Rico's been very disappointed by the album. He booked his flight to Rome, to see them play, and after that he heard the new album, which he didn't like at all. But apparently the concert was good (review is coming up soon) so it wasn't a bad decision for him after all.

I enjoyed the concert I saw when they played tracks from Trisector (although I hadn't heard the album, as it hadn't been released).
Is it worse than Trisector? That album is pretty average.

I haven't heard Trisector, sorry.

because VDGG is boring.
In an unrelated subject, that video you posted yesterday, James, is pretty awesome!

 Indeed. It's only short but it's great. I really need to hunt down Vonnegut's short story now. I love the way the wife does the washing up through the whole dénouement.  Vonnegut hinted on similar things in other stories. The only thing I didn't like was the glitch at the beginning.  But Kronos Quartet played the music, so that's win too.

Why would I? Everyone says it's mediocre, and the new one made me even less interested in getting the other.

I mean travel far primarily to see a concert. The most I might do is the 5 hour drive to NYC, but even then I've never actually done it.

I would probably drive 5 or 6 hours to see a band, I don't know if there are any I would pay to fly overseas for.
I might pay to fly overseas to an enormous festival with tons of amazing bands, though. That might be worth it.

Mark, that's 'cause WBA have the ex-Swindon player in Simon Cox. Damn him for being too good for us.
