BTCS streets is an amazing album and I'd love the bonus material, but I prefer to hear new and unreleased music over songs that are so ingrained in my brain that I could practically listen to the whole thing in my head right now. Yes, of course I'm buying a vinyl of the BTCS 25th Anni release, but I'm more interested in hearing the rest of the pandemic sessions and anything we didn't know of from before AND since Dave did the writing for those sessions.

The thing about post Big Whiskey DMB is a lot of the studio tracks are hit or miss. I run a lot to studio DMB tracks. Come Tomorrow has a few solid studio tracks I run on: Virginia in the Rain, Again and Again, Idea of You, and Black and Bluebird. The rest I hardly listen to while running or walking or just chillen in the crib.
Whereas a BTCS Vinyl and just 3 bonus tracks for digital FLAC/MP3 BTCS re-release would have me much more engaged and I already frequently have BTCS songs in my jogs outside of Stay.
I wish nothing but the best for this new album but the reality is we will most likely have half of it be solid and half of it be songs with limited to no replay value.
