REMASTERED BIG STAR. This is good news.

Still, $70 for a 4-disc box set? Pretty steep, if you ask me.

It looks like it'll be a glorified best of with a bunch of filler.  I'll probably still get it though, I'm a sucker for big star.  Just got the reissues of the first two on glorious analog record. 

where's the grifter's box?

Pretty much. I'm quite satisfied with the versions I already own. The Faces box set that Rhino did, on the other hand, is amazingly good.

I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Coincidentally, I just bought Big Star Story, so I will just be good with that.

I think these Neil Young Archives sets could be the things to replace ABBABox, based on Tom's latest tweets.

Fat Chance.  Dave and Scott have a new band called the New Mary Jane.  They should have a new record coming out soon.
