New Billboard Article, Live commits Amsterdam Gig to CD/DVD Options

[Bob]

Here's an idea, how about the full show for the DVD?
A CD can hold a maximum of 80 minutes so unless it's going to be a multi-CD release then a lot of the tracks performed at the show are going to be cut. I always welcome new tracks.

I'm going to be PISSED if it's not the full, unedited concert. What the hell is the point of recording a full concert and not releasing the whole thing? If Live wants people to get the experience of a Live concert from home, release the whole thing. Pretty please... with sugar on top.

If they chop it up, that's basically Radiant Sea, Part Deux.

I'll take a full DVD and a chopped up CD with new songs like Dan said. I'd rather sacrifice some of the concert to hear new material.

Ed can do whatever the fuck he wants because he no longer has good song writing talent. He still has great pop hook writing talent, but so do commercial jingle people.

Paul from Black Lab does it all! Awesome albums and a kickass jingle in the new McDonalds commercial. (Shameless Lab promotion for the week.)

Yeah, the DVD sure as hell better have the entire concert. As far as the CD goes, I'd prefer that they double-disc it. I've seen it go both ways, though. Collective Soul released a double disc album alongside the DVD, but Better Than Ezra released a shortened (and shuffled) version on one CD as compared to the DVD. Both bands had a new song or two at the end of the CD portion.

yeah, well at least it matters to me.

'there's a big diff between 'new' TC songs (for example), than new NEW songs that will def. sound more like SFBM than all the existing outtakes. Not that I expect some TC outtakes, but ya know. Nobody knew that the V outtakes from RS were recorded back than, and they were registered only in 2007.

Absolutely. But you never know. What if th BRAND NEW songs sound more Tcish than TC itself
