YouTube rip.
This footage was found back in 2023 when Daniel Graham's private collection of super8 films was leaked due to poor security on LOLA Clips, a footage archival website (so never use them to archive films!). After that, this film kind of got forgotten about by many, including me, since no one tried syncing it to audio. Almost two years later, here we are. Better late than never! Now about the film itself, the quality is really good if you can get past the compression. It also features rare clips of Salmacis and, to my knowledge, the only footage of Ballad of Big. Daniel also filmed 16 seconds of an interview with Mike, which is useless as Super 8 film doesn't usually record audio! I used audio from the show in Montreal two nights later where necessary as the audio recording of this show is incomplete.

Show memories
First time ever seeing Genesis. I was still upset about being stiffed on a ticket to see them in Buffalo back in March. So, an hour and a half drive from Niagara Falls got us into Toronto by mid-afternoon. We walked into a relatively empty Exhibition Stadium and made our way up front to within 30 feet of the stage, on Tony's side. I still remember watching Brand X (opening act) jam for 45 minutes with Phil & Chester watching from the side of the stage. As the evening wore on and the sunlight disappeared, Genesis took the stage. I can still remember the opening notes to Eleventh Earl Of Mar, blue lights showering the stage and green lasers from behind the drums shooting out into the evening sky. 2 hours later, it was over. We had some great conversation for the ride back. [afterglow]
