Has anyone seen this video? I´ve seen it twice and enjoyed it pretty much. It describes story of the band members (Keith, Roger, Pete, and John), there are lots of interviews, and comments by Sting, The Edge, Eddie Vedder, and that guy from Oasis. The video tells the story of the band´s members childhood in post-war Britain, their musical influences (american blues, jazz, the kinks), how they met each other. They describe the band´s whole discography, Keith and John´s drug addiction and their tragic death, how the band split and their reunion. They also describe how the band started to smash their equipment, and there are very funny commments. Pete who was an art student replies to the statement that their whole destruction of equipment was a pompous drivel saying: "No! It is auto-destructive art!"
