    I realized that it's nearly Christmas and I'm stretched too thin at Christmas time to be buying concert tickets. I hate when bands sell their tix at this time of year.

    Got floor Tix for the Ottawa show. I did the VIP Meet/Greet last tour for Transmission. Main reason for doing that was getting the coffee table Transmission book, and autographed to boot. Not sure why they did not sell or release these books. They are great!! Only given to the VIP guests.

    YES !! Beautiful hard bound book with photos and stories from the transmission era. Ill try to add a few photos here in a bit. Can only guess how many were made, maybe between 250 - 350

    like I said, only VIP's got one and most vip's had them signed by the band during the meet/greet.

    I got Tea Party'd out back in the early 00's, but I saw them about 2 years ago and they were really good.   As a result we bought tickets for the upcoming show here in Victoria.  A show at a small bar on a Saturday.... pretty sweet :)

    Awesome! Thanks for the heads up - have they released any Splendor Solis demos before?  I don't recall ever hearing any.

    Capital Ballroom does have a better layout and is bigger.  Distrikt is a bit better since the dug a pit for in front of the stage.. so at least you can see over some people.   It was awful when the bar was call Legends the stage was barely off the floor (due to the low ceiling).  You couldn't see the band what was playing unless you were right at the front. 

    Plus Distrikt is a night club.  Hence why the double dip on weekends.  Early concert, kick everyone out, bar night :(

    they posted these a few weeks ago on their youtube channel I think to spark some interest in the upcoming now-released single, and I guess they decided to release them. which is awesome. 

    But I don't recall them ever releasing any SS demos before, no.

    Awesome, thanks man. Looking forward to that vinyl too, the prices for the OP on discogs and ebay are outrageous.

    There has been a pre-order for SS on amazon.ca for a little while now. I think release date said December 21st.

    Yes I posted 4 photos of the inside

    Im going to post another of the front with signatures in a minute. Not sure why you cant see them ??

  • willbarclaywillbarclay Ottawa, Canada Posts: 3,298

    Here is the front of the Transmission Book signed by the band

  • I couldn't see the earlier pic either but that one works for me. Thanks for the heads up on the Amazon preorder, looks like Santa will be making a pit stop on the way to the States for me.

    I paid like $150 for SS vinyl like 5 years ago.  Oh well.  Why I don’t buy expensive records anymore, they all get repressed eventually

    If I'd seen it that low recently I would have snagged it. Same thing happened with EoT though. I bought an original and 4 months later they announced the repress.

    HughFreakingDillon Here are the original photos I posted that you couldn't see (below).

    This book is going to be very scarce. There's a guy who's been trying to buy it from me for a while now.

    Offering $400 as he has never seen the book come up anywhere. That's a good chunk of change but I just cant let it go

    I’m OK with it cause the album was such an iconic part of my youth like Ten and Vs, so it’s kinda nostalgic owning the original.

    And now a days, it’s like two tanks of gas anyway.
