I'd LOVE to own this, but I'm not dropping $260. I'd go $100, tops. But they're including a lot of awesome rare material & shows here. A hardcore fan like myself is both excited and annoyed. I hope some of the contents are released a la carte eventually.

big fan of Alice's garage band days with the spiders. Don't Blow Your Mind, No Price Tag, Why Don't You Love Me, Hitch Hike are so good. Does anyone know if they recorded more than that and its just never been released? Maybe that's what is on this box? It's the best stuff he ever recorded in my opinion. Don't Blow Your Mind is one of the best garage tracks of all time.

100% agree. I'm a huge fan, but this is priced way out of the range I'd want to pay for it.

$260?
Yikes! Looks like a cool set to have, but I don't think pay over $75 for it.

Makes me wish I still had the "Shools Out" LP with panties in place. Great box idea.

FYI, for anyone who cares this has been released in a stripped-down version, about the size of a DigiBook, featuring the 4 CDs along with extensive liner notes and pictures. Amazon has it for around $40.

Is the DVD that came with the original set being reissued too? It's kinda hard to find details about that DVD online...

The only info I could find on the DVD says it features 2 hours of interviews with the original band members and Bob Ezrin. I can live with that being omitted.
