L O L

I can see you getting grief for that for more than one reason! I know exactly what you mean though. Generally speaking I think it's fair to say there are a lot more "crazy - I must have everything - collector" people in Japan than there are here. I just wish I wasn't one of them! I've managed to refrain from buying any of these re-issues. Will be getting the DVD though...

Yeah, before anyone accuses me of being racist what I mean is that I think Japan has a higher ratio of the "I must have all the different versions" type fans, as well as more fans that are generally "into" bands, than countries like the UK do.

I was thinking more along the lines of everyone getting all upset that you refered to the manics back catalogue as "any old tat"

It is true though. Over the years I've noticed Japanese versions of albums by many of my favourite bands with bonus stuff.

Sorry to annoy....but another question about the b-sides on these things.

1. On The Holy Bible second disc there are two remixes credited to the Dust Brothers...I'm assuming these are the Chemical Borthers remixes? If so, can anyone let me know if they are the vocal or dub remixes? I'm assuming they would be the vocal mixes.

2. The live tracks on THB reissue...the New Art Riot one is the New Art Riot (In E minor) live version, correct?

Thanks!

Around 10-14 days usually.

Yes. It is the same live version of New Art Riot.

parcelforce are arseholes. The customs charge i was expecting to be around £10-15 ended up being £27.12 due to parcelforce's £13.50 *clearance fee* ..when i phoned to ask what that was exactly i was told *oh you have to pay it* I replied *yes i know but what is it FOR?* she mumbled that she didnt know xactly but had to do with them holding the parcel. I told her i had the right to at least ask the question and she hung up on me.

so..is the £13.50 a holding fee while they wait for me to pay the customs charge then? Hardly my sodding fault is it?

Mine took a week, but it can vary.

Cheers.

Can someone confirm that the "Dust Brothers" mixes on THB disc 2 are the "dub mixes"?

Thanks.
