So this set will probably look fantastic, but sound like s**t.

That's what I am thinking, there probably is not a "do not send Turbo" option either.

All I saw in this was US TOUR.

Even without KK, bring it on!

Edit: Just went to the link and saw the dates. I retract my "bring it on!" and replace it with "thanks a lot for not coming within 300 miles of me, dickheads!"

Patience....maybe they'll make it to you on the second wave.

I haven't been following priest very carefully lately, but now that I'm caught up lets just say I'm less than enthused.

Imprint

Can they possibly make them sound worse than the last remasters? I'm betting, yes.

Ropes Pierre

They should let Iggy work the boards. Or a chimpanzee who will just turn everything up, same difference.
