Nice that we finally made it happen and have a pic to show for it. All that's missing is a NPF poster! :D Tremendous show, heavy on the AWWTM album, which I love.

Yes, I recently found that website and bookmarked it...been thinking of joining.

EDIT: I only made it through about 20 minutes of the six hour song (better than I thought it would be); been too busy. Might have to wait for a chores day at home on a weekend. My Gawd, I wonder how much space I need for the 24 Hr song??!!! <.8.>

I thought it was $5,000 plus tax and shipping in US funds and that they are sold out (only five available?)...BUT, on October 31, I believe an alternate way of obtaining the music will be made available.

Have you listened to it yet?

There is some pretty good stuff on there but there is also mundane stuff. At around the 15 hour mark it goes in to a section which is basicly:

Meeeeeeeeep plink plonk plink plonk plink plonk and this goes on for between 4 and 5 hours

I have not listened beyond the first minute or so yet...I am waiting for a stay at home cleaning day, so I can commit a bit of time.
