    It's a great album. Just got my copy today. Can't wait to see him in LA & SD in a couple weeks. "The Keeper" is a new song. It was written for the Machine Gun Preacher soundtrack.

    If you buy it on the official CC site you get 10 bonus tracks, but only in the US. Is there any US fan who has bought it and wants tho share with fans like me who lives outside the US? It will be very appreciated!

    Do you have iTunes or are the bonus tracks only on US iTunes?

    Sadly, all the bonus tracks are just other recordings of the same tracks already on the album! :(

    The Amazon mp3 version just gives you another take of "Like A Stone"....

    The iTunes version is just another take of "Black Hole Sun"...

    The Best Buy exclusive CD just has other takes of "As Hope And Promise Fade" and "Call Me A Dog"...

    The 10 bonus tracks from CC's site include THREE extra takes of "Thank You", TWO of "I Am The Highway", and then one each of "Scar On The Sky", "Imagine", "As Hope And Promise Fade", "Ground Zero", and "Can't Change Me".....

    Any chance you know where the additional takes are from?

    EDIT: Nevermind...saw it.

    Yeah Ive been listening to this nonstop the past few days myself. "I Am The Highway" is one of my favorite Audioslave songs and it sounds fucking incredible acoustic.
  • facepollutionfacepollution Posts: 6,834
    Just listening to it through for the first time, absolutely AMAZING, his voice is on stunning form right now. I really hope he brings the acoustic tour to the UK and the rest of Europe, I need to see this live. Oh, and there HAS to be a volume 2, and 3 and.......

    Just bought it off iTunes... listening now. His voice is fucking incredible on this. Definitely a chill out album you listen to with a few beers.

    Yeah, I wish the bonus tracks were actually different songs from what's on the album, not just different versions. The Ticketmaster bonus track is "Call Me a Dog" from Atlantic City.

    Were you actually able to get this downloaded? When I downloaded the whole album through Ticketbastard, the bonus track downloaded but is an empty file. Every time I try to re-dowload it, it just says "finished" with no option to attempt a 2nd DL. I contacted TM and as always, they were not helpful. Kinda pissed that I got jipped out of a freebie.
  • kasedougkasedoug The Golden State Posts: 2,957
    About 4-5 of my songs were cut off and had the same problem of not being able to redownload. I emailed them but have yet to hear back. Forwarded the other downloads to friends that are going to the shows with me but have yet to hear anything from them about any problems. I ended up buying a hard copy anyways.

    YES!!!!!! The end of Wide Awake is how he should have sung it on the album, nice clean belting notes, it sounds incredible here.

    AH JOHN! That's what I thought.. I just listened to Wide Wake from Sweden 06 and it sounds more powerful when he's hacking his voice to pieces.

    Just picked up a vinyl copy of this. It's incredible. I'm listening to it right now. His acoustic Fell on Black Days is amazing.

    Yes. I emailed the contact email from the download email and they said the issue had been resolved and they just sent me another download. Worked fine.

    You can get it at amazon.com and on his site, he also has a link there to universal music UK for European customers, but it only lets you look at the product, not buy it..

    Love this album! Only complaint is that when I went to see him last spring, he played Hunger Strike, Say Hello 2 Heaven, Blow Up the Outside World, and Seasons, which happened to be my favorite songs of the show, and none of which are on the album. Would've liked those to be in the bonus tracks instead of repeats from the album. Still, it's money well spent.
