Hola folks.
I'm a few margaritas down the street from a few more margaritas. Ha.
Just finished watching SCENES YOU KNOW BY HEART.
Imagine that. I loved it!
Here are my initial thoughts:
First off, the menu screen is cool. The sharks in the water have permanently hypnotized me while the volcano is blowing up in the backround.
Having watched this thing from A to Z as we enjoyed Boat Drinks, I had a thought about halfway through the viewing:
I'm a Rock Star!
What do I mean by that? There were enough places being skipped to from song to song that I was getting a nice buzz while simultaneously thinking, "Where the hell are we now?"
The nomadic lifestyle of a rock star performing somewhere, then waking up somewhere else to perform again with a new backdrop and crowd.
Granted, there weren't a thousand different places, but once you jump from Anguilla to Vegas to Hawaii and so on, you get the point.
Anyways. That was random, but that was the random thought in my head.
What else? Others have said it, but I'll have to agree: IT IS WORTH HAVING FOR THE "HE WENT TO PARIS" segment IN PARIS. That was probably the DEEPEST performance I've ever seen from Jimmy. Very powerful. If you were there LIVE for that, good for YOU!
That song also made me think of my new friends WAYNE and CATHI of Miramar Beach and how they were lucky enough to attend the Freddy and the Fishsticks Show in New Orleans not too long ago.
Intimate shows are the best!
I saw Bob Dylan in a small venue and that was great. Anyways. I digress (as you can tell).
Overall, a fun and very worthwhile dvd to own for me. It was almost as if Jimmy told me, "So Ryan..........you own shirts, glasses, cd's and so much other sh!t of mine, but YOU DON'T HAVE THE LIVE DVD'S?!?! Well then, LET ME HELP YOU OUT MY FRIEND!!!!!! Here are the cliff notes from most of the dvd's and a bonus or two for ya! PUT THIS DVD IN YOUR BLENDER and ENJOY!!!!!!!!"
And, to think I was in a really bad mood before I put the dvd in tonight.
Thank you for that great music that we all love! It helped me find my smile again tonight.
