Wow. I am one of the lucky ones I guess. Received 10C email at 11:21am via iPhone (although sent to my inbox at 11:08), immediately purchased, order conformation email at 11:24am and now sold out. Completely insane. 1000 orders in less than 30 minutes!! Right place at the right time .... Again! Now how about a 5000 numbered RSD clear vinyl Benaroya Hall 4LP box set!!! ,

Yea, you were LUCKY as i didn't get the e-mail until 12:15(EDT)!!

So, it looks like i had a WHOLE 12 minutes to purchase>LOL!!!

I have not been around here much often (especially compared to the past!)

I just happened to sign in minutes after the sale. Very lucky this time around.

It's sad that this band has become all about merchandising now. "Taxing the cult".

How so? 2000 people here are perfectly happy. If you don't want it don't buy it, but this is far from "sad". It's vinyl. Vinyl is awesome to a lot of people. And the band isn't all about merchandising now. Haven't you seen any shows lately? They're fucking awesome. Also, there is this new album I think....

what i saw at wrigley has soured me big time.

Wrigley merch was an EPIC disaster.

the whole wrigley experience has made me less enthused about the band in general.

Huh. Interesting. Why? Because of a storm?
If you feel like this but waited in the merch lines anyway, no one's fault but your own probably.... I personally didn't wait in any merch line there at all and had a blast (and still got one poster).

the rain delay was not what bothered me.

although they SHOULD have cancelled the show and came back later.

So the rain delay WAS what bothered you....
Cancelled and come back later?? That's crazy talk. You don't reschedule something like that. If they'd cancelled it would have just been dead in the water.
Sucks to be you if you hated. I fucking loved by Wrigley experience! And had so much fun NOT waiting in stupid merch line ups (sorry, but all of you who waited in those lines in that heat or fucking out of your minds, lol).

i live in Chicago. taking a 2nd night off work in august or September would have been no big deal for me.i didnt think it was safe being out there trying to get a rock show on.

what bothered me about the show, or "experience" was assholes ARGUING with the merch booth(on the FIELD, mind you) to sell them stuff as a storm had just posponed the show. or the fact that there was a merch line at all while the show started.
and then the same stand, once re-opened after the rain delay, was SWARMED by guys trying to gobble whatever was left.

So, did you go home during the weather delay since you didn't feel safe being out there?

It's becoming more and more frustrating being a fan anymore I just received the email and as soon as I got it I tried to order and it sold out . Amazing my email has been fine all day and yet I received mine hours after this presage started great to see my hard earned money paying to b in this club is going to good use feels like the band is becoming more and more of a cash grab kinda band just makes it easier to stay away from the site all together I guess the next email we get will b that the band is selling washers and dryers

I don't think I will be losing sleep over not getting this record. There are 13 other LP versions of the regular LP and 4 other redux packages and that is not including represses of the redux etc. I have an original US, a UK picture disc and the deluxe redux set, I struggle to justify having all of these. I think the fact that it sold out so quick shows that lots of people think that PJ fans are a bunch of mugs and will pay stupid prices on the secondary market, most of these Newbury releases have been taking around a week or longer to sell out which seems fine.

Definitely won't lost sleep over this, never really do. Half of me is always happy to not feed the beast, so to speak.

Yeah, the merch situation was lame. I would never carry that into how I feel about PJ's music though. Anyway, easy for you to say it should have been rescheduled (not that they could have got that done). But there were thousands upon thousands who came in for that show. I flew in from Vancouver. Other people came from Europe and Asia! The band knew tons and tons of folks had traveled in, and mentioned it, so that's why cancelling wasn't an option, aside from the fact that it's not that easy to reschedule a show like that. It was in the works for almost a YEAR. They had a massive marketing campaign behind it. No fucking way were they going to cancel and reschedule that show.

Would have much rather had a Vault release or something similar. Something thats new to us. ...I have 5-6 different versions of TEN as it is (original vinyl, boxset, cassette, basketball, etc) It wouldn't be something I would actually listen to anyway. Seems like a Flippers gift to me.

Do you think Coke bottles are brown because there is a brown liquid in it?

Where I come from Coke bottles are clear glass I think (not that I would ever buy soda in a glass bottle in any case). I thought maybe they varied, and were maybe brownish. Didn't know they came in green!

Well, I found out about it three hours after it sold out. ):
