What is everyone´s personal favourite highlight of the new MSG DVD?I think "The Only Living Boy In New York" stands out.

I really like this moment too..."The only living..." is one of the most Paul´s beautiful songs (period S&G)...strange (and a shame) that it remains relatively unknown...
Did somebody notice the woman in the crowd you can see during this song? she really looks like Carrie Fisher...

" The Only Living Boy In New York" is pretty good.

Yes, I noticed it too, but I´m not sure that this woman is Carrie Fisher, she looks like her but wouldn´t it be rather strange to show her and AG wife and not Edie?

I had a look at it several times and it´s definitely not Carrie Fisher at all.

I also prefer TOLBINY, other great moments are ´Bridge´ and ´My Little Town´
Well, I think on My little town their voices fit better today, than on songs like SOS or Mrs. Robinson, beause it´s a more rocking song. On the slower songs it sounds better when Art and Paul are singin the verses separately

I also think TOLBINY is my favourite, but some others come close, American Tune especially the second verse from Paul alone, what a voice! Cecilia, at last you see Jimmy Haddad more then a second and Feelin´ Groovy is a great closer with the ´new´ instruments played by Mark Stewart and Rob Schwimmer.

Feelin´ groovy is good but the "new instruments" part at the end of the song is shorter on the DVD than the version from other concerts i heard...what a pity, it was great!!!

Sorry for being "classic" but this cover of BOTW is so great.

In Basel Paul sang it so well that Artie congratulated him with his thumb. The third verse with the two voices is also great.

But when Artie finishes the song alone, taking the mic in his hand and keeping his high note, it´s soooooooooooooooooooooooooo moving. Every time I see or hear this cover, I can´t stop crying...

Yes, in Amsterdam it was also longer, I think they did that especially for us European fans....;-)

I heard this part of Rob Schwimmer and Mark was longer on the 2004 tour? At which show did they start to include their comedian part to this song?

They certainly included a longer version of Feelin´ Groovy at Hyde Park (UK). Mark Stewart was wandering all over the stage blowing his Whatever at everyone. By the way, does anyone know what that cross between a trombone and a didgeridoo is called?

BOTW was great too...i think many people (Paris concert) were surprised by Paul´s strong voice on it...he sang his part wonderfully...it was moving...AG was good too, but his problem is that he is always expected to make a performance...i believe it is not very comfortable...
