    I thought that was a typical Bruce performance, I'm not a huge fan of his, but he didn't "pop" himself out or anything. Thats how his shows are. He runs around, is full of energy and dramatics. Not sure where your coming from at all with that one.

    I think he needs to put on his big boy undies and get over it! I think about everyone who buys this knows what the original version is anyway!
    I mean really why edit?
    I wonder if they edited the part about her that is before SOLAT? :roll:

    If this is the version that will be on the DVD then the "OH BETH" has been obviously edited and it sounds ridiculous. Thankfully not as ridiculous as "The Boss" sounded and acted during his lame and embarrassing Super Bowl performance, but still bad. As for Bruce, can you say S E L L O U T ? I mean, did he really need to run across the stage and do a knee slide then top it off with his momentum carrying his crotch into the cameraman and into our homes??? They should leave the Super Bowl to pop acts but as long as respectable artists are willing to accept the offer and act like pop acts and make us cringe with embarrassment and shock, then they'll keep having them. I couldn't believe my eyes and ears. Is nothing sacred anymore? I hope, you know who, never go down this route. That would be the end of it for me.

    it sounds very funny at the beth part, I always liked it previous, that part has now gone from extreme love for someone to a bit hate/hurtful.

    I find it weird that they edited that part, I just watched it and i couldn't help but laugh... though for a fan who has never seen this (if they exist) you wouldn't be able to tell unless you have seen the original a few times before.. I always though that was sweet of him to call out her name during that performance, it was spontaneous so it added to the song imo...

    It definitely doesnt ruin the song or anything but after watching that bit a couple of times and specially since you can see Ed's lips clearly say Beth but then you hear that grunt on top.. LOL I couldn't help but laugh :lol:


    Maybe the band thought we wouldn't notice..... on the other hand, if the band thought we wouldn't notice then they don't know us to well yet - LOL!

    terrible.

    editing performances, cutting songs, just embarrassing.

    Florida 1994, Ed endorses the death penalty for a murderer who he read about in the paper. if they ever open the vault and release that show, will it be edited out? truly sad.

    I watched the DVD once, but I wont watch it again. I'd rather watch the complete, real version.

    Former partner's name edited out = respect for new partner... get over it. Ed obviously did.

    But we're not buying his partner. We're buying a performance of their music which occurred in 1992. If they're giving it away for free, hey, no problem. Change all you want. But they're charging for this thing... a lot. They simply should have disclosed "this is an altered version of what aired on MTV". Then let the CUSTOMERS make the choice on whether or not to give them their money. That's all.

    Kinda! It's like an altered tattoo. It's like you know that millions of people are familiar with your tattoo, and love it's craftsmanship... and you say "hey, give me money and I'll give you a copy of my tattoo!" and we gladly pay you and all get the copy, but it's not the same tattoo, and it's missing something over here, and it's missing a big part over there. Well, for some of us, we thought we were getting a copy of the real thing.

    Ya -- I was a little disappointed with the Unplugged DVD, but what are you gonna do?

    When they get into Kiss territory and re-record songs in the studio for live albums, then I might fly off the handle a bit -- then again, I have a few dozen unedited PJ DVDs to tide me over should that day ever come.

    I am the only one who is surprised that the Ten Club now promotes the stick man figure, when just a few years ago they made a dig at it for being too cliche.

    That is more important than the Springsteen silly-rant!

    The last couple months, I've been thinking "surely I'm not the only person who remembers just 5 years ago or so, when they had the Ten Club contest 'design the Ten Club flag' and they said entries could not feature the stickman logo??" Remember that? I can't believe there's so much stickman stuff. I used to have a vinyl sticker of the stickman on my car back in the day...I took off the Pearl Jam part, and just had the stickman. But that was even about 10 years ago!

    I can't say I'm happy with the Oceans edit. I haven't watched my DVD yet (just came last night), but I think that is uncool. Any live performance, or recorded music, is a snapshot in time. To go back and take stuff out just doesn't seem right. People's lives change in that time, but not the performance, which happened once. It'd be like if the BO'B mixes on the new stuff took out all the "fuck"s because the band and more of its listeners now have kids. Guess what, most of us are not with the same partner today that we may have been in 1992! It doesn't mean it wasn't a part of our lives.

    Still, the band can do whatever it wants. :)

    I agree with you. I havent been to a bruce show yet, but from what my music industry professor (also an employee of the E-Street Band) said that brice does all sorts of cheesy things during his shows and is very energetic.

    It is BULLSHIT to hear that the Unplugged show has been edited. I have not gotten my SDE yet but I cannot believe RITFW is not being shown!

    So how about the end of Black when Eddie is screaming, "We belong together!" Should that be edited out?Because he was probably talking about somebody (ex-girlfriend) who is not a part of his life now.

    They took that out and overdubbed it with a series of grunts. Now it's "Grunt Grunt-grunt Doh-grunt-err."

    Just kidding. I haven't even watched it yet, I've just read about the editing on here.

    Too bad they edited Oceans and did not put Rockin in the Free World on the DVD. I have not gotten mine...it is set to be delivered tomorrow but lucky for me I have the unedited version of MTV Unplugged so I can watch this in its original form.

    Eddie Vedder is the new George Lucas.

    For VS they will rerealese it with Boom on organ for 75% of the songs. And they will CG in Matts face over Daves.

    We really got screwed by not having the full, unedited Unplugged performance released on DVD. There is no excuse for it if you ask me.

    One of the few Nirvana releases that was actually done very well was the release of the Unplugged performance on DVD. You have both the broadcast and complete, unaired versions. That's exactly how it should have been considering how widely bootlegged/circulated it was.
