I wouldn't pass this show up if they came through. John Waite still tours and puts on an amazing show. This is a great re-recording with the current line up. This is such feel good music.

It was a wonderful concert. I still remember it to this day! Bill Graham put on some beautiful concerts back in the day!

I've got 45 years of performing on stage and I see this drummer playing the ride cymbal when I hear the high hat, I hear a horn section but there are none on stage, I see the singer faking the lyrics and the sound not lining up with his mouth.. Don't get me wrong, I love this music that's the reason I listened. But I'm not an idiot and I see right through the sham. Only thing I can figure, is that they re-did some parts in the studio and applied it to this video like Kiss used to do with their live albums! Take another look and pay attention to the details. Many of you are gushing but not paying attention!
