I just started reading the LotR outloud to my two younger siblings. I may as well join the conversations on the chapters. I'll be slow in reading...the chapters are long, and reading out loud can get difficult after thirty minutes.
But, I'll still join in when I can.
As to Davem - I don't think I have a first edition, and I am reading out my copy, which, I believe, is a third edition...? So, tough - I'm not reading from a first edition.
