Notes:
* Two angles for the end of DWD and the first 12 minutes of Gin.
** No video of Hood, instead there is 8-9 minutes worth of footage from the way into the festival followed by a slideshow.

Set one plus all of DWD and most of Bathtub is very good quality. There is minimal generation loss. The second angle for bathtub eventually becomes the only angle and there are some issues with the tracking on the VHS. Coupling this with the fact that the cameraman sucks, some people may find this to be not up to their standards. This video is handheld, and like I said, the cameraman is not very good (worse than the BC DVD), but this will be present on any copy of the show you could find. Judging by the relative rareness of this VHS, and the quality of the show (and subsequent SBD discs), the DVD was made. Enjoy.B
