I 
hear Pete die on the high, "It's a boy, Mrs.  WAAALker, it's a boy."  Not 
that I love Chynna (and I still have nightmares regarding her hair), but 
hearing Pete try and fail kinda hurt.

HOWEVER....the Radio City has the amazing guitar by Pete in between 
"Captain Walker" and "It's A Boy" which is twice as long as the little 
bit on Join Together....I think Radio City also has Pete forgetting the 
words to "Sensation" and "Sally Simpson"...

Which I thought was a smart move.  Now, I didn't see the PsychoD tour, 
but I saw the PT Live video from BAOM, and you're gonna have to tell me 
where the harmonica player came from...I thought he was good, but in the 
words of my mother:

"I didn't know Michael Bolton played the harmonica!"
