Member<p>This isn’t a topic about overdubbing of the music, that’s pretty obvious on the DVD. What I never noticed is that the visuals aren’t completely live either; they did extra filming at The Alley for stage shots. Was this well-known and I just never realized it until I was watching the DVD today?

MemberYou’ll notice if you pay attention to the cuts from stage shots to audience shots. Sometimes the band members will change positions or be doing vastly different actions; I thought maybe the band was re-playing the songs live. But the lighting is also vastly different, and for some songs, so poor on the stage that it’s clear it wasn’t shot during a live show.
There’s a dead giveaway in the banter before She Has a Girlfriend now; the lighting sucks, and Dan and John are literally just standing dead in the background, which they would never be doing live…and aren’t when it cuts to the audience. -

MemberOnce you realize it, Aaron makes it pretty obvious. All the times he’s obviously being overdubbed and not even trying to hide that he’s pretending to play.

AngryOpossumMemberAaron passively mentions the continuity errors during the audio commentary … but I thought it was just choppy editing or something.
