It's just the CD cut to vinyl, you should frame it and put it on your wall just for the sake of it!

Yeah that was pretty weird, only 10 shows or something like that. BUT...at least they recorded the entire album being played live at Sony Studios in LA and released it on Blu-ray so we all got to experience that tiny unique show they did in our living rooms.
It's a great disc, lots of replay value. Midnight is really good.

The biggest band in history of course, The Beatles!!!!
No touring for Peppers, The Beatles, Abbey Road or Let It Be.
That said I agree with your assessment and think it's highly unlikely we'll get an album of NEW songs until we're within a few months of another tour. But an album of old songs?
