Pre-Order Thread

Free shipping only makes sense if it's on one record. After that, you can't factor in shippung to the cost of each record that would come in a bundle. Also, they charge me tax.
VMP does? That sucks. New West, Dualtone, Easy Eye Sound, Third Man and pretty much most independent country artists are based in Nashville so I always get screwed on tax.
 
So yeah, I caved and pre-ordered the U2 Songs of Surrender clear 2 LP set that is supposed to be released tomorrow.
Got shipping notification this afternoon! Label created. It will be a miracle if I get it by next Wednesday.
 

2 LP + 28 page Booklet

Stop Making Sense full concert for the first time ever on vinyl. 2 LP with a reproduction of the original booklet from the 1984 limited edition pressing and additional pages with never before seen photos. Includes brand new notes written by Chris, David, Jerry and Tina. The tracklist includes previously unreleased tracks “Cities” and “Big Business/I Zimbra.”

Ordered!
 
I live in Tennessee and a lot of these labels are based here so I pay taxes on a lot of stuff. That is why I rarely order from New West. Shipping and tax always kill the deal.
Subpop, saddle creek and 4ad have reasonable shipping costs. Doninos shipping costs are ok but their albums are a little bit expensive. Shipping from the secretly store can be really expensive and sometimes makes a album that is a good price cost a lot more than it should be.
 
Freaking finally.


Yep.


Yes. The full concert has a strong case for being the best live album ever. If anything, it contains an insane version of “Crosseyed and Painless,” which was omitted from the original, shortened LP.

I’ll have to ask myself whether I really need this (I already have the DVD of the movie, plus the original LP), but it’s very tempting. I might take a risk and wait for wider distribution… maybe even a friendly Target B2G1 discount?

Nice! I find myself playing that one a lot these days. The only TH-related LP that I still need is Stop Making Sense - I’m still holding out hope that they press the full show onto vinyl at some point!

I'm really surprised they haven't yet. I still throw in the 1999 CD release.


I got an early morning email from The Sound Of Vinyl that mentioned this release - knowing this was the UK site, I searched various places for a US release, and found it on Rhino's site and ordered it before their emails were sent out.

As someone that owns a copy of the original Limited edition version - I kinda wish they'd do something new for this new release.

I'll also have to get a new poster for the A24 release this summer - but I do like my British Quad for the first re-release of the movie.

@Twentytwo or anyone else - Last night at Billy Strings they had Turmoil & Tinfoil black press on sale. It was like $43 after taxes. Anyone need me to pick up a copy tonight or Saturday? I can send it out.

I know when we went to see him in November there was no way I was waiting in that merch line and I think they had that turquoise one. So big ups to you if anyone takes you up on it!

Part of me was hoping it was gonna be the turquoise when I opened it up, but I was just happy to have any!
