For both these videos, I synced it at the clapper board at the start (See 00:23 of the Baba video). Somewhere on the DVD it's mentioned that one of their film telecine machines was down or running slow or something like that, in reference to the WGFA footage. Furthermore portions of the lightshow were filmed sans audience the next day, and there were some bass & drum overdubs. Not so much on the Baba video, and that's why it's appears more 'spot-on'. Cheers & thanks! :)
@DaveDaranjo oh man, I was so disappointed that the light show footage was not in this... of course I cheered up when the Moon footage started up again. Thanks so much for posting this... it is one of the most incredible rock footage projects to me, I wish someone would write a book just on this particular song and this Shepperton footage.
I heard the Who at the Astrodome in Houston in '86. The acoustics were not too good. But at the very end from the solo Synthesizer organ sound to Townshends guitar you could Really hear a rock down sound I won't forget.
This vid is really amazing! Although the Who sang Hope I Die Before Get Old, I feel I am lucky to be able to live long enough to watch this vid in such a way!
is there any chance you could find the multiple camera angles for the who are you recording? i would love to see keith doing those fills in the middle instead of pete on piano
Oh man...thanks so much for putting this up. I've thought about how cool it would be to see all the angles at once, but didn't know how. What editing program did you use?
I was watching in the Special Features of this DVD that there were many, many different angles and takes of WGFA and their original sync machine (whatever it's called) may have been faulty. This becomes most apparent during the light-show sequence. I think my Baba O'Riley edit syncs more perfectly, but god is WGFA fun.
I'd like to post my full, 13-minute edit of this, which includes all the footage from the heads and tails of the camera angles. I've seen other videos on YouTube that are more than 10-minutes long. How do they get online?

John's bass sounds really good... probably the most underrated bass player of all time.

@pswallace wow, you really think he is underrated? who else is there?

@pswallace Wouldn't exactly call Entwistle underrated. I would say, he's widly considered the greatest of all time, a title he fully deserves.

Of course, by this time, they weren't playing to Keith's drums anyway. His sweat was rotting the chains off of the kick pedals.

No, bollocks, the sync is off a tick. Otherwise, nice footage and the "kids will be finished" nip is stellar.

I disagree, I don't like that piano sound Entwistle got when he shifted over to carbon-fibre active basses.
