For those wondering about an on-line purchase, here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...&id=1927799 Additionally, if you don't feel like waiting around until Friday, you may want to meander out to Best Buy. I picked up my copy of Road to Revolution today, and saw that this particular store (Farragut, TN) had already put the "Songs" CDs out.

or that the only thing available is the music and not the video

drop: Shadow of the Day Somewhere I Belong...unless they bring back the intro they had for it prior to PR08 (see US Arena Tour shows) No More Sorrow...at least a breather; I like the song, but at the same time, can't listen to it much more at the moment

only definitive ones: Wake 2.0/Given Up - Milton Keynes (due to a lack of anything else coming to my head) Leave Out All the Rest - OKC/Phoenix '07 (different energy in OKC; Chester acknowledges folks in the crowd in PHO '07, which is cool IMHO). Bleed It Out - East Troy '08 and probably the version of What I've Done off the Toronto(?) show from this year...the one where they were having problems with transportation, started late, and it's like a piano intro, as opposed to an ambo intro. Hands Held High - Dallas '07...although it does go well w/ Crawling; I still like it to stand on its own

not sure about M2M demos, but I would be willing to bet a dollar to a stale donut that you'll see Breaking the Habit in some fashion on there.

this is too purposely vague..."select Best Buy stores?" WTF? Does this mean I have to be in a big city to get one (if so...I'm so totally hosed). Not a defense of what's happened, but Best Buy has been the outlet to at least purchase the last LPU package, so this isn't really that far-fetched/an issue of selling out, imho. The one other thing that really does blow is that they are doing this on BLACK FRIDAY?! Guess I'll ask the folks to pick one up for me in TX...there's no way in hell I'm getting out on Black Friday for anything. Not to mention, I'll be an hour away... Unbelievable...Black Friday...I need to get my clue stick out.

get someone else besides basecamp(?) to handle uploading DSPs, especially given their bang-up job lately

I'm planning a nice road trip here in about a week. What I want to know is what you think the best shows are that I can play on my iPod while in transit. Looking about 7 hours each way. TIA

breaking the habit will be there somewhere...either some live version, remix, backwards, acoustic, acapella, instrumental...some version of it will be on there...just a hunch.

To quote a song (and show my age), at this rate, "in the year 2525..." You would be correct. When the settlement was reached back in 2005, it stated "The pact provides the company's Warner Brothers Records unit with an option for up to five more albums from the band, one more than had been called for in their original deal." Source: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/28/arts/mus...and&emc=rss If LP really wanted to "stick it to the man," they could release live CDs of the DSPs that have already been released. That would get them out of their contract pretty fast.

This isn't directed at anyone in particular. I know that when the DSPs come out, folks clamor for them. I would ask that you give the Houston folks a little extra slack, given what's been going on in that area. Some of them may be fine, and could upload fairly quickly...just don't be surprised if there's a lag for Houston.

Thank you, sir.

Hard to say on the speed but it's possible that it could take that long. If you're that worried about it, you could always maybe try megaupload, but I know that also takes time, as well. Nothing is quick, as you've noted, without signing up for an account. TIA for uploading.

I'd be willing to bet there will be some variant of "Breaking the Habit" on there, too.

Many thanks for the heads-up.

it's all good...I'm sure the staff will make sure things look okay
