Filmed from dead centre of balcony.
Review:
This gig is filmed at a really odd angle from dead centre of the balcony.
However, the camera does zoom in and out, so you do get some good close
ups. Picture quality is a little grainy, but generally fine. Sound quality
is okay, but a little distant. A bit like the Pistols Shepherds Bush video,
though not as tinny. This is the best PiL line up in my opinion, but they
look swamped by the huge stage, and I must admit I lost interest three
songs in. However, the crowd really seem to enjoy the gig, despite incurring
Lydon's verbal wrath by spitting constantly. Lydon is an excellent
showman, but it's not the same on video is it? Worth getting for
collectors and hard-core PiL fans.
