It seems like the only 2 biggest bitches about the film is the cutting of CONNECTION and too much MICK.
Pretty much sums it up I'd say, there's not THAT much to bitch about all in all.

There's a reason for the Mick focus. Remember that Scorsese said that the movie would include a study of Mick's movements.

Well it's not like Marty made cuts in any of the other songs - but only in Connection.
Cutting just that one makes it jump out of the whole frame. I don't get it at all.
the movie would have lasted maybe 124 minutes instead of 122, hadn't he touched it.
I understand your point of view, but what do we know about the reasons Connection got cut? In case the performance was not up to par throughout, Marty would never publicly admit it. I recall some not all-too positive reviews about Keith performing Connection during the ABB tour, so it is possible that the Beacon performance was not top notch either; of course I am guessing here. On the other hand, I am more disappointed about the absence of I'm Free in particular and also Undercover in the movie.

If he did, then its hardly worth labouring the point for two hours then.
Let's see the bloody band - and leave the studying to some bearded twat with a degree in some '-ology' or other...

Ehem...this is NOT Beacon version.
This is from Oakland 6th November 2006 and listen to Keith's angelic voice on it ! Who cares if it's not perfect, it recovers at the end, it's rock'n'roll! Plus Keith's comment "what a bunch!" ha!
plus even if version from Beacon wasn't the stellar performance I can't really see anybody finding it attractive to cut, butcher it in this way and I'd rather have this off the movie than have it the way it's presented.
Oh and talking about Keith's set on it, did I already say how brilliant and moving You Got The Silver is?
I'm glad the world (at least some part of it) will be able to experience this amazing piece of art that it is.
And Ronnie's great on it too - Keith thanx him afterwards, that's of course sweet to see
