Watching the Hamburg satellite capture again on my VCR with the tracking cranked all the way up.

Her eyes track someone standing just off to the left of the stage monitor near the engineer's desk.
Right at 02:14 in 'Memory Hatch', she stops singing completely and just stares directly into camera 2.

Did anyone in Hamburg actually attend in person? The hall looked completely empty except for camera crews.

I was 14 when that aired in Germany. My dad thought the satellite link had frozen until the drummer started improvising.
