For another data point... I pre-ordered on Amazon the first day it was available. I received prompt to approve the order on May 23, which I did. My order was cancelled on June 2. If the book is recalled to redo it with the guitar solos then it will be worth it, but somehow I don't think that's the reason.
If the book is recalled to redo it with the guitar solos...
ah, foggedabout it. Not to mention, some people already received it, so Amazon should re-ship the re-worked product to them? No, the book is done, incomplete as it is. Whatever is the reason of the delay, is not the solos.
Could be some other quality issue, like the binding / glue not holding the pages properly or something like that. They had printed and shipped some to Amazon, but halted further shipments before they can re-print.
Hal Leonard said the book was delayed because of legal issues on Pearl Jam's end... Said looks like release could be July... Legal issues could be anything... publishing, contract with Hal Leanard, who knows... sure it will get figured out but I agree, book is most likely done as is... (no solos). Happy to have anything at this point!
Or maybe 10c wanted exclusivity for a period of time. Clearly they were not going to be selling many of these through 10c with the markup and crazy shipping costs.

Wow, been a few weeks since I checked in here, had no idea how lucky my brother and I got. The book seems complete - I wonder why they delayed it? Sorry to you all who got cancelled, especially my CDN bros and sisters who now are going to have to pay triple after subsidizing 10C international shipping
for the lucky ones outthere, how is the book? any surprise in tuning or guitar parts? ps: ordered mine on amazon.it on 01/07 but any news since then...
Price went down 11 cents over @ Amazon Canada to $75.25. Wondering what's the hold up, as few copies were shipped out from Amazon Canada few months back.
Hopefully next month from what I was told by CS at an online retailer... Band is fixing a "problem" and it will be a "good month" before it is ready to ship...
I contacted Hal Leonard a few weeks ago and asked what the reason was for the delay and how long it would last. I was told "The unfortunate death of Chris Cornell and media surrounding it has caused the band to pause and review all of their current projects." I pointed out that the delay was announced well before his death, but they never responded back to me. I'm hoping they just don't want to admit that they screwed up royally by not including the solos, and they are now working to add those.
Mike might be upset(rightfully so) that his career work has been omitted from the book. Imagine an artist of 25 years and their creative work was completely left out. Totally disrespectful and half assed of the publisher in charge of the project.
