That stinks! Well, the things that stuck out in my mind were (not in order) to the end of the program, fleshing out why there was only one video done for TBF - mainly during that time Steve Perry had had his degenerative bone condition kick in and even though in enormous pain, did the video for WYLAW, having his leg and hip packed between takes (I'd like to emphasize that he wasn't maudlin about it, just saying what happened) He wasn't looking for sympathy per se. Also the frustration of the manager and band over the lack of being able to do more publicity.

Steve Perry, earlier on, saying that he thought the band felt threatened by his attempts to preserve his relationship with Sherry (traveling w. her instead of the band).

Herbie Herbert (to my suprise) also not being thrilled with Schon's choice to do a solo, warning Schon that it would push Perry into doing a solo, and that Schon would "rue the day".

Seeing more of Steve Smith's committment to his music, and struggling to decide whether to do TBF or not, and then, when Perry left Jrny, also making the choice to concentrate on his band/jazz. I don't think he left per se because of Perry personally, but got the impression that he was so torn, and wanted to follow his own star if the band wasn't the original lineup anyway. Nice man, classy.

Ross's financial troubles re bad investments - sad.

Seeing early pictures of the very first singer, and really early pre-Perry footage.

I am sure there is more, I didn't see anything earht-shaking but it was very interesting and I thought helped fill a lot out - better than the first, shorter, BTM!!!!
