I think I asked before, and I realize its a bit of a untoward thing to request, but...
Is anyone who got the _physical_ set willing to share the PDF of the book? I bought the iTunes version of the box set, which frustratingly doesn't include the PDF.

this may have been talked about, but my version of Dexter's Chalk has what sounds like lyrics missing in the Drift Album version. right before "we all fall down" there are lyrics that were in the weekly release that aren't there in the official release. it sounds like a mistake to me and not a change for artistic reasons. anyone else notice this?

YESS!! My box has shipped from ebay!

I hope it won't be any problem with the delivery, because it comes from Italy...

Nice catch. I missed that, even after listening to the album multiple times now. The lyric that has been truncated is "atishoo, atishoo", part of the "Ring a Ring o' Roses" nursery rhyme lyrics.

Just make sure you wipe everything down.

Cannot believe it the box arrived today! I'm so happy!

seems like a deliberate decision (and one i agree with) considering you still get the "a-" at the beginning.
rick emphasizes, especially in talking about Drum Street, that you have to pick the words/phrases that have the right quality for a track, and it's mostly on instinct (and in drum street's case, a whole highway ramble produced exactly four). if "tissue" felt right then but started grating later on, then cutting it in the final product is just how it goes.

what makes it feel like a mistake to me is precisely that hard "uh" sound. why include that tiny portion? it feels wrong to me now but maybe that's because i was included in the process with the first release of the track
