You are cool, though your coolness rating on here would have gone right down if you'd mentioned having it!

Is that a hint that Simon Price slipped you a copy?

No, I don't even know the guy!

I tried to be very careful about it, I know a lot of people here are particular about spoilers and I didn't want to be in the awkward position of having to deny a copy in case someone asked me for it... 'cause I just couldn't give it out!

I guessed as much.

Hmm yeah, you did the right thing, it's not your fault that you got the copy but if you mention it then you deserve the innundation of people asking for a listen. Mum's the word as we say.

I nearly bought it today in HMV but i'll wait until it's reduced. Sadly the Manics don't excite me as much anymore to buy their albums on the day of release.

I've bought one 2-disc version, two one-disc versions (one as a present for my sister) and I downloaded it for £3.99 from Amazon to stick on my iPhone as the cd/dvd drive on my PC is gubbed.

I brought the one disc from Play.com but on Monday I also brought the 2 disc deluxe from HMV, it was a bit stupid though as I can only really afford to buy a couple of albums a year so thats really my album quota for the year unless win a tenner on a scratch card.

I just bought the 2 disc version, I ain't got money to throw away at the moment sadly. May pick up another standard copy next week for a friends birthday though.

I bought the 2 disc deluxe not knowing that I'd get the signed CD as an early birthday present from a friend and the boxset as a present from my brother!

2 disc version, Memento boxset and the one you missed from the ever important Japanese edition for the bonus tracks.

Well, I bought the Mementos box but it wasn't for me, I guess it's shared. The 2 disc & the signed edition, & also the Japanese single disc.

& For £3.99 on amazon I downloaded it too, on the principle put forward by Pete Townshend that we are the sponsors of a band like this. & If we want them to continue we have to show it. & Being able to say "Our last album was #1" may help them screw more money out of Sony for future projects.

"See Sony, see all that interest in the band? See the Greatest Hits charting again? Maybe if you help to get No Manifesto released you can capitalise on it?" etc etc
