Can someone help me clarify what will be included in the Target release? I've heard so many things I have no idea whats true and what is not. Thanks for any help you can give me!

    I am as confused as you are. Here is what the Seattle PI says

    Target, which is the exclusive retailer of Backspacer, will be offering quite a few ways to get your hands on the album. First there is the stand alone album, which you can buy on CD. Then there is the special edition CD set at that is being sold at select Target stores nationwide. This set includes the Backspacer disc and a code that enables owners of the special edition to download the entire album for the video games Rock Band or Rock Band 2.

    Target is also offering an exclusive Backspacer t-shirt that will feature album artwork from Tom Tomorrow (the guy who did Backspacer's album art). The shirt is a limited edition deal and all proceeds from sales of the shirt will go to Feeding America, a domestic hunger-relief charity.

    I'm willing to bet if you call your local Target someone will be able to tell you.

    I wonder why the target backspacer has more goodies- like free downloads of lives shows and costs less than TenClub price...any thoughts?

    One quick question, will all versions of the cd, including the ten club preorder have access to the 2 bootlegs?

    thanks again!

    My thought is that is a tradeoff they made to get Target to allow them to sell the record through their website and through the independent music stores. A little pot sweetener for Target to give them some exclusivity not available through other channels.

    is the vault going to be activated on the 20th for our ten club cds?
  • Evolution6579Evolution6579 Posts: 624
    From what I can surmise, ALL the CDs are linked to a new technology called E-Bridge that, once the CD is in your Mac/PC, allows you to preview the 11 concerts and then pick your 2 favs to download and will also allow 10C to update content available to the buyer on a special website. As far as "extras" go, the edition with the Rock Band DLC costs more so it is not really an extra. The shirts are $20 and sold separately.

    just curious, b/c in this and other threads right now we're all questioning this--where did you hear this?
