I'm with you boo. Kudos to us!!! Still haven't listened to it. I'm just waiting for Tuesday, it will be worth the wait.
Same here!
I've been away from the board for the past five weeks, mainly because I was dreading having to wade through all the hundreds of new posts that I knew were going to be up here (and I know, that doesn't make it go away; it only gets worse, because I sign on today and sure enuff, there are 350 threads with new posts!!!). But I knew I needed to sign on today because it'd probably be my last chance to read any news before release day.
I'm kinda sad to see that it's leaked, but I'm a little surprised to see that it wasn't until two weeks before release day rather than the two months with 'Harmonium'. I was actually away from the board for nearly a year when I came back a month before release day to find that out. In that case, I did download the leak (and it's actually still that leak download that I listen to today when I listen to the album, and CD I bought has never even been played), but this time, it's just six days away, so I'm waiting.
I've been enjoying all this stuff I've read on here about it, and I'm really looking forward to it. I think it helps because I'll have some sense of what to listen for the first time I put it in, but I will completely not have heard most of it (I haven't been downloading all the crappy little live clips either, no offence to anyone who may have uploaded decent little live clips though).
