I'm kinda wondering what they're gonna do for the other albums. How much unreleased (at least officially) stuff is left from the KTF sessions? They'd have a great DVD with An Evening With, but as for a second CD, is there really that much? Cadillac Man might fit this time around, but that's all I can think of.

Either way, if this one's reasonably priced, I'm in. There's some great stuff among the previously unreleased tracks. Just let's hope they improved the audio quality.

Well, about a possible KTF Deluxe Edition, probably Save a Prayer, Starting All Over Again and I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas as Bonus Track for Disc 1. About Disc 2, would be interesting with All Wound Up, Skin Deep, Water Into Wine, Love is Just Another, The Sole Of Truth, Fields Of Fire (different take), Revenge (Keep The Faith Demo), Dry County (Demo), The Radio Saved my Life Tonight (different take), and Cadillac Man. Could also include some live tracks from KTF Tour as Bed Of Roses (Electric Version) and IF I Was Your Mother. DVD: An Evening With Bon Jovi is a great option.

First off, lets just start with cost. 90% of the people here who are already complaining, are the ones who plan on ripping this off. With that said, they are going to cut costs because they know all you greedy bastards are going to steal this and prevent other cool releases anyway. If you people actually did purchase the material, maybe they would put some addition costs into it. And without listening to it or seeing the booklet, you don't even know what to expect yet anyway.

Second, this is exactly what everyone wanted and cried about when the 100M fans was released. They didn't get the songs that were already released. aka the NJ Demos. That's all I read about back then. Cry Cry Cry.

Third, they are not going to empty out the entire vault. They are going to save songs for future projects and perhaps another bot set in the future.

Forth, we don't know if other NJ songs do exist in such a quality to be released anyway.

Fifth, there are some nice surprises such as House Of Fire / Diamond Ring / Full Moon / Etc...

Sixth, these are demos that were never produced. Beside correcting the speeds and removing the hisses, I wouldn't expect much more from Obie but that's okay. I appreciate the rawness as a die-hard fan.

Seventh, they did get it right. All these other requests about these live shows have nothing to do with the album NEW JERSEY! This is an awesome bundle of HQ video and sound. There is already so much live shit out there from this period already, why would you possibly want more. Better Sound? Sure, lets start with the demos first... Hey, it's better then them taking all the live performance from the past 10 years and including that as the bonus disk.

Yes, this is a nice improved bundle of the intended original album plus its video releases. It's not the next box set of unreleased material. I think it's ****ing awesome.

Sure there are a few more that I wanted included but then again, they probably had to cut cost because of illegal downloading. Basically what Seb said he was going to do so thank him for Cadillac Man not being included.

Do we even know for sure if any of these demos exist? Revenge might have been the title of an early version of KTF, but I'm not so sure it ever was recorded as such. The same goes for Water Into Wine.

Confirmed:

- NJ Deluxe Box
- Richie's Solo Album

Predictions - Rumors:
- Rumor has it Jon is working on a Solo album - Obie to confirm next week
- Looks like some sort of live DVD might be in the works - Current time tours
- More future Deluxe releases:
- KTF - I'm sure there will be songs recycled from the last box (which people will complain about) but there should be additions too - Again, a proper KTF Box. An Evening with Bon Jovi and KTF the Videos.
- Sex Sells - There are still a handful of song titles we've never heard.
- SWW - Still a handful of demos that need a proper release.

Unlike the first time around, were Obie ignored everything in cyberspace, it looks like the opposite is going to happen this round. The Bon Jovi management camp aren't stupid. I'm sure they know everything that's out there. esp what's on YouTube. I'm sure they also read comments, of which most are positive.

I think this is the way they need to do it. I don't think a second box set with everything on it would fly. They are spreading it out by mixing it in with other releases.
