In addition to the song Pray, the ‘Behind The Scenes’ chapter of the Extra Features section includes some great extreme close-ups of the Yamaha custom 12-string bass. These were filmed during the band’s sound check. There is also an extreme close-up of Ty Tabor’s tooth brush. Yes, rock stars are regular people who brush their teeth too.

This film was recorded using a single hand-held camcorder at the Astoria in London on May 6, 1990. The only copy of this show that the band possessed was a 3rd generation VHS tape. Audio from the radio performance was spliced together with this video footage. While the technical aspects are lacking, the end result is powerful and a great showcase for the band.

Doug Pinnick played a left-handed Hamer 12-string bass one on song, ‘In The New Age’, which is included in the bonus footage.

A review of this show was published in the June / July 1990 issue of Riff Raff Magazine.
