It was real, N. Paul! I remember that too. It was Space during the 7/14/90 show. It was definitely freaking me out! I remember being very relieved when they finally got around to playing Miracle so we could start dancing again. Though the show was great, I'm not sure I would want to relive the on-screen video of that part. Would be hitting skip on the old DVD player.
