I don't really want to be thinking about any of that.

I feel better about everything when I listen to MYM. It helps me catch my breath to breathe.

Apparently a review copy of LB leaked last night & some South American fans reported it to Kat and got it taken down. The leaker posted about it somewhere. Real clever.

The only mildly interesting piece of mindless speculation on the Pit is this:

"From the little bit I've read about the song Yellow Moon and the snippets of lyrics people remember, it sounds like maybe Ed wrote a song about the dream he told us about during the Cleveland show in 06:"

The fact that anyone reported it to Kat, rather than jump on the opportunity to grab the album, is mind-boggling. They probably did still grab the album and then report it.

He has been a bit quiet today. He's probably writing up an Every Ist review now, ready to publish as soon as it's legal.

His review article will be one third longer than it would have been without the paragraphs reflecting on his diminished fandom of the band.
