It was quicker than Canada the last time around, so no more than 3 days.

Quite simple, the split is my fault, DVD shortage... Mike will probably send the other batch tomorrow and I'll send the DVD myself instead to those who didn't get it.

I had a week off where I couldn't produce ;)

Baltimore, Maryland, USA

All packages were sent as of today, except for the bands, those will be shipped this week-end (because they have multiple copies obviously)

Most excellent! I am anxiously awaiting it's arrival...

Mine arrived yesterday.

I'm going to go on record and say that Bentley's ICB just may be the best cover of any song - ever. (beating out my previous top spot of Self's 'What a Fool Believes' on toy instruments). It manages to best the orignal many times over, which is a rare thing.

Unbelievable. Amazing job, Chris.

Just did - holy crap!

The kREMLIN track is incredible too. What a song to come right after.

11 Nov 2006, 06:13

Ness & Eimear - thankfully I'm back to full "fitness" and just hoping the pre-xmas gig comes off! tchf

Once again it made the UK before Canada.

Are our postmen lazy? damn it.

11 Nov 2006, 08:36

Got it yesterday.Not a review,but just wanted to say that after playing it through 3 times, the stand out tracks (for me anyway)are ICB, TURN & LONESOME TONIGHT. Special mention for THE VILLAGE,brilliant.

11 Nov 2006, 08:55

NEW DAWN FADES.After nearly 30 years,still makes me laugh and cry in equal measures.

12 Nov 2006, 07:58

Received mine yesterday, two cd's with a note that the dvd will follow. Now you'll have two lots of postage, not very cost effective :). Anyway, no review yet because I haven't listened to any of it. Looks good though, and Shug's lines notes are entertaining, as usual

i wish i had disposable income right now. Don't want to be a freeloader.

13 Nov 2006, 04:52

Mine came Saturday. After 3 listens my stand out track is Lonesome Tonight. I also liked The Village and ICB. I was a little disappointed with some of the other tracks though. I know its only personal opinion but the vocals sounded a little low in the mix.

13 Nov 2006, 05:15

Thanks very much for mine - excellent CD and extras. Awesome ( as our US friends would say )quality and production - many thanks for eveyone's hard work and dedication into producing this superb music - lovely jubbly.

Well, we can't please everybody. Did you vote? If so, what was your top 10?

I only voted for about 3 because of time constraints (lame I know). The Kremlin track grabbed me straight away.

Its great that fans can put together a product of such quality. The artwork is very impressive and footnote summed up NO admirably. I congratulate everyone who put so much hard work into this wonderful project.

Sorry if I sounded picky. But im a Virgo and you know how fussy we can be. Ill bite my lip next time.:\ohwell:

13 Nov 2006, 09:35

Everybody is entitled to their opinion!

We know the product won't pleased everybody, but we are also very proud of the bonus CD and I hope people will enjoy it.

I'm craving for reviews :wink:
