I just don't want to over do it.  Besides, the next two CDs look less interesting. 1. It's impossible to overdo Henry Cow. 2. How can they look less interesting? I'm passing out from how awesome this is. 1. it is possible 2. they're similar track listings and well... how many versions of The March do I need to actually hear?

1. No, it's not.
2. 20

I think I will hear this entire boxset all the way through, and then right afterward feel the urge to do the same thing.

So far I really want to hear Trondheim again.

Stockholm & Goteborg is also worthy of repeated listens.

The others not so much at the moment.  Except the Matching Mole/Wyatt covers.

The DVD tracklisting is orgasmic though.  I hope the music lives up to it.

I haven't heard it yet.

But from everything I've read, that seems to be a general consensus.

Wuss.

Hamburg was almost too similar to Concerts for me, I guess that Cutler wanted to provide the Hamburg piece, but overall I'm not sure how much that disc brought to the table.  I mean it was still great, but nothing really new.

We Did It Again.

That was new and epic.

I can never get enough of Little Red Riding Hood Hits the Road either.

But yes, it is similar to Concerts.

I love Hamburg.

You're being too critical.

Well, that was an enormous pwn.

I'm mentally drained after that.

I'm mentally stimulated.

For music anyway. I don't feel like doing homework.
