- Pearl Jam is shameless. They're releasing FOUR versions of their album "10" - a deluxe edition, a legacy edition, a vinyl edition and a SUPER deluxe edition. As if that weren't bad enough, it's all part of a 2 year re-release master plan to celebrate the band's 20th anniversary and soak their fans for more dough.
- KISS plans to hit the studio next year for a new album, despite what Gene Simmons told Billboard magazine last year. The ultimate douche bag said, ""There is nothing in me that wants to go in there and do new music. How are you going to deliver it? How are you going to get paid for it if people can just get it for free?" More importantly, who in the world cares about a new album from KISS?
- Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan says he's done with making albums. "There is no point. People don't even listen to it all. They put it on their iPod, they drag over the two singles and skip over the rest." News flash, Billy; people did that with CDs too.

that's just funny.
Although that looks like someone made up that page and had it resemble an actual page from that radio stations website. It kind of looks fake.
The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED

i can't wait till my SUPER DELUXE gets here though. evil little goat on vinyl, can spin it parties now........when i want everyone out, that is.

If they build it we will come, so if they make it we will buy it, who gives a shit if we are willing to fork the cash out who gives a flying fuck? They release 4 versions just for the fact people can choose a package they can afford and enjoy, and that is selling out...yes milking it a little I agree, but we lemming will buy it and love every moment of remastered/remixed tracks. It will be like hearing it for the first time again....money is nothing compared to the joy of pulling a new version of ten out of a 12 X 12 inch sleeve!
That doesn't make any sense.
Where does it call them sellouts? Was it on the broadcast or were you just calling them sellouts.
How would you be able to navigate through the site and get to that exact spot .... seems like a really random post, with no author.
I can't see a radio station jsut blasting away like that, something seems off here.
What is the "WBCN UNION" ... is that like a user page for BCN? Seems like these may be comments of someone NOT affiliated with the station.

Who gives a sh*t what they think, or say for that matter, PJ die-hard fans are over a WFNX anyway!
I used to get really annoyed with what the DJ's said..now I listen to Sirius..
agreed, although i'm more partial to AAF.

LoveBoatAdmiral nailed it. The quote is from "Half Assed News" by Hardy (one of the DJ's). I know Adam12 is a HUGE PJ fan and has talked about them often. The station in general (as do many of the stations in Boston) play tons of PJ. I wouldn't condemn the station because of one dudes opinion.
And the bottom line... the Super Deluxe Set... no one NEEDS it... some of us WANT it... but, none of us NEED it. It is OUR choice to spend the dollars on it or not, right? And if you believe that you NEED this set, then I would think you might want to re-evaluate your priorities.
Hail, Hail!!!
For starters... how about making their message board free rather than restricted to a few elite paying members?

You couldn't be more right. If you have a certain level of emotional intelligence, you certainly do not want to hear a snot-nosed DJ's "take" on anything. I never listen to the radio.

I gotta disagree with you on that. I hear a lot of PJ on BCN. They play lots of grunge and 90's music, sure, but a lot of the new bands and songs suck so they stick with what works. I tried FNX a couple of times and I hear a lot of whiny, emo shit. Sure, they play some good songs, but not enough for me to convert.
