So it's taken me a couple years to track this down, but I finally ran across someone that had a 1st gen vhs tape that they transferred to DVD for me. It is a video of the 8/15/93 festival in Hawaii in which Layne Staley joined Tool on stage during Opiate. Some of you may have heard the soundboard audio recording that was liberated in the last couple years in which it is tough to hear Layne's vocals. Luckily, they are much clearer on this video. Pretty sure this is the only video recording of Layne joining Tool on stage, nevermind the fact that you get to watch the ocean in the background behind the stage. The entire video includes many shots of the crowd and festival in general in addition to:
Tool
Prison Sex (cut)
Swamp Song (cut)
Sweat
Opiate (w/Layne Stayley)
Flood (cut)
Jerk-Off (cut)
Fishbone
? Part of a song
Stone Temple Pilots
Crackerman (cut)
So, anybody interested in a trade? I've noticed there's talk of quite a few 2006 recordings, but I have yet to see anything other than the 3/10/06 and 5/18/06 shows. I would have gone up and taped Chicago if I hadn't been there the week before to see Tool. It's been 10 years since I've seen an AIC show, can't wait for the opportunity to tape one again.
