This is what will happen with the Philly boots...
Listen up people, this is exactly how the Philly bootlegs release is going to go down. I promise that if you follow these simple steps you will get through this...
1. People will continue to bitch and moan every day until a release date is announced
2. The boots will go on sale - CD/DVD/blu-ray/box set, who cares as long as they get released?!? - then 5 seconds later the site will crash beause everybody just has to get their order in before everybody else on the very second they go on sale. Cue more bitching followed by everyone posting a copy of their confirmation email a few minutes later
3. People will then bitch EVERY SINGLE DAY about how long it's taking for the boots to be delivered until they finally arrive
4. European fans will then spend another couple of weeks waiting (and bitching about the wait)
5. Dimitris will carry on trying to comfort and reassure people but it's a losing battle my friend!
6. UK fans will then get stung for a ridiculous import charge (if 2x London boots incured an £11 charge, how much extra will we have to pay for a box set?!?)
7. When everybody has, eventually, received their Philly goodness (probably in January) we can all then carry on with our normal daily lives... In other words, we can get back to the really important stuff like spreading rumours of a 2010 tour/Soundgarden reunion/pics where Boom's dad looks hot etc
Please note that this is not in any way intended to be a negative post (I will almost certainly be following steps 3, 4, 6 and 7 myself!) I just wanted to help you guys plan out the next few weeks of your lives
peace

This seems to speak from a verrrrry long experience here on the board..... :PYou can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets,
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself0 -

LOL!!!
It's so true.... except for the last step, that will also include bitching about how the bootlegs don't sound as good as the 2000 boots, or the 2003, or the 2006, or even the 2008, depending on the person
Now, back to waiting... :twisted:Makes me ache, makes me shake...
...is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?0 -
