Hello! Waiting for the Deluxe edition to come in the post tomorrow! Any chance of a PM with the B-Sides to keep me ticking over until then lol?
Thanks!

Hi 

I'd like to hear the 3 bonus songs because I can't buy it online. I just bought the 2-CD Version of Privateering.

Would someone be so kind to send me a PM?

Thanks in advance.

Can someone send me the 4 bonus tracks to me too?
I'm gonna buy the super deluxe version in a month or 2 because than I have the money for it .

Thanks in advance!

did i mention that the live recordings are awesome? they are so...different..

Yes they are great, except from drumming on STP 

Being a drummer myself, I have to agree on that one. But on the other end, I love the way Ian Thomas plays overal. I mean when you listen to the other tracks, it's played with much more enthusiastic. At least that's what I feel .  Cheers

Can someone please send me a link for 'Your Perfect Song?

I've ordered the Deluxe Box Set from MK.com so i'll wait for the other 3 bonus songs.

Also, people are always saying that they have downloaded live concerts already, now with getting the box set i'll download the one off the card but i'd love another 1 or 2 to make sure i have a wide range so could anyone link me somehwere to get the concerts?

MUCH, MUCH APPRECIATED

As far as I know there is only one concert for download available and that's Madrid 2010, missing Telegraph Road. You can't choose a concert yourself.

On what I heard from the rehearsals I don't feel the same. It's more messy. The way Danny is drumming adds a lot to the music but it gives a comfortable feeling. It's more tight, don't know if I use the right word.

It might have been Ian's first take on the old songs, we should not forget - during the tour he probably learned more about them and would maybe sound different if he played them today...

on the other hand, when Danny came into the band in 2005, we rocked the house away from the first second...

Agreed, I also hear a few mistakes he makes in the other songs, so now and then. But I also mean how they play live now, or on the album. Danny Cummings is a great drummer, no doubt! But he always plays safe. And it's less challenging to do, and to listen to. I know it's more with a comfortable feeling, I can see that. But it's sometimes even boring, like in Brothers in Arms live, (please don't kill me! ). Love both drummers, but still prefer the style of Ian Thomas . But It's ofcourse all a matter of taste .

I was at, i think, the first live concert Danny played after Chad left the band - Lisbon 2005.
He did a wonderful job. I've always enjoyed his take on Sultans - very "clean".
For what I can tell Ian Thomas is a great drummer too. Seems a bit more consistent in the blues section. I may be wrong.

PS. Can someone PM me "Your perfect Song"? PLease...

[Andrew08]

Thanks to the kind members for the pm, I even got two of them!
Right now I'm in love with River of Grog, just MK and his guitar, and that amazing voice... -  it reminds me a little of Madame Geneva.
Anyway, does anyone know if the lyrics of the bonus songs can be found somewhere?Seems like on MK.com they' re still missing

[Ibai]

Hi all,
 
If it's not very rude from me, could anyone pm me to get the bonus songs?

I've bought the Deluxe edition and I'm eagerly awaiting for it since I haven't downloaded the album in order to preserve that special moment when you play it for the first time... I regret having listened to the snippets so many times!!

Thanks in advance, much appreciated

Ian already did some songs during BD/MK 2011 and yes Danny came in and kedeng full going

[Pottel]

i think it is now down to other people then ingridswing, shangri la and others to share, maybe now the ones that got it from us can pass it on to the newer requestors?
i will as of now ignore those requests.

Sorry Ingrid to be pedantic, but these rehearsals took place BEFORE or BECAUSE OF the Dylan tour me thinks... therefore he maybe played in the studio during the recordings, but certainly has no touch with the standard songs before?
