Clem,
  I want to thank you very much for doing that.I just read your message 
today and as a fan from the beginning ,it gave me chills.Since I couln't be 
there,I do hope the dvd is a good representation of those shows or as you 
said,both shows complete[loaded with extras of course.]They deserve it.And 
so do the fans.There has yet to be a live show of theirs available on 
video.And for everyone on this list-this is a musical group that has to be 
seen to be believed.No one has more fun at their shows than the band 
themselves.
   Thanks again

   Gene
