Version 1 coming in the next 30 minutes. The only problem I see is with the transition and beginning ("Big Wave" -> "Gone") of our new "Gone". I love the new "Gone, but you guys will see what I am talking about after you give Version 1 a listen. "Gone may be "Gone" before we even begin. :?

S**t I hope you're wrong...
I'm downloading now and I'll try and remain objective when I'll report in a short while.
:x This is definitely another 'Wishlist' ...

I may have jumped the gun a little bit concerning "Gone", it doesn't sound as bad as I initially thought it would. Give the transition a good listen and let me know what you think.

It's still downloading... *sigh*

Just downloading now.....

Have just given it a few listens.
On first listen, I really had no clue what the problem was .
On a couple more listens though, I reckon the main difference with the former transition is that, in the Rough Draft, the transition was almost seamless : music fades in Big Wave > cheers > cheers > music starts with Gone, whereas with this one, there's this 'beat' and 'count' interruption that doesn't make the whole thing that seamless. I'm not sure it's really that much of a disturbance really, but I've only listened to those two songs in a row and focused, so maybe I overlooked something. I'll try and give the whole thing a fresh listen and see if the flow is really interrupted by this in a disturbing way. Gone still flows really really well into Wasted Reprise though .

Edit : since I'm at it, I'm gonna give the whole thing a new listen to try and figure where we stand now.

I ran home for my lunch break and took a quick listen. For me, there is definitely a "flow" issue. I don't know if maybe you snip the first few secs of the track or pick a new version, which one would be better. As for other versions, I do remember the Chicago version being quite good....don't remember is it was 5-16 or 5-17 though.

Or check out Brisbane 11-11-06 again...I gave it another listen and it's a slightly stronger version, IMHO.

I liked that Chicago version too. There's some 'Ed talk' in it if I recall correctly. Could be another way to look at it.

*sigh* I think I need to give it yet another listen, I MUST be missing something there. :?

You probably aren't missing anything...it's just a matter of opinion.

Those versions for Severed hand and Marker .... are so much better than the ones we had on the rough draft !!
Damnit, I knew I should have gone to that show in Paris too :x

Maybe it's the crowd noise...or the fact that he says "get ou of this fucking town"...i dunno...I just love that version.

Just had a run through of Version 1 on my headphones - up to the end of 'Gone'. I love it! A really great sounding collection - and making me feel that I no longer have a 'least favourite Pearl Jam album' any more!

I think the changes are an improvement.

On the Gone issue, I guess it is a matter of preference. I am really liking the version we have now - it moves me, and I didn't think the break was too severe (you should hear some of the transitions in the audience based projects! )

I found myself getting a bit choked up to Gone - a welcome low after all the frenetic energy...... Personally I wasn't so moved by Brisbane - but if people want to change it, there might be another one out there to get me welling up again! That's all I ask!

Ok, well report back and give us a choice of 3. My brain starts to go funny if I listen to more than that!

I had a top 6 on my previous trip 2 days ago :
Albany
Chicago
Milwaukee
Denver
Los Angeles
and Dublin.

I guess we can rule Dublin out now. So that's a choice of 5. But I'm taking a whole new fresh trip there. So this list is subject to any kind of change .... And I'll try to narrow it down to 3.

Hell yeah they are. I love 'em.

I'm really liking this Chicago one too. But I fear there might also be a 'break' at the start of it. The speech can stay or go. If it stays, it's a bit longish. But quite worth it.

I don't know what burning software is being used...but with Nero (the one I have)...you can do a crossfade to make the tracks blend in better.
