Thanks, David. It's good to be back. Have been lurking around here but haven't posted in a while. Yikes, I sound like some kind of psycho stalker or something!
I'm sure I'll lose most of you at this point but in case any of you have obsessed over the concert footage from the Tusk Doc as much as I have for years and years....After getting the soundboard for the 11/6 show, it was fairly easy to figure out what night each of the songs were used in the final film. One thing I noticed was they used the video of The Chain from the 6th but used the audio from the 5th. Stevie's bun was also noticeably smaller on the 5th. I only knew this after getting a video boot of something and in it was an alternate version of "The Chain" - completely different angles and editing including a close up shot of Stevie that starts out with her face and then the camera circles around her. An odd shot from the film as I don't see this anywhere else. Anyway, I remember thinking to myself that Stevie's huge onion head was now a mere head of garlic on the the 5th. She seemed to alternate between the big bun and smaller bun during the early parts of the tour.
If you listen to the audio from the doc version, Stevie flubs the "run in the shadows, damn your love" line and in the video boot I have the camera was right on her when she while she was flubbing. The 6th performance from the soundboard is different - no flub (although I recall that maybe she was a few seconds late starting that line). I also noticed was a sync issue during the "uh huh" line after the first chorus from Stevie. Stevie cuts away from the mic a bit short while the "uh huh" is still heard. Lord, I think I have too much time on my hands!!!
I messed around with Final Cut and synched up the audio from the soundboard and the doc video part and it matches perfectly. See, I have been a video editing nerd as long as I could remember and always pick up on these sort of things.
I also noticed during "Sara" that some of the video they used were from other parts of the song that were cut. During the part before the "Drowning in the sea of love" where Stevie is walking away from the mic and heading toward Mick and then walking backward to the mic again is actually the video from the part before "Hold on the night is coming..." And the shot of Lindsey and Chris during the "but if you build your house" is actually them while they were singing "Sara." You can tell Christine is actually singing or saying something and I always wondered what was going on there. Again, for hahas, I synced these parts up and they completely match.
One of these days I want to make my own remastered Tusk Documentary with the real audio from the soundboard where it doesn't have all that annoying audience filler.
That boot I have also has video of Stevie back in her Rhiannon outfit at the end of the concert "This is some band, don't you think? Good night you guys"
Not sure what night that's from lol.
