There's been a lot of talk about this next song maybe, maybe too much talk..

Will be picking this one up....Only wish they were releasing the entire concert on audio cd instead of just remastering the previously released album.

On a side note i've just seen that the Joshua tree paris concert (the audio not video) that was in the Joshua tree deluxe set is available on itunes....

The album was culled from 3 different concerts - you'd have thought they could have compiled a full length concert, or something close, from those three.

I wonder if they've sorted out the legal problems and re-inserted Send in the Clowns to The Electric Co.?
