:D No, not really... thanks for telling us!!

However, he is allowed to do so, because it was just rehearsal, wasn't it??  :lol :lol

On an official release!!  I love nerdy stuff like this - forgive me! ;D

To be really nerdy he also misses out some words during WAM!  He sings: "...concrete...bricks..."  Where are the adjectives Mark?  What are you doing with these bricks? :lol

No problem, it is just: I would have never noticed it - the lyrics are not exactly what I would call the most intellectual ones he has ever written, and the lasst verse is pretty meaningless apart from repeating the first verse as a coda... Funny that you noticed it!  :lol

You're very polite in saying "funny that you noticed it."  Sad that you noticed it would probably be closer to the truth! :lol

I stumbled upen the line

"Well, it's a big old world out there, go get it if you can..."

and especially the last part, "go get it..." is sung by Mark in a very ...bumby? As if he was very... funny??  :lol Did you notice that, also?

Got it yesterday.

I have listended the first 6 tracks : although a bit weak for an opening song Redbud Tree sounds fine , Corned Beef City would have made a perfect single b-side, the rest did not really entertain me :-\

Today I received my 3cd deluxe version, bought at www.play.com, the cheaper price and the fastest service.

What a poor booklet, with so many musicians I expected at least to know in which tracks played the occasional musicians of the recording...

Its not deluxe at all.

I agree, it's like a hard-back book.  The booklet doesn't come out and what annoys me is (similar to the Real Live Roadrunning CD/DVD combo) is that if you want to listen to CD2 you first have to remove CD1.  The bonus disc which will hardly be used isn't tucked underneath like CD2 but is on the right hand side with easy access!  I'd say it's worth the extra few pounds though because it only cost me
