I think it did not need the juxtaposition from the old and new New York scenes, just make it 2 hours longer with only Martin Rev, Gira, Branca, Thurston, Lee, Lydia, Arto, Sclavunos, and Thrilwell talking the good ol' days. I hung on every word that came out of their mouths. I was surpassed with Gira's tone of voice, I always envisioned a more raspy Tom Waits-like sounds to come out of his mouth.
