    THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE LIVE AT MONTEREY - theatrical version??

    http://hendrix.guide.pagesperso-orange.fr
    I've been to this site a million times...but I never or don't remember reading this about a 'theatrical version'
    appears to have happened after/with this DVD release and before the 2008 Bluray release.
    anyone attend a theatrical showing of this; or have any info.; where it was shown or how long it ran..?
    Thank you

    THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE LIVE AT MONTEREY
    Release date October 16, 2007

    Killing Floor (Burnett),
    Foxy Lady, Like A Rolling Stone (Dylan),
    Rock Me Baby (King/arr. Hendrix),
    Hey Joe (Roberts),
    The Wind Cries Mary,
    Purple Haze,
    Wild Thing (Chip Taylor)

    + A Second Look (alternate angles of some numbers)
    + "Stone Free", "Like A Rolling Stone" - February 25, 1967 at Chelmsford Corn Exchange, England !!!!
    + American Landing (23 minutes of interview extracts with various famous participants which leads into the concert)
    + Music, Love and Flowers (7 minute interview with Lou Adler)

    This is the ultimate Jimi Hendrix Experience film, with the band setting out to show who's the boss.
    Jimi is in exhuberant form as "The Wild Man Of Rock" and puts on his whole show, pyrotechnics
    and all. Most of the footage had been available on videocassette and DVD prior to this but this edition
    was quite an event in October 2007, coinciding with a CD re-release of the show.
    The film was shown in theatres with even Mitch, Billy and Gary Moore playing live as an added attraction.

    Well, they played together once, at The Hippodrome in London, to coincide with a premiere screening of THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE LIVE AT MONTEREY, i believe, (or maybe just to coincide with the dvd release, i don't remember). Whether that means that a special "theatrical version" was prepared or circulated, i don't know.

    That Gary Moore / Mitchell / Cox show is coming out on dvd in october. In reality, they only played 3 songs together as an encore, with Billy singing 2 of them. Most of the set was Moore playing Jimi songs, with Darrin Mooney on drums and Dave Bronze on bass.
