I got so excited about the B-sides and rarities CD, but really Too Cold Here and Love Torn Us Under are the only tracks I'd be interested in having (the others I'd play occasionally). I don't put live tracks on my MP3 player and don't think I need another two THB remixed/remastered versions.

I'd love the signed book but from the product photo it looks like the photos are ones that we've already had in the Forever Delayed book.

I'd love the vinyl though. I've been looking out for an affordable THB vinyl for ages.

Saw it's signed, so I sighed and pre-ordered.

I hope that You Love Us missing from the Astoria gig tracklist is just a mistake.

& Isn't this the first time they have released a "whole" gig officially, obvious if it is whole?

Nah, I think the gig is incomplete. I knew a decent quality version was played on the radio a while back from the second Astoria gig. No idea how they decided on that tracklist, can't have taken some songs out for radio play because Yes has 'cunt' four words into it!

Surely they recorded the whole gig though? Otherwise they would be better off releasing a copy of the bootleg.

I swear I read that it was the 21st, damn, guess I got over excited.

I don't think I can justify this. I have most of the audio already - it's going to be fifty quid for a book effectively. I know the albums are remastered, but that won't make that much difference to things really. I'd like an official version of the gig, and the Mastertapes, and whatever this version of Revol is, but I think I'll have to pass. The 10th anniversary box set was good enough for me.

I'm doing similar, mine's the 17th December so it'll be an early present when it gets here!

Happy Birthday for Saturday

I'm only guessing based on a) the setlist and b) the fact that a few months ago, some radio show had a decent recording of the 20th (minus a few songs) which was quickly synced up with the video bootleg on someone's YouTube channel. I'm pretty certain the last gig was recorded because clips appear in the US Faster video, but until that surfaces we only have a really bad audio recording.

Manic Street Preachers take. my. money .... I spent about 4 seconds deliberating whether to buy this, given as some have said, I have a decent portion of the content from the singles, or from the Astoria floating around as bootleg etc ... BUT my obsession (healthy??) to collect all things 'Manics' I pre-ordered. I definitely wanted to the vinyl ...

Hmmm ordered it even though I have 99% of what is included already elsewhere. I hate being a completist but the vinyl remastered is worth it.

What I'm thrilled about is that Nicky told me at the Maida Vale gig there would be a box set and and vinyl record, he didn't say they were the same thing (although I will still hunt down a copy of the original one day) and I'm thrilled there's tracks recorded from that session on Disk 4.

Two weeks ago I finally bought a Japanese copy of THB even though I knew all the bonus tracks would be in this box set but I just couldn't help myself.

I know I should post this in the For Sale section, but I've got a couple of copies of unplayed limited edition cd's if anyone is after buying one.
