I missed it too! Apparently there was ANOTHER disc to “A Best of Us…” released back in May, but appears to be an iTunes exclusive. It has 18 tracks:

“Authority Song” (Originally by John Mellencamp)
“Brown Eyed Girl (Skacoustic)” (Originally by Van Morrison)
“Hungry Like the Wolf” (Originally by Duran Duran)
“Keep A Cool Head” (Originally by Desmond Dekker)
“Mama We’re All Crazy Now” (Originally by Slade)
“The Long Run” (Originally by Eagles)
“Twist and Crawl” (Originally by The English Beat)
“Won’t Back Down” (Originally by Tom Petty)
“Another F.U. Song” (Clean Version)
“Are You Sure This Is Cool” (Instrumental, Previously Unreleased)
“Cannibal” (Re-recorded)
“Down in Flames”
“Good Thing” (Ska Version)
“The Kids Don’t Like It”
“One Hit Wonderful” (New Demo Version)
“Cheer Up” (Live in Fullerton, CA)
“Snoop Dogg, Baby” (Live in Fullerton, CA)
“S.R.” (Masters Version, Live in Anaheim, CA)

Some of those tracks were already released with previous bonus editions/online exclusive versions of the album (Another FU Song, Are You Sure This is Cool, One Hit Wonderful, Snoop Dogg Baby)

Not sure which of the covers are re-records, but Hungry Like the Wolf definitely is, and the skacoustic Brown Eyed Girl is new.

Cannibal, Down in Flames, and Good Thing are all new records, and I assume Kids Don’t Like It is too, since it was absent from all previous releases of the best ofs.

The live versions of Cheer Up and SR haven’t been previously released to my knowledge.

iTunes has the album listed at 19.99, with each individual track at .99. If you don’t already have the “Best of Us…” album you’ll get 78 tracks for that price, which is worth it even if you only want 20 tracks.

That’d be a pretty sweet jersey too… is it the one with their logo on it?  I got mine from a site, they made the shorts and undershirt custom for a good deal.

I probably got it from someone on this board a while back, but I do have the full version of the thumbnail you were talking about.

Any updates on this?  I’d really like to see some RBF in RB.

[airmancoop44]

Wow, grabbed a few tracks, thanks for all the hard work!

[airmancoop44]

RBF played at Rowan twice while I was there. Once they were headlining and played a full set (90 mins probably). The next time they opened for Third Eye Blind, so only played about 45 minutes I believe. As a joke, they started to play Sell Out midway through (they had already opened with it), but the idiots in the audience wanted them to play it again…. so they did. Played Sell Out twice. Wonderful.

[airmancoop44]

Awesome. I was hoping RBF would take advantage of RBN.

[airmancoop44]

Didn't notice any previous discussion. But my main point is: Does RBF know about it?

[airmancoop44]

Anyone know the year those tracks AngryOpossum posted were recorded? Obviously around the time of FFF

[airmancoop44]

The show I went to on the 10th had what I thought was a pretty varied and different setlist. I forget what they played, but some of the selections were first times for me and and surprising choices. When Aaron asked a girl to request a song, she picked Valerie and they played it well.

That first review is the same one on iTunes….

My review: Happy that they released something, it's nice to get something new every year. Wasn't expecting gold, and didn't get it. Not bad by any means, but it's exactly what everyone is expecting. Nothin' But a Good Time, Won't Back Down, and Talk Dirty to Me recommended.

Thanks!

He actually joked about killing himself during tonight's show (TLA in Philly).
