The band acknowledged that it was surreal to stand there and listen to a recording as audience members bobbed their heads in front of an empty stage.

Jeff's reaction is definitely the more accurate bellwether.

BUT, I'm not getting my hopes up.

I don't think they meant it was mixed and mastered a year ago, just that they finished basic tracks and it's been getting pulled together in the background
