Reckless Endangerment
Just thought I'd post this because it's an update I saw on facebook and itsmorrisseysworld: (not really any new information)

There's no artwork shown (and none on the Amazon page, either). Maybe there's still hope, and a new, dazzling cover is in the offing.

But I doubt it. :o

As an outstretched arm [grasping at straws] slowly disappears...
 
Well we've already seen a tour poster, so it's extremely unlikely we'll see new artwork -- especially without the date being pushed back.
