Anyone Have The New King's X Live CD Set?

Hi all, was just looking about for goodies on the net and came across this with a release date of November of this year. Has anyone bought it and if so, how's the sound?

I bought it the day it was released. It is the Live set that King's X fans have been dreaming of. It's brilliant.

The track list looks great on this sucker. As they are something of a band with a cult following I had heard nothing about this release till just browsing the net. Gonna have to pick this up!

I heard clips of all of the songs and passed. Not a fan of the long acoustic section and the thing that really pisses me off is that they had plenty of room on both discs to put alot more material.

I have it, it's excellent. Some of the reviews online said it has bad sound quality, but I didn't find that to be the case at all. Doug's bass sounds deeper than deep and his voice sounds terrifically soulful and powerful. Ty's guitar is very clean. The mixing leaves a little to be desired: Doug's voice is a little too out-in-front on a couple tracks and Ty's backing vocals are tough to hear sometimes. However, their trademark tightness is completely present, the grooves they get into are ridiculous. Great stuff, if you're a fan, pick it up.

I ordered this from Amazon a few days ago. With a catalog of great albums such as the one they have I'm kind of suprised they waited this long for a live release.
