Earlier this week, Ron recieved a gift of a DVD (or perhaps it was a VHS) ofa show that had early performances of R.EM., Tom Waits, etc.  Does anyone remember what this is?  I had the show on in the background and only caught a piece of it so I wasn't sure what they were talking about.  In any case, it would probably make a great Christmas present for my brother.Any help would be appreciated!

I bought this for my husband's birthday in September. There is a lot of great stuff on it, including an old Rolling Stones interview when Keith and Mick were real young. Keith's teeth are so bad! The Iggy Pop, Roxy Music, Ramones and rare XTC live are priceless.

I bought the DVD a year ago and was struck by how many of Ron's faves were represented, that's what inspired me to bring a copy to the show. However, there is a British version of the DVD that has a lot more acts on it. I don't own it, because it's in PAL format:<a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005M6ON/026-6893050-3666051">http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005M6ON/026-6893050-3666051</a>
