There is a bootleg dvd of the full show but would be great to get an official release
anofficial release that's better then the bootleg
Indeed.
They will probably just release the same ol bootleg. :

Diff version of dear boy rap

I'm eagerly waiting for the deluxe version of 'London Town'. Lots of great extras Paul could include on the 2nd disc..& 3rd disc!

Anyone read the interview with Paul discussing RAM and other things? http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/4145012-paul-mccartney-discusses-songwriting-and-ram-with-mansuns-paul-draper?ticker Very cool idea to let an "expert" interview him, though I'd rather chosen John Power if I had anything to say Anyway, interesting and honest interview I think. P.S. Does anyone know how some people manage to use an anchor text if they link to a page? HTML doesn't work for me on here although I have enabled it.

Count me in on that as well. I imagine the bonus disc will yield Mull, Girl's School, Waterspout and others. If Venus, Speed, and WOA all were to come out at Christmas perhaps that would put London Town deep into next year.

Now if we can just hear some songs off Ram this next tour Well it would be nice!! Back Seat of My Car and Monkberry Moon DELIGHT would be so awesome plus the other new adds would be a dream concert...
Absolutely Do you think there's any chance (maybe a tiny one?) that he might add one or two the Horsens setlist already?

An interesting review from a Web site Called The Vinyl District: Gives Ram an A+ Here's the link: http://www.thevinyldistrict.com/storefront/2012/05/graded-on-a-curve-paul-linda-mccartney-ram/

Well either Paul or someone at Hear Music has a very good sense of humor. There's a full page ad in the latest issue of Rolling Stone for Ram. Here it is: Notice at the top of the ad the words: " A MONUMENTALLY RELEVANT RECORD." Now consider this excerpt from Rolling Stone's 1971 review trashing the album:
Ram represents the nadir in the decomposition of Sixties rock thus far. For some, including myself, Self-Portrait had been secure in that position, but at least Self-Portrait was an album that you could hate, a record you could feel something over, even if it were nothing but regret. Ram is so incredibly inconsequential and so monumentally irrelevant you can't even do that with it: it is difficult to concentrate on, let alone dislike or even hate...
And of course this is the issue in which Rolling Stone gives the album 4 and a half stars.

Mine came today and I'm off tomorrow so can dive into it!!

I FINALLY received the lithograph and t shirt today!! the lithograph had a little bend in it, but once framed you couldn't even notice. The t shirt is GREAT quality. It's American Apparel brand and is a very nice fabric with a great fit. It isn't like most of the normal t shirts that he sells at concerts. I highly recommend ordering the lithograph and shirt! The picture shows the shirt as white, but it's not. It's more of a tanish/light brown. It looks very nice!

Brilliant! I'm glad I waited for this album. It was worth it. I'm enjoying RAM a LOT.

Yes...isn't that the truth! BRILLIANT! It is so completely relevant. It could fit in today very easily. So could Paul. (as someone said on another list)He could step right out of those pictures & be a part of today's rock scene.

Nice feature on Ram on NPR's Web site: http://www.npr.org/blogs/allsongs/2012/05/29/153918168/old-music-tuesday-paul-mccartneys-ram Doesn't really say anything new -- it's just appreciating the album in all its glory.
