+1 from LaserCD.

About $30 bucks more expensive with Racket Records (Neal is signing the artbook though. Shipping was about $15 bucks at Radiant).

Yeah, I debated the signature version, but I have his autograph like four times already, I just need the music.

i'd pay the premium if they all signed it

Me too but 30 bucks is another CD lol. I ended up pre-ordering Big Big Train's new album, the one that comes with the Blu-ray since I just got an atmos/surround system setup

I thought the same, I have like 4 or 5 things signed by him, I'm good for a bit.

Ordered from Laser CD. I know it will arrive on time and in pristine shape. Ken knows how to ship his products.

That's where I'll be ordering. I'd order from Radiant if the entire band signed it.

[SwedishGoose]

I preordered the Artbook from Roine's shop

27th February 2024 - Latest News From Pete

Hi,
Now that I’ve been home from hospital a few days, I thought I’d let you know how I’m doing and what it is I’m recovering from.

So, I had a triple coronary bypass graft. Commonly known as a CABG and pronounced like the vegetable! This was done at Harefield Hospital and although invasive it is a very routine procedure for them and recovery time is usually four or five days before being discharged.

As I had a couple of issues I spent five days in hospital and am now at home on the way to full recovery, which I expect to achieve over the next few weeks to few months. Four weeks after surgery I should be able to start getting my fitness and stamina back, starting slowly.

At six weeks I can drive and at that point I shall start a phased return back to the studio. As we are writing and recording this year I have a nice environment to get back to it all.

The people at Harefield were amazing and I had the best care possible. Yes, it’s been tough and I had good and bad days, along with Fiona who has probably suffered more than I have. I didn’t expect to need the surgery if I’m honest, I thought the angiogram would show I needed more stents.

However I never doubted the surgery or the team and was completely confident in their abilities all the way through. It is of course incredibly painful for quite a few days after, but now at home with a good balance of pain relief to aid me I am doing great considering.

I can’t thank you enough for all the love, warmth, positivity and genuine concern you’ve all shown me in the messages that both Fiona and I have received. It has been incredible and I’ve felt very loved and cared about. It’s as if you all joined together to create this great big virtual blanket to wrap around my shoulders and give me a hug, much needed at times.

Once again a big thank you for being there for me.

Pete

Sounds like he's doing well and in good spirits, which is great.

[Cocopjojo]

Wow, that’s great that he’s doing well after all of that.

I wonder who will fill in for him when Marillion plays on the cruise in a week. I am not a big Marillion guy - is there a regular fill in for him when he’s out? Has he ever even been out?

[Metro]

They announced that Nick Beggs will fill in for him.

Sounds great with Ted singing this and the background singers!

[Skeever]

Holy crap, I had no idea about Pete. That sucks. Hope he pulls through OK.

Got my Morsefest 2022 box set and... well... popped the BluRay in. Something's not quite right about it. There are some weird audio skips/muffles in the first song, and it gets even worse by the second song. I didn't try any other songs yet, and didn't try any other devices except my PS5. Very curious to see if others have any similar issues as they dig into this...

[Metro]

You've gotten yours already? Where did you order from?

Radiant

[Metro]

Wow. Not calling you a liar or anything, I'm just surprised to see it released a whole 3 weeks early.

[faizoff]

Radiant

That's awesome, I usually order from Radiant as I don't mind waiting most times. This time the shipping cost was too much so decided to go with Laser CD. I still haven't watched the Paris show so I guess I'm in no hurry to get the Morsefest show.

[Skeever]

I wasn't tracking the release date that close so I just assumed I hadn't gotten it that early. Wow!

I'll email Radiant about this and see what they say. I guess check your discs when you get them, folks!

I listened to the CDs in the car this week. Really exceptional show, I think. I might prefer Paris slightly (felt more emotional, with the backdrop of them thinking it was the last), but obviously the setlist here is really special. I skipped out on Whirld Tour when that was released so I'm really happy to have a form of it here.

Holy crap, I had no idea about Pete. That sucks. Hope he pulls through OK.

He seems to have done fine with the surgery and is looking more or less himself.

Just got my tracking number for Transatlantic - Morsefest 2022 from LaserCD. I might actually watch this if it comes by the weekend.

[Metro]

Same here. Looking forward to it!

[ProfessorPeart]

Just saw my shipping info from Laser as well. Should have by, or even before, Friday.

[Stadler]

Me four.
