Good show but that intro by Whoopi Goldberg is cringeworthy.shes one of those really dumb people that think if they pause between sentences it will sound like they’re saying something profound.
“We’re here to see the band ....who our parents warned us about ...now our parents are here with us..no genius,the mom and dads from the 60s didn’t become Stones fans and start going to shows.
Why the modern version of The Rolling Stones feel the need to always have these celebrities glomming onto them I’ll never understand.
They got heavily criticized for having Truman Capote and princess Radizwell on the 72 tour,those people were the Sex Pistols compared to these Hollywood phonies they seem to have their arms around every other day.

The one thing I remember was the muffled sound. And sound is very important when listening to music. I tell you...
Definitely one of my favorite post-'89 versions. Almost perfect in every way.
No, you're not wrong. The VHS and DVD sound is pretty terrible.Quote

Okey. I can only describe my initial opinion when listening to the PPV. This one sound better though. Maybe I'm only missing Bill's bass? Keith's solo is horrible by the way. And I won't go on about Mick's singing...

It's great when you're watching the video because it's a great live document, but if you try listening to just an audio feed, it's almost unlistenable.
There's just a lack of depth and clarity to the audio feed. The drums are muffled and weak-sounding and the guitars are a bit thin.Quote

Terrible, because you don't like the clean VL-sound or muffled?
The bootleg-cd sounds like shit, but the VHS sounds okay, imo.
And even with the substandard audio, this might be my FAVORITE live Stones concert to revisit (post '89). It's got such a wonderful sense of fun energy to it. You can practically feel the sweat from the humid Miami night drip down the back of your neck while watching it.Quote

You're right, Keefriff99. Dandy set me off track. The sound is muffled and flat. Unlistenable. No doubt about that. Another strange thing is that sound and picture doesn't correlate. Especially visible when Charlie hits the drums. The drum sound, by the way, seems to be caught in a mist. As if the drum sticks are padded with cotton. I almost get the feeling it's playback. Like Der Spiegel did...
Here is another track from Miami that, I think, proves my view: [www.youtube.com]

I see the Mensa society has weighed in.Whoopi Goldberg is a perfect example of what we call in America a “celebritard”.
Her list of moronic statements is so extensive she has a greatest hits,let’s revisit one of her classics,
She actually said (on live t.v. no less)that what Roman Polanski did wasn’t like a rape-rape.drugging a 13 year old,having sex with the incapacitated child and then fleeing the country to avoid prosecution is,in Whoopi’s empty skull,not that bad.i mean, he didn’t jump out of the bushes and tackle the girl...
To even think some shit like that you have to be a fckng moron,to sit there dressed like a bag lady and say it out loud borders on retardation.
Again,I wish the Stones would stay clear of these types.

The Sound is fine to my ears , loved this performance and tour , loved the design of the stage also. I seen 2 shows during this tour ,the first one was a perfect Saturday mid August during the 2nd day of Woodstock 1994 which we had to drive on the empty and desolate NYS Thruway to get to Giants Stadium and what a great show it was . Then the second show we attended was in the cavernous Syracuse Carrier Dome , which was another fine performance which we enjoyed and there was a rarity which was during Brown Sugar, Ronnie did the famous fill a-la Love You Live as Mr. Bobby Keys was ill .Which this was only the second time no Bobby Blowing his magical Sax during Brown Sugar which was the Tour Opener in Philly in 1981 .Then of course we purchased the Pay Per View from Miami later in the tour with all of the special guest which was a nice treat . Great MemoriesQuote

So how come I hear every instrument loud and clear on this old conversion from VHS?
It doesn't happen often, but this time Ronnie starts a song, btw

You believe all the people the Stones were hanging with in the 70s were better people, regarding sex with underaged girls?
I believe the sales # would be consistent with all of the other From The Vault series shows . Just us diehards that snap up anything they put out save for the countless repackaging of the greatest hit catalogue which they toss in a unrealesed track that we all want .Quote

I was re-listening to You Got Me Rocking, and there were points during the song where the snare was completely inaudible...the drums were reduced to a dull thud in the background as everything else overwhelmed it.
It's obvious that this show was released on VHS with the original PPV audio feed, no frills, nothing. Who knows if all the stereo tracks are even available for re-mixing? Is it even worth it at this point? How many copies would sell?
I think they were playing Sympathy every night that tour...they probably dropped Love is Strong for the duets with Robert Cray and Bo Diddley.Quote

I'm not clear... is this Voodoo Lounge show the next official from the Vault release? I'd love a Voodoo Lounge show on blu ray, but I wish they'd do a different show than the this PPV show that we have all seen a million times. I'd love to see a different Voodoo Lounge show that I've never seen.
One little thing that bugged me the night I watched the PPV show that original night... the had been playing Love is Strong and that night they subbed in a War Horse (Sympathy) for it in the set list. I was loving Love Is Strong that tour! Reason #1 why I want a different Voodoo Lounge show as an official release. We have enough versions of Sympathy... give me Love Is Strong!
