As the most recent poster comments, the package is expensive for those buying from USA, so...can anyone comment on whether the package is worth it? It appears to only be available on Gonzo's site (and not on Amazon). I saw the tour when it came to Boston in 1991, and really enjoyed the show (not in the round), so I don't care about that form of stage presentation. How's the quality of the video, sound? Can anyone make definitive comment at this point?

As I commented to Gonzo ,which promptly got back to me and explained the (non U.S. currency) charges ,I felt it is a bit misleading. All aside,I guess I'll find out if its all worth it.Onward,thru the fog .... ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-176961203652194678.post-19873503955826282502010-12-29T17:43:25.460-08:002010-12-29T17:43:25.460-08:00I was lucky to have been at the Denver show.

I ...Greetings ... funny jokes about the musicians. I saw this tour twice in Philly when I was 20. I have mixed feelings about this release as well. The Union Tour video they most likely are going to release is incomplete and has been around for sometime but only in Japan. I bought mine on VHS years ago! No drums solos or great songs like Changes and And You and I. However, despite being incomplete it captured some funny moments ... like the inside joke regarding Squire injecting water in Rabin's stool consequently ruining his solo performance. Rabin expresses "You're very kind" to the audience due to his lack luster performance! <br /><br />I believe there are 3 possibilities for the second complete Union Tour DVD.<br /><br />Union Tour Live in Denver - complete show but really bad sound mix and reckless filming. Some songs available on youtube. <br /><br />Union Tour Live in Denver (Trevor Rabin Edit) - incomplete show but much better mixing and filming. Available on youtube. <br /><br />Union Tour Live in Pensacola - Not too sure about this one but I think it's a complete show limited to only 2 cameras. Snippets can be seen on the YesYears documentary. <br /><br />Personally I'd like to see the Pensacola show as it is rare and they play more songs. You can find it online as a torrent download. <br /><br />Well see soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
