The main problem with . DVD discs is that they are not vinyl.! I have tried putting the needle on them and it just slides all over the place and no sound apart from crackle. No good at all.
They work better if you microwave them first.

As I recall Nic talked in an interview about struggling to learn both Supper’s Ready and Los Endos. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with them not making the final cut for the set list.
I doubt it. They may be hard to learn but Nic would have done it, no problem. I'd say there were other considerations.

Jesus he knows me and hold on my heart we’re not played
Pity about Jesus He Knows Me, would like to hear that.

He sounds great. Much, much better than I had thought he would. The band look and sound amazing, I am so excited to see them now!!
-
So the setlist is printed on the back of their shirts!
What?!
That's unusual. And if I was trying to avoid spoilers and saw someone walking down the street wearing one I'd be pretty irritated!

Record for users logged onto the forum broken 20 minutes ago. Cool! I feel like it had been unchanged for years before that, at 17 or something.

Phil's low vocal at the end of "Another Record" sounded odd.
This really stood out to me on my recent listening too. Initially I thought "who is that?!" but it becomes obvious it's Phil. I get the impression they were enjoying some experimentation on this album, more than most of their others.

Jesus Christ, Miami are shite. Hang your heads in shame lads!

John Challis who played Boycie in Only Fools And Horses, just died. One of the best non-lead characters in any show.
“Did you know, 500 years ago this was a green and peaceful area? The old Earl of Peckham had a castle where the Kwik-Fit exhaust centre now stands. Flaxen-haired maidens used to dance round the village maypole of an evening. And then one fateful medieval day, the Trotter clan arrived in a stolen Zephyr. Before you knew it, the flaxen-haired maiden was up the spout, the old Earl had been sold some hooky armour and someone nicked the maypole.”

Jethro Tull were an amazing band. The problem with the 'new' JT is that Martin Barre is no longer in the band; for that matter, the only original member is Ian Anderson, and his inflated ego has turned me off any new stuff. There are numerous bands that are led by inflated egos that over the years have refused to let previous band members rejoin the group, and this to me is very distasteful. Bands I'd love to see get back together are
Martin Barre with Jethro Tull
Roger Waters with Pink Floyd
Dennis DeYoung with Styx
Jon Anderson with YES
Steve Perry with Journey
Don Felder with The Eagles
Lindsey Buckingham with Fleetwood Mac
These bands are all still playing live shows; maybe not Pink Floyd, but these guys were, in my opinion, part of the lifeblood of the band. Without them, the music has suffered, as have their many fans.
I think without Wright, Pink Floyd should stay dead. It was never just Gilmour and Waters. Wearing The Inside Out is hard proof of that. As was SOYCD of course.
I'd add Butler to Suede to your list... If they hadn't had 25 brilliant years after he left.

Jeez I'd love to hear Tony Banks playing this.

I can never work out if this is my favourite or second favourite album. I alternate it with We Can't Dance. If you took the best tracks from this & combined it with the best of We Can't Dance you would have an unqualifed masterpiece
Cool mixture there! We Can't Dance gets precious little love around here and I feel bad for it as it was really my induction album for Genesis. I was 10 and my trusty walkman and WCD cassette were a solid foundation for me.
What would an Abacab/WCD tracklist look like?

Any chance of a little context for this list of songs? We don't know the current setlist so what is the first list you posted? If these are songs from the current tour, what is the significance of "drum machine tracks" on those songs? What is a "pre-record"? If they are studio songs where a drum machine is used, so what? If they are songs played live where a drum machine is used, so what? Does it mean the live drummer is not good or should be judged for having an additional instrument on the song or something??
Totally lost.

I am a Canadian Football League fan...
OR a big fan of the World's most popular team Sport.
You know what the World calls football. A few call it soccer.
What's your point? The "world" calls lots of things different names depending on where you are. In Ireland football can be Gaelic football or soccer, but the most intolerant pedants would get all high and mighty if you refer to EPL games as football games.

No. I saw this bit on Reddit the other day and was pretty stunned. Apparently the full version was on YouTube briefly.
This is the kind of gold they could feel free to dig out of the archives any time they want!

If you talk about drum machines (Mama, Invisible Touch), ok, but again that doesn't mean that what he has to play is that easy... "Mama" drum part is not "just diddling about over the top"...
Drum machines are the ground for some songs, but you still have to build the house on it.
Exactly. Not sure how this could ever generate controversy. Mama, In The Air Tonight, Man On The Corner, Tonight Tonight Tonight just to mention a few examples all have bits with a drum machine. It's just another instrument. Doesn't detract from the real drummer's job in the least.
Am I missing something here?

Nic is just diddling about over the top of sequenced beats most of the time!
What?
