Thanks again Peter for making this clear too.
I also have a lot of GL-concerts, so that won't be very interesting to me either.
But want to have the box anyway, just to have it  ::)

All I would want from this box is the three bonus tracks.  The rest is beginning to look less and less interesting now. :(  I think I am speaking for a lot of us here after some initial excitement.

I wouldn't worry about missing out on the bonus tracks - they'll soon turn up.  We eventually got to hear the "delightful" Time In the Sun, Good as Gold etc. ;)

Just cancelled my pre-order of the box in Amazon.de, in Amazon Italy was cheaper and the delivery date was the same... So I stick with the Italian one unless Spanish shops list it cheaper or at least at the same price.

 :)

Cancelled my pre-order  from Amazon.fr 89,99Euros !!
Oredered on the Italian Amazon...Btw I'll have to wait a little longer.... Hopefuly I've saved little money ^^

Normal Fan
13 euros for the full 20 songs album

DieHard Fan
an extra 70 euros for 5 live songs and 3 bonus tracks which could all have been put easily in the 3rd disc of 3-discs edition


Die hard fan who doesn't mind being exploited by the record companies marketing strategy (impo) :):
Deluxe + Super Deluxe editions

One who rebels against this strategy:
Deluxe (and eagerly awaits bonus songs appearing on the internet, or may buy the super later)

Can they release an on the night box with
telegraph road tunnel of love sultans of swing planet of new orleans?

I'll pay 150 for that, even 200 if confetti are included

Now that would be worth the money! :P  The way it should have been from the very start.

At the moment I really think about just buying the simple double CD and wait for some reviews about WHAT live show download we will get. For me the three songs and the live download are the interesting things - I don't care for the vinyl and surely can live without the art print... So I think I will cancel my deluxe box and order the simple edition. That one I can give away to friends/family anytime and order the box if it will turn out great news, great three new songs or will get cheaper...

Decisions, decisions...

Edit: Just found out it is 4 Euros more in Germany now - 68,99

bol.com answered me that they indeed had wrong specifications on their site.They chnaged the box, is now the same as mk.com. But the deluxe still contains 7 songs according to them (price is extremely high at bol.com 29,99 euro)
So I asked if we in the Netherlands have an extra 2 songs and if that's the reason for the higher price.

Will be continued  ::)
