Van Halen's 1995 Balance Tour was dubbed the "Ambulance" Tour by Eddie Van Halen due to his hip injury caused by avascular necrosis, and his brother, drummer Alex Van Halen wearing a neck brace for most of the tour, due to rupturing three vertebrae in his neck. Despite the injuries, the tour was a huge success for both the band and their fans. The band also introduced a new stage element to the act for the tour: the Jumbotron. Initially Alex’s idea, this was the band’s first time touring with a video production. The Jumbotron was a giant screen, similar to a television set, located above Alex. This was only the second time the setup had been used in arenas. Barbara Streisand was the first to use it in this manner. A six-man video team using four operating cameras and three point-of-view cameras, two of which were located on Al’s drum kit, filmed the band, the crowd, and projected video clips and images onto the giant screen, including the clever little Pop-ups from the band's "Right Now" MTV music video (i.e. "Right Now you should be paying attention to the lyrics", "Right Now people who can't read are bumming" and "Right Now Eddie has his hands full.").

Canadian Van Halen fans were especially lucky to view a two-night Pay-Per-View event live from Toronto. The excellent recording has never been released in the states, so it's hard not to consider it a rarity for sharing, Right Now.
