Disc 2 features a live performance from the The Chemical Wedding tour. The show is entitled Scream For Me Brazil and was filmed in São Paulo, Brazil in 1999. The footage is not an official recording, but is actually taken from the feed that supplied the screen inside the venue and so is not of the usual quality expected of a live DVD. The band for this show includes Bruce's songwriting partner Roy Z on guitar, fellow Iron Maiden member Adrian Smith also on guitar, Eddie Casillas on bass and Dave Ingraham on the drums. This was Bruce's last solo tour before he and Adrian Smith rejoined Iron Maiden.
