Multitrack files for every song 2. b-sides and demos 3. Trent's written retrospective on the making of The Fragile 4. A DVD containing Trent and others performing all of the songs on the album. This would make me complete. YES!!! THAT.

I kind of agree with this, as it is impossible to listen to with any other noise in the background and actually hear the piano bits without the rest of it blasting your ears off

We're not discussing The Fragile anymore, we're talking about Theme From Tetsuo Bullet Man. Which has too much dynamic range.

I was kind of hoping they wouldn't screw around too much with the mix.

Which has too much dynamic range. i was wondering about that, actually, since that's all you ever seem to post about the Tetsuo theme. it's really a non-issue; that track is as dynamic as "The Mark Has Been Made" or "We're in This Together," but because the piano is muffled when it comes in the first time, the piece suddenly has poorly-done dynamics. they're called headphones! use them! it's an extremely effective dynamic shift, much like the mandolin shimmers before all hell breaks loose in the middle of "The Day the World Went Away."

My dream kit would be: -Hard casing -The Fragile remastered tracks on cd, bluray, and multi tracks -DVD containing Fragility tour footage -Booklet containing tour photos, artwork, etc. As well as short history of the making of The Fragile I considered limited edition numbering, but that narrows how many people can own it, and a big jump in price range.

Rob said when asked about it: "@PMartinez527 It got pushed back for a variety of reasons. It's still happening, but it's a ways away." It was a few months ago on twitter so it's kind of a huge pain in the ass to locate. Edit: Looks as if the tweet was deleted. No idea why. Edited 1 time(s).

Did you also do the visuals for that tour on the screens? @rob_sheridan well they blow my mind!!! How many GB of footage did you have? and how did you break the editing down? 3:25 AM Aug 16th via TweetDeck Canton, MI rob_sheridan posted: @RITCNIN I don't remember how many GB. At the time the biggest drives we could get were 60gb, and we had over 20 of them chained together. 3:27 AM Aug 16th via TweetDeck @RITCNIN We synced every video we had from each song as best we could, then just took it song by song. 40+ angles to choose from sometimes. 3:28 AM Aug 16th via TweetDeck Ok, so they have unreleased stuff from AATCHB, so maybe they could use it on the reissue. For instance, they could add live videos for even deeper, the fragile, get down make love and so on(just checked the fragility setlists).

I was just listening to that song with headphones at full blast, never had to adjust the volume once. Those unexpected loud parts are supposed to be shocking and to catch you off guard. It's part of the madness involving the entire Tetsuo theme. Then again, you didn't get Tetsuo: The Iron Man, so maybe it's just not for you.
