    :thumbup: This is what I'm talking about :)

    I don't care for a pretty cover. I just would love to spin this baby. Make it as simple as possible, give the proceeds to a charity.. Thank you for the consideration, PJ :wave:

    I saw one today for the very first time with my own eyes and I'm still stoked :shock: :oops: How can you get so excited about a piece of wax? :lol:
    Well, I sat down in awe and heard the first sounds of Of the Girl coming out of the speakers. And it was quite the magical moment. If I don't win the lottery I don't really see me ever owning this album on vinyl. So my wish still stands - please, PJ, consider re-issuing this most gorgeous, wonderful and magical piece of music for the vinyl lovers who are in it to spin it and don't have lots of cash on the side (partly because they are trying to fund following you around the country :shifty: )

    Thanks for your consideration :wave:

    So I didn't get the singles box, because I probably wouldn't play them and for that, I didn't want to pay 55 bucks...

    I would, however, pay up to 100 bucks for a re-issue of the Benaroya Hall show vinyl. I know I am not the only one out there. I know people want this to spin it as much as I do. The collector's value of the first edition wouldn't be touched by this. People who already have it but keep it sealed would probably buy a reissue to be able to spin it...

    Please, do it for the fans whom you lured into a love affair with vinyl :shifty: :wave: Thank you.

    You know what... fuck it! In for a penny, in for a pound as they say...

    I would like to ***officially*** raise a request for the PEARL JAM BENAROYA HALL SEVENS box set to be released!

    That's right people, let's have a 12x 7-inch single box of the Benny gig. 24 songs, 12 lovely pieces of vinyl with 1 song per side. You know it makes sense!

    And I want coloured vinyl too dammit!

    Yes, please restock Benny before restocking Sevens! At least people will actually spin Benny more than once for the novelty.

    I keep thinking about this limited stuff and it is boggling my mind ...

    Would people be happy with a "tiered" system, I wonder. I pre-ordered a Mark Lanegan LP the other day. It was available in several different versions, as was the newest qotsa LP too!

    There was a regular, black vinyl for 30 bucks, 150 pieces of a yellow wax version for 36 dollars, and a red version for registered users of the ordering website. I think this system would be a cool idea for PJ too, and haven't they done it with the PJ20 dvd too? Weren't there two different versions available?

    Why not please everybody - the collectors who fear the collector's buzz gets killed by the reissue of the Benny - by producing a special, limited collector's edition in a different colour and with different packaging, and the simple folks who crave to hear this beauty on vinyl, but don't care for a special packaging and colour with a regular version?

    I don't want to have this for the "specialty" factor, I want to listen to it on vinyl. All the new music that I buy is on vinyl. Vinyl is en vogue again. PJ knows the appeal of the medium and even supports it...

    We have set up a jar in our kitchen now, our "Benny fund". We are trying to put money away to be able to afford one one day. But it will take forever, and once we have the money, we might need it for something urgent and necessary...

    A little over 200 bucks was the most I have spent on an album so far. I saved money for this and I cherish it. But as a normal person, an amount like this is almost the utmost to spend on something like this. 800, 900, 1500, or even 2000 dollars is so far out of reach that life and bills will most certainly always get in my way. I don't think that musicians really intend their music to be that exclusive. Or do they?

    Seeing how Lost Dogs is starting to explode with crazy trade offers for Bennys, I give this a nice little bump.

    Come on, PJ. Make a reissue happen. End the frenzy and greed. Make this album available on vinyl for the normal vinyl lover ... In a regular, unadorned, simple black release. Make it appealing to the music and vinyl fans, not the collectors. Make it for order, leave a time window of a week or so to order and then produce as many as have been ordered.

    You have done it with Lightning Bolt - there is the collector's edition with Sevens and the regular release. People who want to spin their music on the turntable are happy (well, at least with the replacement vinyl :lol: ) and people who like to look at their vinyl in its sealing on the shelf knowing that they got something valuable are happy too.

    Happy ending :D

    Re-issue all the vinyls. I think more people would listen to PJ on vinyl if it wasn't so scarce. Some are afraid to play it because they might scratch it and it costs a fortune to replace. Viva la vinyl!!!

    :thumbup: We have a new stereo and super cool speakers, I would love to spin that album on the new set up.

    Also, this thread is almost two years old now. I'm not getting tired of bumping it, but I would love to see some development on the cause one day :shifty: :P

    But I am thankful that I'm going to see them live in a couple of days :)

    Happy Thanksgiving, everybody :wave:
