From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
30 Years Live is an upcoming live album from the band Bad Religion, to be released on May 18, 2010, therein documenting the band's upcoming 30th anniversary tour. It will be the band's first live album in 13 years, since Tested in 1997. Rather than a standard release, the live album will be available for downloading online at Bad Religion's official website.
Background
On March 4, 2010, it was announced on the band's website that they would be recording a new live album during their spring tour of 2010. It has not been announced which concerts will be recorded for the album. The official quote from the website reads:
"To celebrate three decades of Bad Religion, we'll be recording a live album during our spring 2010 tour, and offering it as a free "thank you" to the loyal fans who've been with us through all the sweat and mayhem. So let us know who you are by joining our mailing list below, and sometime late spring we'll let you know how you can get your free Bad Religion 30 Years Live download. We'll be playing a few tracks at the shows from our new album, coming this fall, so this will be a great way to get a preview of the new tunes.
Thanks again to the greatest and best-looking fans a band could hope for."
Release
The live album will not be sold in stores, probably due to the troubles the band had in 1997 trying to get the record company to sell Tested. Instead, it will be a free download for fans who sign up to the mailing list on the band's website. Click this link to sign up to the mailing list. Sometime later, you'll be e-mailed a link and a code where you can download the album for free. On March 8, 2010, it was announced on the Epitaph Blog that the album will be released on May 18, 2010 for a short period only.
Track listing
The official track listing has not yet been confirmed, as of March 18, 2010.
