Wouldn't be surprised...leave it to VMP to get a guy who doesn't even like the band to write some liner notes for a $450 box set hahLiner notes by Dave Longstreth from Dirty Projectors
Didn't Jake Longstreth say that Dave doesn't like the Dead on a Time Crisis episode?
Hey-- it does have an exclusive facebook group though!!The streaming party hosted by VMP staff, who have proven they know so much about the Dead. The AMA's could be cool, but I am sure anything particularly juicy will be made public knowledge soon enough
$56 an album. $32 a record.
This happens with every VMP release. Site/release goes live 15min or so before it's announced. They will likely send an email at 5PM or later tonight. Don't worry about this selling out anytime soon if you plan to buy it. Wait for that discount hah.Weird the link is live without sending a discount code
Normally, I am a bowl half full kind of guy, but from what I read in the standard and see from some of the staff on twitter, I imagine Dave will have to be leading that conversation if we are to get anything interesting from the conversation.Hey-- it does have an exclusive facebook group though!!

I was just bein sarcastic. They hyped the "private community" thing with the Blue Note box and it was one of the most miserable things I have seen on the internet. It was people attacking anybody who didn't like the pressings or had issues with customer service and one guy who kept posting CD covers of Blue Note albums and trying to pretend they were vinyl hah.Normally, I am a bowl half full kind of guy, but from what I read in the standard and see from some of the staff on twitter, I imagine Dave will have to be leading that conversation if we are to get anything interesting from the conversation.
I just got 2 emails. Codes are good for 24 hours only for $50 off. I was referring more to how they announce store exclusives now. You get the email after it goes live on the site.Normally there's an anouncement email and a place to sign up for the link to go live a few days in advanced along with the discount code in advance.
The website says it. 7500 copies. Someone else here calculated that VMP thinks they will sell $3,000,000+ in a Dead box set.Did the email indicate the number being pressed?
