With the Miracle Year box set coming out is there a chance of getting a dvd of the 30th Jan show? Would Numero do such a thing?

Two of the tracks with accompanying video have been in circulation for years and it looks like the most pro shot footage of the band
Seems like a no brainer if it still exists!

I'm kind of assuming that if it could have been done, it would have been part of the box set.

Hi all

Further to this, the new MOJO has a five page feature on Sugar and two further pages on The Miracle Year with Bob and Greg.

In the latter, Greg says early on that they “haven’t been able to locate the video “.

Numero began searching high and low for the video recording not long after SYD was released. At one point when John Giorno was still alive they asked me if I could track him down and find out if he knew what happened to the videotapes. Don't ask me why they thought I would know how to contact Giorno, since my only connection to him was that I owned the Hüsker-related Giorno Poetry System products--I'd never met or corresponded with the guy. So I sent Numero a scan of the credits listed on the "It's Clean" videocassette box. I may also have suggested some other people to check with. Unfortunately, none of those leads proved fruitful. The location (or fate) of the video masters remains a mystery.

Oh man, that is a tragedy. I hope it turns up somewhere

Are there any details knocking about on who made the promos for Makes No Sense At All/Love is All Around?  Pretty sure Minnesota Miracle footage shows up very briefly around 1:14 

A chunk of Heaven Hill appears on the MTV report on Candy Apple Grey too 
Seems to be the same edit as the  ‘Its Clean…’ footage. 

Did it get used anywhere else?🤔🤔🤔

Apols Paul, I should have consulted the mighty database first!:
