In fact, we opened the show with it for a few years.
I programmed the whole beginning on a synth. Drummer did cymbal washes, guitar player did some swells, & the bass player just maintained a low drone. But, all the music was canned.
But, after the second chorus it came in full live, with pyro & fog.
Nearly the whole song was done in 3 part harmonies, so it was pretty different from Phil's original.
