Anyone know if a date is set on this? I know they've been busy with their new 'proper' release and the Christmas on Mars film but man I'm anxious to hear it.
The Lips live drummer "Kliph" posts on flaminglips.com every now and again. A couple weeks ago a question was asked about the Soft Bulletin DVD-A, his response was this...
"I would expect it to be some time within the next couple of months (I don't think there's an official release date yet.) Wayne and George finished up all the stuff for the booklet last night."

But uh....if you don't want the Lips album, buy this one (samples) with downtempo music on it & before only the DualDisc version is available. Because I would like a complete review before I spend *my* money on it :wink: (I'll be sure to give you an e-handshake for doing so though ).
