To be honest, I'm not sure about the actual degree of pleasure that was gleaned from the KK series but I think Huckler will back me when I suggest that David Suzuki may have played the role of karate mentor. He's apparently talented enough to deliver UN keynotes and catch flies with chopsticks

Experienced the treat of picking up the legitimate Aussie copies of the single and album today, by the way.

Any revelations in the packaging, photos, etc.?

Not sure about revelations, but certainly the unit makes a lot more sense from a design concept perspective. It's quite pleasing.

An element that our erstwhile Marsked Man will be thrilled about beyond containment is the unexpected inclusion of a rabbit smack bang in the middle of proceedings.

It'll be worth checking back here in a few days just to partake in the verbiage.

I'm certainly hoping that mine will be delivered tomorrow.

By the way, DC, when do you sleep?

Thanks for the reminder, I should call it a night in a minute, before I get grilled from the other room.

Are you a regular Pitchfork reader Pastie? Certainly strikes me as one of the better music sites. What do you expect they'll have to say about WFTSC?

I wouldn't say I'm a regular at Pitchfork, DC. I look at it occasionally. I don't know that I look at it frequently enough to have a prediction. But since it's a U.S. site (isn't it?) I assume they will wait for the North American release.

Reason I ask is that it seems quite an elitist music site.

It is a US site although I wouldn't be surprised to see a review earlier than official US release date, given they reviewed Krafty quite a while back now. Have a bad feeling it might come in for a pummelling from them.

I'm skimming through the album now, searching for any sign of a hidden track, or an 'Easter egg' in DVD speak. There was reference to something of the sort a while ago, from the likes of Muffy I believe. Nothing as yet, perhaps we've been rumbled again.

Based on my limited experience with them I think you're probably right on the elitist point, DC.

But who knows. I just hope they actually listen to the album more than once before reviewing it.

On the hidden extra front, perhaps someone had a change of heart.

The sirens are truly calling here now, time to call it a night.

I'll be watching this space with interest over the next few days as yourself and others acquire the genuine article.

Excelsior!

Sweet dreams, DC. I was just about to say that it must be time for you to go to bed.
