Pre-Order Thread

As someone who exists in the world of "underground" hip-hop records being pressed in such limited quantities and then demanding crazy second hand prices I'm so thankful for 5 year represses. Something like Care for Me by Saba had a 3 year repress and it's how I was able to snag it for a normal price. Freddie by Freddie Gibbs just had a 5 year repress and now I own that too. I totally understand how a 5 year repress sounds ridiculous though.

True, but we're generally buying super limited pressings that sell out in seconds. Having a normal widely available variant still in print and doing that feels a little different. Releasing the deluxe variant right after getting everyone to throw down on the standard is also irksome
 

Still love this album
The 15th anniversary edition of this is still available. I just bought it a few weeks ago from Merchbar.

It's sort of on wax already isn’t it? They did the b-sides on rsd a few years ago.

Yeah, I have this plus the MoFi Blue album so I am probably good but I also have this…
the 4xLP version of Pinkerton and am kind of surprised that they didn’t already release the deluxe blue album around the same time.

Yeah I have the mofi blue and the rsd as well. Only have the vmp of Pinkerton (the release that made me sign up)

Yeah, I debated seeking out a MoFi plate of Pinkerton but the deluxe LP pressings sounds pretty good and with bonus material on the Pinkerton and that RSD disc it gives me all the b-side, non-album cuts I need from Weezer on wax. I would like to eventually maybe pick up the green album and Malidroit but for me those are less essentials than the blue album/pinkeron era b-sides.
 
If it's a vinyl press of the Deluxe Edition CD from back in the day, that sounds righteous.

I saw the 20th Anniversary set at Riot Fest back in 2014. The band did a hits set, then left the stage and returned in Blue Album cover attire to play through the record. It was glorious.

An old coworker asked me if I would go to see Weezer if they did a just Blue album tour and I said, "No I...I was there..." Which is maybe the most hipster thing I've ever said.
