    They may be holding back because they received a massive amount of orders and have to get ready. Or it's possible that they mutli-tracked this show and they're doing some tweaking. Who knows?

    I do know this: the 2008 boots released so far don't sound as good as past boots because the stereo image has been folded-in, and the sound is bassy and over-mastered. You have to turn down the volume to prevent the sound from breaking apart.

    Maybe Roo truly was the greatest Pearl Jam concert of all time and they're making sure that the boot reflects such!

    POSSIBLY .. don't know if this is true or not, but the date this boot becomes available is exactly one month after Roo, so it may be some sort of contractual obligation thingy ... either way I can't wait to download it!!
    I was alone and far away when I heard the band start playing!

    Brett hasn't been doing the mixing for the 2008 boots. I think he's on tour w/ R.E.M. right now. Barrett Jones (Nirvana/Foo Fighters) has been handling the mixing duties.

    I know, I just found out about that. I don't like the changes he's made.

    No shit!! I was just coming in here to start a pissed off thread about where the fuck is the Bonnaroo boot!
    Seriously if I had known it would take this long I would have just B&P'd it with someone who was there.

    Yes. I'm whining & complaining about something I'll be happy to have once I get it.
    Just had to vent.

    I was wondering that as well, since this was a festival perhaps there are some legal considerations that have to be worked out. I can't imagine, as good as that show was, that it would take this long to put the boot together!!
