The first email just said there had been a delay. I have deleted now.
I liked p&p - nice touch.

It's excellent, very good recording...

Packaging is good, just a simple cardboard sleeve with a paper inner sleeve....

No complaints apart from it's not yet on Gracenotes which meant i had to manually type all the song titles onto Itunes........

Just got home from work and mine had arrived. It is an excellent recording (the Olympia gig last December). I wasn't going to order it at first and just make do with audience recordings but this sounds good (NO OVERDUBS. NO RE-RECORDING) - and I'm only on the third track.

Packaging - nice b\w photo on the insert. Camo design on disc.

Good hearing a live album that isn't the greatest hits (i.e LIL, MIAS).

(As soon as I put it on and heard the chant intro I remembered the netting getting stuck - that's why he apologises at the beginning!).

My thoughts too........

its from a simpler time when letters were smaller. actually i may have exaggerated, giving it large as it were, just how bent it is. but it is. Birthdays are always disappointing as the cards all have to be ironed before they'll stand up on the mantlepiece. been thinking for a while i ought to get a bigger one.

Glad to hear it's arriving... after the Ocean Rain fiasco (still never wound up finding a copy), I will continue to have fears until mine arrives...

Anyone outside the UK got theirs?

No sign of mine. No sign of Postman Pat either, unless he's sitting in the van listening to it.

Got it. It is very good.... sound, performance, packaging..... having watched U2 at Glasto and Coldplay..... this sounds so raw and hungry and not old at all.....

Bunnymen are so much better .....

Feel sorry for the masses that don't even know that .......
