Sono indeciso, prezzo al negozio 39.90.
Mmm...aspetto un po', finisco la tessera e poi - forse - lo prendo a 19.90 euro.

Uscita che nulla toglie e nulla aggiunge al mito di Siouxsie e dei suoi Banhees.
Operazione che mi sa di raschiata del fondo del barile...
....e gente giusta che rifiuti d'esser preda
di facili entusiasmi e ideologie alla moda....

Si, senza dubbio. Però a 19.90 si potrebbe anche fare...a 40 no!

Preso.
Il dvd è davvero una chicca, la resa audio ottima con diversi brani che suonano più tosti e decisi.
Una raschiata di barile di tutto rispetto.
