    I got the Backspacer CD in the post on Saturday from Townsend, and there was a poster included. To be honest, it's a pretty grainy blow up of a live shot, but it's the thought that counts and I was just delighted to have the album early! I also ordered The Fixer CD & 7-inch single from them, which arrived in good time a while back, but with no additional goodies ;)

    Great service, although I had kind of hoped they might have the CD with the indie store packaging, rather than the cardboard sleeve which feels a bit cheap. I'm liking the cut-out cover though, with the expanded 'brain' image :)
    If I knew where it was, I would take you there...

    What were the 3 live tracks from the o2 that you gained as a result of pre-ordering from them?

    They had a promotional deal whereby if you pre-ordered the album from them you would get 3 live tracks from the o2 Arena concert. As per here:

    I got one poster from them too, it's a live shot - by the looks of it taken at Honolulu 02/12/2006

    I haven't found any O2 live tracks on it though :?
    Ive got the other links on there - for the wallpaper, concert downloads, band pics etc. etc. but there's only the normal Backspacer tracks on the CD.
    How did you find the 3 x O2 tracks ?

    If you pre-ordered they should have sent you an e-mail last week with a link to the three live downloads.
    If I knew where it was, I would take you there...

    Cheers for that :D

    I emailed them about it and they've just replied with the link that they should have sent me last week (but didn't). Haven't tried it yet but at least I've got it now!

    I got the poster too with the vinyl. Arrived on saturday so was really pleased with their service
    I assumed the poster was from a Hawaii gig as Stone has a necklace of flowers!
    Nice to have a extra surprise, will definately use Townsend again (instead of HMV!)
