Music Review: Gigantour 2
Published February 21, 2008
Bottomline. Stronger than it appears, the 2006 version of Gigantour offered up a number of gems and brought a good variety of metal to the masses. This CD gives a good taste of what went down with a selection of the respective bands better cuts. Combine this with the DVD and you have a nice package commemorating the tour.
Recommended.

The promo disk had the 15th track, but it would not play it on anything, it actually locked the pc players. I figured it was a glitch, as the DVD ran 90 2 minutes, even though the video was only about 66 minutes. Plus, I have not seen any mention of the 15th track... weird.
Did you get a press release from your contact? I got a few sheets of paper, and the first one mentions the 15th track "Peace Sells" in the second paragraph, right before the track listing.
If you didn't already, try putting your CD in a stereo system if you have one (instead of a PC) and see if it works. That is weird that you're having problems with this one track. Perhaps you should ask your contact for a new copy then.

Once again, good summary of the Gigantour comp, but your forgot to add that "Peace Sells..." actually rounds out the CD and is a hidden, unlisted track. Are you not able to play it on your CD player or did your promo copy not have the song on it?
