Sweet! They played a concert in Baltimore with a bunch of other bands yesterday, but tickets were out of my price range, so I didn't go. I hear that they still have it in them, which is good news.

I've heard Zak Starkey play drums before. He's roughly 963761204 times better than Ringo.

I have mixed feelings about what I expect from it, but I'll definitely buy it.

Pretty much exactly my feelings.

Which doesn't say much at all.
