We're just waiting for the final mixes to be done, but when it is I'll upload it.

Fit fit?

Actually it took me aboot 45 minutes because I got lost on the way, and had to stop in some wee town to try and work out where the fuck I was, and try to find Mark's phone number.

In fact using modern technology I can give you almost exact times.



Now the "last played" tab relates to when the song finishes. I put on "In Utero" just as I was leaving Aberdeen and approaching Cults. As the first track is 3 minutes long and finished at 13.53 I can deduce that I pressed play at around 13.50 (I was running late). As I arrived at Exile, 'All Apologies' was on. The track previous to that finished at 14.28, so that's approximately 38 minutes. Add in 5 minutes to clear the city and get on the road to Cults, and the couple of minutes it was into 'All Apologies' when I switched the car off and I would say around 45 minutes. I must have left it playing with the engine switched off and it's played the thirty odd minutes of silence and the hidden track without the aid of speakers.

That was pointless but oddly fun
