yep here we go again - us fans not in the UK cannot legally buy this. brilliant.

i wouldn't be surprised to find that Sony are actively looking for ways to actively block certain areas within the UK from buying it too.

Oh great.

In this holiday season, I'll have to rely on Manics fans generosity then. (ILLEGAL DOWNLOADING IS BAD, KIDS)

yes it is. whereas a record label refusing to allow legal sales of downloads to fans around the world who are prepared and happy to pay for a record from one of their top acts is a sound business model.

For the benefit of Lee and anyone else interested, drop me a PM around the time that this is due out and I'll set up a proxy server so that with a quick change to your webbrowser settings, you can connect to their site via my British IP address, and fool Amazon into thinking that you're accessing their site from the UK. All I ask in return is that you click through to Amazon using my website's affiliate link, so I can earn some commission on the sale.

thanks in advance!

The live sound is so tinny, flat, muddy and one-dimensional these days, I could probably do a better job than that dozy looking bloke on the desk.
But do we know if the officially released mixes are always as they were on the night? I've heard live albums (Morrissey, Squeeze) mixed by Bob Clearmountain and they sound phenomenal.

Brilliant choice of live songs!

Amazon seem to have confused themselves into thinking it's available on Friday the 3rd. Shame it isn't really as that's the celebratory day of my 'unholy arrival on planet Earth'. Or Birthday, as some of you may call it.

Cheers for letting us know about that.

BBC Live Version of SKON? Does anyone know whether it's that the Later version?

I really want an official live recording without McCulloch.

Release one album then break up - check
Never write a lovesong - check
Never use a song in an advert - check
Never do a live album - check

Oh there's so many more

A Manics song has been used in an advert?
