chaobellSo my R30 DVD came in today. Deluxe edition, with the 2-CD set that's not going to be released by itself and some other nifty l3wt. Yee!
And now I'm watching it, and it seems... strange.
Some shit is missing, that's how.
I had to dig up my own handwritten set list from the show I saw to confirm most of it.
Yes. Shit is definitely missing.
Specifically: Bravado. YYZ. The Trees. One Little Victory. Secret Touch. And Red Sector A. And By-Tor. And.... LA VILLA. I did not need to look at my set list to confirm that one's absence, because I remember it very, very clearly.
Why, you ask, do I remember it so clearly?
Oh, I don't know, maybe because THAT PART WHERE ALEX JUST KIND OF GOES BATSHIT CRAZY AND MAKES UP GOOFY STORIES ABOUT FISHING AND AIRPLANES AND WHATEVER AND RAMBLES ABOUT WEIRD SHIT FOR THREE OR FOUR MINUTES IS KINDA MEMORABLE?
I was so looking forward to the batshit crazy. Seriously, you guys, that is the most beautiful part of the whole show, you guys. Well, yeah, okay, the drum solo too, but I WANT CRAZY LERXST, DAMN YOUR EYES.
WTF.
They appear to have left this shit off the CD, too.
Of course, I'm still on the first disc. It could still redeem itself by including some of this stuff in the Easter Eggs or on the second disc somewhere.
[Edit: THIS JUST IN: They DID, at least, leave us real live Pirates of Syrinx, swordfighting on stage. Also, Geddy has a parrot on his shoulder. I suppose I can make do with that. ...also, someone in the audience has hoisted the Jolly Roger. Okay, yeah, that'll definitely do.]
