This DVD contains two pro-shot recording broadcasts of the same source, with some differences.
One is from E! TV and has an incomplete, edited version of "Home"; it is missing approximately 30 seconds of the outro to the song. Other than that, it is a complete recording. It has better sound than the MTV version. It is 29:01 in length. This VHS also has two interviews with Dave and Andy approximately 17 minutes in length each. This DVD only has Dave's interview. One of my torrents on DIME has both interviews; see below for a link. The other recording is from MTV and is a complete recording. It has worse sound than the E! version, but it is still quite good. "Never Let Me Down Again" ends abruptly and misses a few of Dave's parting lines (but no music), "I guess we'll see you next time, thanks for coming, goodnight". It is 29:37 in length. Both versions have similar video quality; see sample screenshots.
