The Shrine Auditorium looks warmer in this new version. Not brighter, just more alive. You can actually see the stage crew finishing their last-minute shuffles before the lights land where they’re supposed to. Waits steps forward with those familiar, unusual movements of his arms and legs. Small thing, but you notice it now in a way you couldn’t before. I caught myself pausing the video once or twice just to take in the scene.
Familiar Growl, New Perspective
“Gun Street Girl” follows with more swing than I remembered. Almost casual, like the band locked into the groove quicker than expected. This full, cleaner version switches between multiple camera angles as he starts barking “Gun Street” lyrics through a megaphone.
There’s a stretch in the middle where Waits launches into a (real?) story about a man floating in a lawn chair thousands of feet up. Again, just being able to see his facial expressions makes it fun.
Band in Focus - And a Surprise Guest
One addition I noticed this time that I hadn’t before is none other than county legend Bonnie Raitt. She had performed earlier at the benefit, and she strolled out onto stage behind Tom to play guitar during the final number.
If nothing else, the video reminds you how much gets lost when footage sits in the dark for too long. Nice to see this one again without squinting.
