Aaaww hell diddly ding dong crap! There's just no way I can make it to shows far away from home these days. I wish I knew someone in Eindhoven who would be interested in attending the gig, but not in purchasing this gem for themselves.
Sometimes it sucks to be a must-have-everything fan.Edit: Selfish complaints aside, the release is of course an awesome thing to do.
Driving from Nydalen to Grünerløkka in Oslo, I just observed two old geezers and a younger dude heading downtown from Torshov, all three of them trønders. I guess it's recording time, then.
Ah, that picture is an instant classic! Hope you find him, Eirik. I'd love to see a full feature on this somewhere.
Oh, man. Call MP and put them in the back, do a one-off acoustic gig (on my porch in the summer, thank you very much) and make it Roadwork 5! :mrgreen:
You're not alone, TraktorBass.
I voted 8 Soothing Songs For Rut on 3rd place in the Øya poll. Imagine MP stretching that one out for two hours, including We All Float Down Here (Too). I'd love to see how they'd pull that off! 
Supernaut: It's probably Big Surprise you're thinking of, that one used to have Bent on acoustic guitar and Snah on bass.
Edit: I got the wrong date. It's a festival, in September.
That would’ve been great, but I’m afraid you’re mixing up Watersound with Giftland. I guess this must be the interview you’re talking about, vorsla.
@chien: It’s mentioned at the bottom of this page. They recorded a bunch of songs for an album at the Art Academy in Trondheim, all sessions during nighttime afaik (check band commentary on Mad Sun and/or Watersound on the Hair Cuts DVD). Then they ditched the whole thing, and some of the recordings were later released as B-sides.
Edit: Oh, and that Giftland thing is a different take. It’s a rather loose jam, isn’t it?
Isn’t it time to speculate on what songs we can expect to be included in the boxset? On The Toad Again is a safe bet as it was intended for the album, as well as Space Cadet Boogie and Seethe. I think Lake Innersfree by Sir Lord Baltimore was recorded at the Timmy sessions, too, but will they include cover songs? Then we’d probably also have Workin’ For MCA (Lynyrd Skynyrd) and Shock Me (Kiss). Hmm. And what about the remaining songs from the “lost album” from ’94, do they count? When the World Sleeps, Black W’abbit (Alabama Kids) and early versions of Stalemate, 7th Dream and Flick of the Wrist, I’d sure like to hear them all.
