And waiting for summer 2006 to come around when they drop the current drummer (Jason?) and lure back Boris.
By the way, as far as acronymns go, "THOTD" and "KMKMKM" read like Aphex Twin/Autechre song titles. Or Voivod/Magma albums.

your thoughts, then? surely the top outtakes will be righteously fucking insane? and thotd and kmkmkm might just out-pop the poppiest poppies, if done "properly"? eeeeep!

Yes. The tracks on Join the Dots won't be on the reissues.
― Vic Funk, Thursday, 17 November 2005 11:55 (eighteen years ago) link
But I mean no harm to 17 Seconds, either. I will never imagine a world where Faith exists without 17 Seconds.
Okay so no I have not bought the damn reissues, but money and time can change a lot of things, it's really remarkable.

(I'd suspect the A-sides of The Walk, Love Cats and LGTB are going to be orphaned like Killing An Arab, but who knows.)

I find that hard to believe, as "Lovecats" and "The Walk" are both among their biggest hits (and "Let's Go To Bed" - my all time favourite Cure track - was also a commercial breakthrough of sorts, although it was just a small hit). I guess they will be put on some second disc, which is fine enough.

A long long time ago...
I argued with a girl in a record shop in Ayr about who spotted a bargain copy of "Blue Sunshine" first. It was me, but I'd left it in search of other bargains, intending to come back to it and stupidly figuring no-one else would lift it in the meantime. I was passing the counter and to my horror I saw her about to pay for it. I argued and cajoled and pleaded with her to let me buy it instead, even offering to buy it off her at a profit, but to no avail. So I left the shop, empty handed and disconsolate.
About an hour later she appeared in front of me in the town centre, said "This means more to you than me", kissed me, handed me the record, and walked away.
I never even caught her name...

And having been to Ayr I can actually kinda imagine the setting.

Still, that's a nice story of how you got the record, Onimo.
