Wondering what will happen when the album is played back - will we have visuals, lights down low, Neil and Chris providing intros to each track ...

I'm dreaming of course and suspect it won't be any of those things ... and the boys won't even be on stage till the interview itself.
I went to the one for Yes at the ICA. They played the album through, with a graphic with the song titles projected on a screen, then Neil and Chris and an interviewer came on stage after.
And you had to pay for that?

Ill be happy to pay for the livestream and join in the celebration of my favorite band.

It’s a long-running joke to call The Guardian newspaper “The Grauniad” because it used to be notorious for having spelling mistakes in its articles.
It was Private Eye who sustained that ongoing joke but it may even predate that.

Yes, it was an early listen to the album and an interesting discussion panel

Hey!
Noticed Neil and Chris are appearing at a Guardian event in London on Mon 22 April. Looks like in-person tickets have sold out but it's being livestreamed! :D
