here is a video showing a failing vacuum tube or valve as it is called.
it may be a normal thing to see a faint blue light inside the plate or on the glass on some parts of a tube, but when it become like a haze like this it is no good at all, it is often pink color but this tube was more blue. a "gassy" tube is simply that it partly or mostly lost it's vacuum due to air has leaked in to the envelope that cause it to fail, in these cases the "getter" (it is the black or chrome colored part normally at the top of the tube) mostly has disappeared or turned white and is a sign that the tube may fail or already does so it can be a good thing to keep in mind. anyway hope you enjoy the light show :)
