The instrumental played during the opening montage of the audience entering the arena while the band warms up backstage is an edit of the "Lunar Mix" of "Rocket" (found on the 2006 "Deluxe Edition" of Hysteria ) while the instrumental "Switch 625" is played over the credits, along with backstage clips of the band.

The songs "Don't Shoot Shotgun", "Let It Go", "Tear It Down" and "Travelin' Band" were performed and recorded but did not make the VHS or DVD. Also, "Armageddon It" and "Pour Some Sugar on Me" were actually performed and recorded twice for their respective music videos but neither of the first performances of those songs on that night were shown on the home media released. They can be found on a bootleg with the rest of the unmixed soundboard recording and the sound check. ^[1]
