    Picked up my copy last night at 11th Street Records, my local record shop here in Las Vegas. Jacket features cover art from the tour t-shirt, and contains 2 sleeves with the 2 LP's inside a single jacket. Each sleeve has a nice photo collage on the front, and on the backs (which I didn't include because the print is very small) are the track list/credits on one and a foreword by author and music journalist Michael Azerrad on the other, describing the "Ballhog or Tugboat" album and the "ring spiel" tour itself. Having owned a bootleg CD of this for several years it's nice to finally own an official release on vinyl - a treat for eyes and ears alike! :)

    Got mine today too. :transformer:
    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.

    Got mine. Orange vinyl and it sounds great! I was at the STL show on the Ring Spiel tour and it is still probably my favorite show Ive ever seen...at least in top 5. Never thought I'd get to listen to one of these shows on VINYL!!! So happy this came out. Do not hesitate to purchase this as it is a very cool release and very well done.

    Just listened to this with headphones. Wow! Love the EARLY version of Habit. Also, Piss Bottle Man is great and Forever...reporters opinion is fucking awesome. Double drums with Grohl and Goldsmith is really cool.

    What tracks besides Habit does Ed do lead vocals on? Against the 70's?

    Just Habit on this album pretty sure
