At last! The box set has been delivered. Unfortunately, no Ticket For Life, but I already have the ticket for their concert in Zwolle (IJsselhallen), so I'm settled.

For those who don't have it yet: it's worth the wait. It really is!

Frantiq, the "Ticket for Life" is stuck to the outside of the box so your wife could probably check it for you without having to unseal it. All she'd have to do is take it out of the cardboard box I'm guessing it came in and the ticket would be right there for her to see.

"Anyways, let me show you my new means of transportation..."

No ticket 4 life, but the boxset itself is GREAT! Well worth the wait!!

I just got my litho... is it really this low quality or maybe it's just the reprints that are? It just looks like it was printed from a laserjet printer on to card stock.

I'm a little disappointed...

Unlike BCSL, the ADTOE box set doesn´t come with the "procucer´s edition": the separated tracks of each instrument. I became really, really, really disappointed with this.

And the "litho" is really low quality, as the poster they gave to fans at Meet and Greet.

Don´t know why they do this.....I think we deserve a little more...

But.........

Compared to the BC&SL box set...this one falls far behind. From the cheap looking litho to the just as cheap looking turntable mat..this was more than a little disappointing. Glad we got the gate-fold for the album's...but we should have received the stem's in this set as well. Is it just me or did these seemed to be rushed out so there were no more delay's....even a friend of mine ( who is not a DT fan ) said it looked cheap compared to BC&SL box set.

This box set was a little cheaper than BC&SL... I just assumed that was b/c the outer box was better and the lack of a 'producer's edition'. But the overall quality is a a bit subpar - the coloring is off on the box, the litho should not even be called a litho, and the CD itself is nearly impossible to get out of it's holding spot. I ended up tearing mine slightly.

I don't think I'll be buying another box set in the future.
