Interesting. Amazon has a listing too:

Looks like a physical release of the iTunes Festival show. But still the same 6 tracks as the EP. You'd think they'd at least release the whole show.

Edit: There are a few articles about it. Basically it's the 6 tracks from the EP, plus the same 6 tracks on DVD (the same ones available on the video on demand). So, kinda lame, but good if you want it in physical form.

Why?

When you are a group who has a live CD/DVD like "Everything Everything" why would you follow that up with a show taken from a promotional gig, from early in the tour, rife with little mistakes... and with nothing new to offer...

this is poor


I hope it is an apple release and that it has very little to do with Underworld... because i cant imagine Rick who spent an age perfecting everything everything would simply throw this out the window on a whim..

Any of the Live here now gigs walk all over this...

not happy..

wont be buying it...

end of rant

[negative1]

why not? this is a special release for the japanese market. if they really wanted a more comprehensive release they'll put out something else.in the meantime others will be enjoying it.

Just for Japan? oh ok then fair enough... rant revoked

[Dirty0900]

I'd buy it seeing I was at that gig.

[Dirty Saint]

I was at the gig also BUT why not release the whole bloody concert ??

who knows? could be a lot of things...
1) they don't have the time to do it now, and want to get something
out..

2) maybe they'll put something else out (longer, more tracks) later on..

3) you could have asked this question when it came out originally,
so why wonder about it now ? (probably came down to a licensing issue)

there's a lot more speculative possibilities... but those seem the most
likely..

since every concert was 'fairly' similar, all it will take is just one good
recording of the show to make the rounds.. and that should make most
people happy...

hopefully they'll get around to doing it when they have the time..

Actually, it probably has to do with the rights. As they said for the Live Video EP:

"Why is this only available at these shows?
Because the material was filmed by iTunes and ITV, there are certain limitations over how we are allowed to use the material."

So maybe these are the only tracks they're allowed to use or something?

[purlieu]

That's fair, and less depressing than those other suggestions.

[charleswise]

I haven't seen it mentioned here.

Is this any official release?

The label putting it out seems odd.

Just curious.

the big, tedious question - why have to go through hmv JAPAN again? taking the fucking piss.
