I saw this recently, and had a chance to listen to it in the store.  I also
have a "Lifehouse Demos" CD on Howdy Records, which has more actuall
Lifehouse demos, without the last four above.
This version of the Demos sounds better than the Howdy records version.
They are totally clean, commercial quality demos, and an improvement over
the Howdy version.  If you have that one, you know how good they already
were!
Party & Lies is actually La La La Lies.
Motherland Feeling is very un-PT-like, almost Dylan-ish.  (Hmm...)
Rael is like the box set version but extended to about 5 minutes.
This CD is on Yellow Dog Records, one of the best "import" companies.
Tommy Demos is also on Yellow Dog.

Is this on Yellow Dog, too?  Great label, but they should pick more
original titles. ;)
Regarding roios in general, I wouldn't be surprised if some of this
material surfaced on the reissues.

>Each of these CDs costs $19.99, so my total WHO costs were over $61.00!!!!!!!
>That's a pretty expensive lunch, eh!?!?!?!?!?!??!

Actually very reasonable.  Some stores would charge $25+.

So who's going to the Convention?
