Jesus that's just pathetic. £34.99 too, ha! I'll wait until it's about half price, not in any rush to get this one sadly.

Given how Nicky has said that his archives hold more TIMT stuff than anything else, I wonder if we’ll get a 30-year edition in 2028. We had a ten and 20 for THB so no reason for him not to revisit this in years to come.

I have a 4-dvd set called 'Truth TV' somewhere, I'm sure a forum member was putting them together

Same here. [Grump mode activated] This'll be the first time I've passed on a proper Manics 'thing' since 91. They've jumped the shark for me with yet another anniversary waltz shenanigan. £35 is proper cobblers for this unimaginative package, it should be £17.99. It's not like they need to recoup production / recording costs for it. Izza Swizz. [Grump mode deactivated].

But if that's so, why not put it on this?

My guess is with Nicky’s mother being ill and passing away upon the run up, they’ve whacked this out for 2018 and didn’t spend any time going through the old stuff.

It’s either that or 1) they never existed / no longer exist, or 2) the band doesn’t think they’re fit for release. Which is perfectly plausible.

Keiron Evans has been going through old rehearsal VHSs and other stuff in preparation for something, so there will hopefully be an online video.

"Nobody Loved You" a "hidden track rather than disappearing".
Unfortunately worded given the subject matter however!

Boxsets arriving this week some time, aren't they?

So now we know apparently from reviews that Nobody Loved You is just added on right after SYMM. Could they not just have done that with Prologue To History? I guess they preferred it where it will be now, but at least lyrically (the title) it would seem more fitting at the end to me (or the beginning, but The Everlasting kinda trumps it with 'In the beginning...'!
