"For What It's Worth" isn't a very good choice IMHO.  W ain't the mayor of Sunset Strip!

Short set, song #4 starting at 10:09.  

But then W has a pretty damn short attention span anyway.

Speaking of "Won't Get Fooled Again", Gaz wasn't your old roommate involved in the live version of this that was filmed specifically for The Kids Are Alright?

I wish I could say for sure.  Richard told me a number of stories about his past as a lighting designer for various concerts, but I just don't know if that was one of them.  It feels like a lifetime ago that I lived there in the 'Loin.  I'm impressed with your memory!

My brother considers that yowl at the end of "Won't Get Fooled Again" to be the greatest yell in rock history.  I don't agree but I don't have a counterargument.

As I recall he had a couple of framed photos of the laser production & if I'm not mistaken, he did both this & the Wings concert movie.

Best sentiment of set:

"Blind faith in your leaders will get you killed."

Now more than ever.

I think Bruce just gave you one, but I'll stick with Roger myself.

WOW.  BOS to Broooce.  "Blind faith in your leaders will get you killed," indeed.  I'd forgotten how powerful that opening was.

I really like the eerie, jangly guitar intro and rap, but the actual song, done by Bruce seems kind of Vegas-like.
