I'm excited for the album, just hoping they don't bust out the Owata synth...

The USB key on the lanyard has a bunch of random stuff on there in addition to the MP3's - but all of the graphics, etc are just there to make a .html file on there functional. When it's double-clicked, it fires up your browser and takes you to a HTML based local page where you can listen to the MP3s in this weird little player, and has links to their website, store, SPRC, etc. There's also a place where Kerry said they have the functionality to upload more content. He alluded to the fact that they might upload soundcheck songs, interviews from that day, or photos from the concert. I'm not holding my breath on that, but it'd be cool if it does pan out.

The drive was $25 - but if you signed up for the text messaging portion of the SPRC, then you got a bounceback text that got you $5 off, knocking it down to $20. I figured that was worth it - none of the shirts did anything for me, so I had a pre-allotted merch budget to blow on SOMETHING.

Fully welcome. Just do your part and continue to financially support BC & Co. As the download numbers skyrocket on this, I'm starting to feel odd tinges of conscience.

This is great, thanks.

I'll be buying a copy if they're taking this service to England... If only because they didn't play My love Is Winter at this show.

You paid $25. Don't feel guilty.

You were pissed they didn't give you something for free that they paid $25 for?

What kind of world do we live in!

You know what? After listening to this, it ain't half bad! Mike was tearing up Silverfuck. And yeah some of the songs lacked their magic (Geek USA, F&B) but hey, no biggie. It's just a band, right? Band's change.

...nice sound quality but Byrne still doesn't groove...
Listen to "Cherub Rock" for example...

Thanks Raskolnikov!

Is it just me who keeps expecting the Pumpkins to launch into a cover of Metallica's "One" the moment the intro music to Soma begins? Guess I've been listening to too many Metallica boots!

Happy to see that these are garnering some of the excitement and enthusiasm I felt for the band and the show as I left the Cosmopolitan. For the first time in a long time, I was excited.

Obviously Mike is the weak link, but he is getting a lot better from when I saw him a year ago.
