I'm trying to get through as much as I can while approaching 2:30 AM. Only up to New Years Day at this point.

My initial impressions:

Was I the only one who felt a bit on the emotional side hearing them back again?

I LOVE the false-ending of THINFS leading into an extended outro/second guitar solo with repeated of "I'm coming home!" When was the last time a lead single got a live treatment that didn't mimic the studio version down to the length/arrangement?

Thus far my excitement level for the album is at an all time high on more than one level based on what I've heard.
