I'm fairly excited for the live mixes.Originally Posted by Space Suicide

Here's the thing, though: the live mixes are also coming out on the box set, which I'm sure you'll download even if you didn't shell out the $175.

What's your point? They were going to release this collection one way or another. At least the band decided to take part.
Stubby Member
Yeah that's the plan. I'm interested in new material even though I think the band is a shambling skeleton of what it used to be, offering up scraps in the the most crass, greedy, and uncreative way possible.

From facebook:
"After reading your comments, we've decided to make the audio and video from the now sold out box set, A Perfect Circle Live: Featuring Stone and Echo available digitally on Nov. 26. There are a total of five digital releases being made available: Stone And Echo (DVD), Stone And Echo (audio), Mer De Noms Live (audio), Thirteenth Step Live (audio) and eMOTIVe Live (audio, and includes live versions of the band's new song "By And Down" as well as the "Diary of a Madman/Lovesong" medley. We'll post pre-order links as soon as they are available."

You're right- sorry, I don't know what i was thinking why am i even oh god

My point is that Three Sixty is a missed opportunity. They could have included DIFFERENT live stuff - like anything off of the Live in Phoenix promo disc. Or, even better, the Thirteenth Step acoustic sessions that never saw full release. It would have been really easy to make this desirable.

fuck yes!!!!

A radio station in Ohio played (studio) By and Down 30 minutes ago. Missed it. :-(

Hopefully now that it's out there it'll show up in the usual places.

They're marketing the hell out of By and Down for the simple fact they know that's all they got to show for this upcoming release. I like live recordings but I was never jizzing my pants for any during my fandom. Most fans are probably like me - wanting new studio recordings and fresh things. Live versions aren't much a thing new really. We've all had or heard bootlegs.

Hopefully this is all throat-clearing for new studio material to come at some point.
I guess also they gauge the response this stuff gets, which also might help motivate them.

This image is so much better than the official 360 artwork.

They definitely gauge the response to this stuff. People forget that artists get and give instant feedback these days. I remember an interview where Maynard said he felt like they stuck his neck out a little with eMOTIVe and got their heads chopped off.

I'll regret not paying for the "limited edition" of this, when I download the torrents.

Has anyone deciphered the runes in the picture I posted? I'm away from my computer for a week and can't do it.
Stubby Member
"YOU AND YOUR EMTPTY ALLOCUTION" I'm guessing they're lyrics...?
Stubby Member
Those are indeed By and Down lyrics. "showing only your missing pieces/'til the tide betrays you/and your empty allocution"

I looking forward to the official releases of Diary of a Madman and Ashes to Ashes. None of the recordings that are floating around sound all that great

By and Down isn't going to be released as an mp3?
We have to buy the 360 cd?
House Always Wins
I don't see why not but if it isn't, I wouldn't be surprised.
I'm still torrenting this when it's released.
Too Privileged to Get It
yeah... I unfortunately will be hitting up pirate bay or something. I don't generally buy or listen to live albums anyway, so the only thing I want from this is any and all extra studio tracks, and if I can't download those separately, then the choice is obvious.
I'm actually quite annoyed by the fact that because I bought the box set I have to either wait an extra week to hear the material or purchase the digital downloads on TOP of my $150 box set purchase since the box set is being shipped 12/2 and the digital downloads are available 11/26.
Active Member
That is pretty annoying, all things considered. Maybe they'll provide a voucher for a digital download
Stubby Member
By and Down sounds ah-maaazing. I will ilegally download the crap out of that song.
Billy Howerdel fanboy
That's pretty fantastic.
