Live Scenes From New York 21st Anniversary release today

[DragonAttack]

Just thought it was note worthy on its very auspicious temporary arrival on the shelves

[Samsara]

The weird thing is, I can't remember getting this. I got it, with the original cover, but I don't remember how. Given the events of that day, I know it wasn't on September 11. My guess is, since I went home to Long Island the weekend after 9/11, I grabbed it from The Wiz that Saturday, which was the most local place to buy CDs by my parents' house then. As much as I love the original cover, I am glad they modified it. Anyone old enough to be impacted by 9/11...it was the most eerie feeling I've ever had. It felt like the end was nigh for several days.

That has to be one of the most unfortunate and bizarre coincidences in the history of music.

I'd have to look up the details but I think I read that several other musicians I'd never heard of had albums released around that time that were focused on the twin towers exploding.

[Dublagent66]

I'm sure there were, but how many of them were released on the same day as the attacks?

[KevShmev]

I still have my copy tucked away with all of my other CDs (which are still all boxed up since moving last year).

Unsure. Here's one that was scheduled to be released in September, but couldn't find an exact date. Was halted and released a few months later with a different album cover.

[Wim Kruithof]

I still think it's too bad they didn't released it on vinyl. Which is also the case with Chaos in Motion, Luna Park and Breaking the Fourth Wall.

Everything else released on vinyl is already shining in my living room, but I still miss these.

I think it was RunOutGroove site that had a poll some time ago where LSFNY was one of the options for a vinyl pressing. Too bad we could not get enought votes. Maybe next time we'll get it .

About Breaking the Fourth wall, i'm hoping they can sell new editions of the BR+CD or DVD+CD edition someday. Missing that CD version + ToT Vinyl. If they launch vinyl of Luna Park, Breaking the Fourth Wall or Chaos In Motion would also be nice!

Ai, too bad I didn't know back then, although my vote wouldn't make a difference. Both the vinyl Train of Thought and the Breaking the Fourth Wall editions are not that hard to find on Discogs. You'll get your hands on it with not that much difficulty. I got a white edition of Train of Thought. If they wouldn't sell it on vinyl in the future, an artbook like Luna Park would also be very fine.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've been tracking the ToT vinyl there for around 2 yrs and it's always > $200...may have to pull the troggee one day haha. The cd version of breaking the fourth wall i've never been able to see being listed, but i'll keep trying .

Somehow I ended up getting the 3CD & 1BD set (for the CDs) and the 2DVD set, because at the time of release, I didn't yet own a BD player. It was astounding that they didn't make it a 2DVD/3CD set like they did with Chaos In Motion, and just release the BD by itself because most folks at that time probably didn't own a BD player.

Regarding live albums on vinyl - I think because of how long DT live albums tend to be, making them would be very difficult because they'd probably take a long time to make (given the delays and backlog in vinyl pressing) and the production numbers would likely be low and limited because each album would require at least 3LPs if not 4 or more (9 or 10 sides of vinyl in the case of LSFNY). I cannot imagine the shipping on 5LP LSFNY! I'm sure there'd be a market for them, but they'd be super expensive just to recoup the costs.

[Wim Kruithof]

Marc, that's true, but I do own Once in a LIVEtime, Life at Budokan and Score as well. And these are also 4 LP's. So it's possible, but somehow they didn't felt like doing.

Interested in selling the CD/BD package?      That's one of my two DT holy grails (the other is the Lifting Shadows CD, though I have the music from both at this point).

Sadly no, I shan't be parting with any of my DT collection anytime soon, unless I'm reaaaaally strapped for cash. Hopefully you can find one eventually though!
If you're lucky, they'll re-release it at some point, but who knows.

Yeah, no worries.  I'm just putting it out in the universe in case Mike finds an extra copy in his storage and feels kind.
