    I thought the song before this was even better.

    The energy coming from the band is incredible.

    I recorded this live and watched the recording more times than I can remember.

    What an awesome moment that was.

    What’s MTV? ;)
  • Its amazing to me now, but at the time I was like "Whos the old guy they are playing with? He is sick". I didn't really know who Neil was before that moment.

    This was my first ever memory of PJ. I remember watching it with my Dad and he said "Wow these guys are f'n awesome". Still holds true to this day.

    I remember up until about 2000 or so MTV would do “best of” themed videos I think once a week. Every so often it was “best live performance” and this would take #1 every time I can remember.
