| | A record company is talking to us about re-released Mechanics of Perilous Times. It would probably contain some 'bonus tracks'. What would you rather have, a few live tracks or some Mechanics demo tracks? Any other suggestions? |

| I think a re-release should have bonus tracks that are relevnt to the release. So if you have demos and live tracks of songs from the release, or from that time period in the bands existence, I say use it all!

| Since I do not have that album I would definitely buy it.
It would be a great idea to re-release it, to get a better production.
As for the bonus part I would prefer some demos extra that didn't made the album, It would be a great idea. |

| Cover Denim and Leather and throw that on there. It would only take, like, five minutes.

I have a demo version of "Temple of the Spirit" with a totally different guitar solo I was thinking of adding.
Any live versions would probably be recorded in the last few years, but we could included songs that are from that album.
I also have an early (03) demo version of "Heart of Metal" I was thinking of including.

| | Any demos of songs that didn't make the cut? I always liked hearing stuff like that on re-releases. |

| | I always liked hearing live tracks as bonus material like Judas Priest and Tourniquet did on their re-releases. Scott, you guys should put a few live tracks. |

There are actually two live tracks on the end of "Symphonic", although
only one track is listed. The other is a 'bonus/suprise'. It's not my
greatest vocal performance, as it was incredibly hot and we were at the
end of the show, but I enjoy the song overall, so I thought I'd include
it anyhow.
Mechanics has one live song, but it's a long one and includes the old guitar intro we use to do before Steve left. |
