That's because you're unable to pay attention more than 5 minutes, so you don't actually care it's not one full concert.

That is not a nice thing to say to person who really tries...

But, yes, I kind of prefer listening to live tracks in a mixture..

yeah sure there some gd live versions on it, dont get me wrong - KTF is a blinder, Saturday night is excellent too and Prayer, Runaway and even Inandouttalove are still gd. But IML as an opener and with that awfully sounding muddy talkbox, and that bloody song with geldof.. arghh. bad Mx and wanted, there are farrrrrr more superior versions out there. Dont know why they put TWO cover songs on the disc, theres not enough songs on there as it is. A cover song over the likes of Drycounty live or living in sin (or a list of others)?

And why on earth did they (Obi?) pick the shows that they did? The 80s and mid 90's arent represented as well as they should be on it.

it could have been so so so much better. at least a two disc set, 30 songs spanning their whole career, or even one whole complete show like from Wembley 95 etc

and that OWN remix on the end..sorry, what??

and no ****ing I dont ****ing like ****ing mondays please.

pardon my french


andi



p.s
why do people say ''pardon my french' anyway? its not like all curse words are french...

Found this on google :

"Some English-speakers stereotype the French as permissive about
anything risqué. This was particularly true a hundred years ago when
the phrase took off as an "apology" for swearing. "Excuse my French"
or "Pardon my French" isn't just play-acting that you're speaking a
foreign language. It's also a bit like saying, "I know those words are
naughty - but maybe I could get away with behaving like that in
France, where people are more tolerant of obscenity.""

When did I insult you? "You don't pay attention" is an insult?

In our everyday street language and humour yes, I think we are.
