Brixton and Dusseldorf are both impeccable. They always seem to cut to the right players at the right times. The venues are both pretty enough to facilitate nice shots (versus, for example, metro 93 which is just a small club, and there's just a miller lite sign on the side of the stage).

Those shots of Jimmy's kit at Dusseldorf helped me a ton when I was learning to play and setup a kit properly.

Plus the fact that they didn't cut away from the naked man, like they re-edited on the reissue. Cameraguy actually follows him around the stage, and you can see Iha and Chamberlin laughing during the outro.

Pinkpop '94. The shots of Billy's back in the foreground against the endless mass of moving bodies is straight out of a Kurosawa film or something. I mean good god:

this performance of Silverfuck is what made me a superfan nearly 8 years ago

[Grox]

Looking for a gif of the crowd moving as one massive organism- if you know this video, think of when Silverfuck kicks back in after the ambient middle part. it's just incredible

the dusseldorf show always struck me as a bit odd -- the band surrounded by so much empty space on the stage, and the perplexing silence of the audience make it feel more like a theatrical production of a smashing pumpkins show than an actual one

[Ram27]

shit i forgot about pinkpop. fucking incredible. plus we got the feed from the cam behind the drums

disarm with everyone singing along was insane. esp the bit when the crowd got ahead of bill and he chuckled

just wish we got a higher quality copy
