Additional Informations And Comments:
The commercial policy runs by the label is somehow weird , but it cant be as bad as the lack of real bonus
The way the album was made is able to makes fans unhappy since the label inserted fans , crowd noise and mixed together multi concert sources :)
Props to hideki who provided informations months ago, and also owen
