I have heard a rumour that the drums have been re-recorded? is that correct?. I hope "Poleaxed", "Colt 45" and "Spent All Summer" aren't just early versions of tracks we already know.

I love the official description of "BOOK: 28 page booklet… "

Apparently with the mid-priced one some places are doing a slightly cut-down bonus item -

BOOK: Booklet: Pamphlet: Leaflet: Note: Flyer: Receipt.

It commemorates the price you paid and where you bought it from, and is customised for every purchase individually, it's amazing.

Ok so the price wasn't as bad as I was expecting actually. May have just pre-ordered it.

Ha ha, this is very true! Don't forget SATT had girls in state of limited dress! Maybe Nicky is a closet Naturalist

No chance, they'd bemaking more of it if they'd rerecorded anything.

Nope, everything on the Legacy Edition can be found on the box set.

In retrospect, the only thing that could have made this set better and pretty much 100% complete would've been the inclusion of the US remakes of the GT tracks (and the 2003 ME, I spose), but quite frankly I'm really happy with what we've got already.

That was my first thought when I saw that box last night "where the fuck can I put that big nipple?"

$70 CAND. Not a chance! Also, curious as to what some of you thought the 'book' might be if not a booklet.

Think I'll have to get the box set. I know it's not worth three times as much as the Legacy edition but it is my favourite album and all...

It said book here: http://www.superdeluxeedition.com/ne...track-listing/

I was expecting something along the lines of the book that came with the PFAYM shoebox. Or a smaller Death of a Polaroid style photo book.
