I was wondering about who da fuck are some of them, some are fans and some are easy like Iggy Pop, Johnny Depp, Sir Elton John, Pete Townshend, Bjornulf Vik (IORR Editor and IORR.ORG webmaster), an Angus Young lookalike or Angus ???

That was Angus.

Why do you want a transcript of what they are all saying?

Probably because the audio doesn't come over well on YouTube.

I still can't understand some of what is said.

I thought the video intro and gorilla drumming was too long and the least exciting intro of any tour on record......But the shows exceeded my expectations quality wise. Can't wait for the PPV properly mixed on DVD

The drumming tricked me into thinking they were FINALLY going to open with SFTD!!!!!!!  :nomames

I'd like a transcript too. Only thing I understood was Iggy comparing Keef's riffs to getting smacked in the head with a mackerel.  Classic.

They did a similar drum intro on the Love You Live album.

The fans are all just saying how much they love the band.

Yes, I recall the PPV the audio of this video coming over as garbled.
Ya think with all of the technology today this could have been handled better.
I thought the drummer thing was cool, it created a great vibe, and LJ is correct, it should have
launched SFTD, or some sort of tie in song, like was done with Not Fade Away in '94.    
But again, what do I know?

It wasn't garbled on my system, but it was very low. It seemed they were using the microphones on stage and in the arena to relay it to the viewers at home instead of taking it right from the broadcast booth. There was lots of ambient sound. There was atually nothing of real value being said anyway, and I remember thinking to myself - "GET ON WITH THE SHOW!"

Yes - thats correct. Justin, Bluzdude, Paulywaul, Harlemshuffler amongst others

The funny guy with the VL shirt and long hair is Monkeytonk Man. They did a casting call for fans in London and LA (not sure about New York)

And that is indeed Angus Young.

In the PPV the audio is pretty good, check any of the on-line DVDs and make the transcript

I have one of the largest VHS archives I know of. And how else was I going to record the show? I don't have a DVR.

No, that was a separate casting.

Regarding the ad on Craigslist, during the PPV they would occassionally cut to various attractive young women dancing right up front who would invariably make
eyes at the camera. These bimbettes were not as hilariously obvious as during "Shine a Light", but still hilariously obvious.

Go grab either one of the Grandfather Records IEM recordings of the London shows...the voices on the intro are crystal clear!
