On the plus side, the [=HDTracks=] version of ''Yoshimi'' is mostly unaffected at [=DR11=]; on the minus side, it's a mixdown of the 5.1 DVD mix to stereo and some people find it unlistenable.

Steven is a multi-instrumentalist capable of playing guitar, keyboards, drums, bass, as well as creating multi-layered backing vocals, but Wayne's skill set is mostly limited to vocals and rhythm guitar.
