    I can GUARANTEE beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is exactly what most suspect it is. A boxed version of their singles up through Riot Act and absolutely no "Avocado" tracks whatsoever.

    They might throw us a bone or two (maybe tacking I've Got a Feeling onto the Alive single) but I imagine it'll be like Jeff Buckley's Grace EPs boxset. A nice collection for those that don't have it, but otherwise pretty worthless.

    Kat: YES! Those stalke... I mean fanatics were able to find some obscure reference to the new Singles project!

    Sea: We knew this day would come. We just didn't expect it this early!

    Santos: I told you guys that throwing a Green Hoodie at the men would not be enough to throw them off the trail!

    Kat: You are right. I expected them to be doing their holiday shopping and not scouring the net the way only they are capable of. Hmmm... Do you think we should?!?

    Santos: Do we have any other choice?

    Sea: No! Now the only question is, do we put more towels up... or do we go with the Koozie???

    Kat: Let's not lose ourselves here, gang. I am not ready to play the Koozie Trump Card just yet. Santos, you put up another 50 towels, I will send out a Little Birdie announcement, and Sea, you run some interference with the Deep contest.

    Sea: That's perfect! That should buy us a couple more days to put together something about the aforementioned Operation Singles.

    Santos: Sounds like a plan! Let's rock and roll!

    In most cases, when an artist leaves a label, the label is allowed to release a greatest hits album, as well as 1 additional product of rarities, unreleased songs, etc.

    They often do this without the band's input....that may be why there has been lack of info from the band.

    What was Lost Dogs and Rearviewmirror then?

    good point.....both were released after Binaural, so I wonder if those were released with the bands blessing before they opted out of their deal?

    Howsabout we just wait and see what this is before we thumb our collective noses at The Man. Not that anyone would jump the gun around here...I'm just sayin'.

    Personally I welcome the release with some excitement, any PJ release is something well worth looking forward to.

    you gonna get it?

    personally i'd prefer that the set was vinyl's. i've got all the cd singles so it's a bit of a conundrum for a pj-geek collector such as myself

    More than likely if it is a singles collection I will get it. I don't have any singles except Man Of The Hour. It will be expensive though.

    A boxset of singles on 45s would be clutch..........

    Both were in their contract, IIRC.

    your post even made it's way to the RM board!


    and I'm absolutely not one inch excited about this news becasue it's just going to be be some stupid compilation with nothing new as many have pointed.
    hell, I don't even own RVM so I'm sure not going to bother with this.

    Let's hope so! It was clearly meant in fun!
    For those who scoff at "Jamily" in my name... 9 years ago, when my first daughter was born there were jokes about whether my priority would be my family or PJ. I smiled and quipped "I am a JamilyMan." What was a family joke became a hated term among jammers. Didn't see that one coming!

    completely different version. The LD version was recorded for 10 w/ Dave K. on drums and then reworked vocally in 2003. The single version (and a far better version it is) was recorded during the Vs. sessions w/ Dave A. on drums.

    Single version is horrible, Lost Dogs version is a million times better.
