I don't think you'll be disappointed, although that piccolo solo could be said to be a little disingenuous.

The piccolo and sax dueling solo definitely puts this tune in top-5 territory.
:hooray:
I won't classify this as trolling...
Well that's very kind of you and I appreciate it. Just give me a little longer to prove myself.

Stay strong, there's no way in hell this thing stays under wraps till the 15th. It's being release in a few countries overseas on the 11th, so at the latest it will definitely leak by then. I just hope it's a quality leak and not some bullshit recording of an iTunes stream or something--at that point, yeah I would just wait for the 15th.

The sad truth is, I probably will too. My curiosity for My Father's Son alone is ridiculous.

I think you all missed a couple of messages while it was busy. Now is a good time to read the last 50 pages again, for instance. And post some replies. I recall there were some questions around page 300 and something I still promised to answer. If I can find them again.

groetjes,

So, for those of us that have listened to all available leaks, how do you approach the album when we finally get it? Listen to it from beginning to end or quickly listen to the tracks we have yet to hear?
