After much deliberation, I've decided to go against everything I'm feeling right now and not get it. I love Thrice very much and I love collecting records, but as stated by someone else up there, it will be my least played and I already have most of their albums.

There are more records coming out with material I don't have that I feel would be a better use of funds. Hope this helps someone in the middle!

I hate cinderblock. Also I hate $60 for a 4xLP with a no frills gatefold packing. Apparently I am the opposite on most people when it comes to live albums however. I love them. Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains the Same is one of the best albums ever, as is Dire Straits - Alchemy, as is Pink Floyd - Pulse, as is The Band - The Last Waltz. The list could go on, but if you love a band, and they release a career spanning live album, and it is mastered well, you can't beat it. I wish I could hear some of the tracks off of this to decide. A band like Thrice that has been playing these songs for years is going to do them better live on a farewell tour than they were originally recorded. Especially the songs off of Identity Crisis and Illusion of Safety. Songs just naturally develop their own character over that much time. But $75 is still absurd.

You put forth a strong argument--nicely put. I agree, but I also agree that $75 is ridiculous. However, I'd pay it if it were for one of my top 10 bands, so I get the reason people are buying it despite the pricetag.
