PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.


STILL SEALED individually numbered first UK pressing from November 7, 2006 on Island / Mercury a live version recorded in New Orleans on the B-side!!!  I bought this new at the Virgin Megastore (R.I.P.) here in Chicago 16(!) years ago and filed it away in my personal collection until today when I took these pics.  Still has the original blue circular Virgin Import sticker on the front an MADE IN ENGLAND import sticker on the rear.  Even has the original custom barcoded Virgin price sticker in the top right hand corner on the rear!!!  Virgin used to seal their imports in-house in a loose-fitting cellophane after they were tagged and this one is no exception.  Someone once accused me of having a record re-sealing machine of some kind so now I leave nothing to chance.  Four sharp corners and not a hint of ring.  A pristine, still sealed copy with airtight provenance.  As mint as it gets.  This is what collecting is about so don't sleep U2 / Green Day collectors.  You will not be disappointed.
