People are getting them and I assume spinning them. What's the verdict? How does it sound to you? Go!

    disc one was very nice.
    disc two- snap, crackle and pop.... but I will inspect it better to see if it needs a cleaning
    disc three- haven't spun it yet.

    the music sounds great... Ed's vocals have that slight "sound" that I can't describe that he had during the mid 90s early 2000s. it is not him but more of the microphone/mixing. doesn't have that rich bass/fullness that more recent boots have.

    First side skips on a couple songs, random pops throughout a couple places on the rest.. Overall its great but it would be nice to hear Thin Air and Breakerfall without skipping

    All three of my LPs sound great. No issues. I will agree with lolobugg though. Ed's vocals are not what I've come to expect

    All my sound good, not great. Probably something that will do a lot more sitting on the shelf then spinning on the turntable.

    On a side note. I'm listening to LO10L right now (which I just picked up on vinyl).. The tempo of the songs on here seem super fast. Nothing as it Seems feels especially rushed. Could just be my pre blizzard Buzz talking though. . .

    I wonder what goes into the decision on which show to release as a vault issue. Obviously there are a lot of great boots out there. It would be cool to have a "fan chosen" vault release someday.

    Sound is good, not great.
    Still need to listen to Lp's 2 and 3, which had some visible issues with them.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    It's good but not the greatest performance by the band and especially Ed. Lots of errors but then again it's a warmup show and the first time the Binaural songs were played.

    First time I played it, I wasn't thrilled with it but second time round enjoyed it a lot more.

    Sadly this is the first vault I have zero interest in buying. I really wish pj would have picked another year since we already have 72 quality boots from 2000. Seems like they got a little lazy on this one.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Finally gave mine a complete listen last night. Disc 2 had 4 or 5 noticeable pops, but I'm not going to fuss over it. Static build-up was pretty bad, but I sprayed my slipmat with some static guard and that helped. Probably just need to give the records a good cleaning, too.
    Highly enjoyed the show! The Binaural tour was the first I ever saw them live, so to hear a show from that tour - albeit a warm-up - on wax is pretty awesome!
  • Finally got mine today. Packaging was crazy. Good work. Thing could of gone through battle. Will try to spin tonight!

    the whole thing is way too fast. I can't listen to it
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    LO10L isn't very good IMO... but I don't mind NAIS on it - I thought of it as having an upbeat tempo rather that just being too fast. The tone of EV's voice is more upbeat too. Same with I Am Mine on that album. I don't mind it.... But yeesh. The song choices for that album are generally pretty lame; I don't really understand what they were thinking on that one.

    I would kill for this responsibility!!! Would love to have someone who has been collecting recordings for decades and is aware of all the recordings that are out there and the missing shows that fans have coveted be able to advise PJ on this decision. I'd also like to increase the releases to one per month.

    That would be interesting, considering how it goes when they come only once a year. ;)

    They seem to be a little lazy on a lot of things around here.

    I got mine today. Very impressed by the package. Awesome to hold it in my hands and prepare to listen. Looks like each side has a great selection of songs.
