I enjoyed it for the footage we haven't seen before and shots of the japanese fans completely lost in the music, which was great.
Doesn't outstay its welcome either being just shy of 38 minutes.
I quite liked the narrative, it combines nicely with the low-fi look of the poor quality VHS to give it the feel of a faded memory.

And flowed, flowered for him, fluid neon origami trick, the unfolding of his distanceless home, his country, transparent 3D chessboard extending to infinity.
Inner eye opening to the stepped scarlet pyramid of the Eastern Seaboard Fission Authority burning beyond the green cubes of Mitsubishi Bank of America,
and high and very far away he saw the spiral arms of military systems, forever beyond his reach.
And somewhere he was laughing, in a white-painted loft, distant fingers caressing the deck, tears of release streaking his face.
