    Can someone give me info on their vinyl? I have ...Like Clockwork, because it is phenomenal. I have all their other albums digitally, but I have been hesitant to grab some other vinyl. I know some are readily available and some are not, but I've seen/heard some things about subpar pressings, am I correct?

    Which are quality, which are not? 
    For the most part most of Queens vinyl is ace. 

    Couple of things to look out for:

    Songs for the Deaf is out of print and super rare. Lots of bootlegs out there.

    Rated R (X) was first re-issued in a terrible sounding pressing. Very quiet, no dynamics. This version had the promo sticker printed on the top left corner of the jacket itself with rounded corners. Stay away from it. The newer corrected copy has a square edged sticker on the shrink wrap, not printed on the actual jacket. It sounds noticeably better. 

    Can't go wrong with ST, Lullabies, Era Vulgaris or like Clockwork 
    Perfect, thank you very much. I think the Rated R/X was the thing I kept hearing which made me quite nervous. I appreciate the info!

    I don't remember seeing this deluxe option when I purchased this a few weeks ago?  When did they start offering this?

    Sumbitch...  I ordered from Matador direct so maybe that's why I didn't see it?

    I'm a sucker for deluxe boxes like they are offering.

    Anybody want to buy my LP deluxe package so I can buy the ultimate deluxe package?

    Please?

    I made the same mistake...... I'm kicking myself as for just a few bucks more I could have had the bundle w/ the deluxe vinyl, shirt and the MP3 download from the QOTSA store.


    I'm considering canceling my order w/ Matador & ordering the bundle w/ QOTSA. I would like to think that wouldn't affect the tickets I bought in the presale, but IDK.

    Mine were mailed, but I chose that option. I'm sure yours are in your Ticketmaster account so you can print them. Check that before you rely on the honor system.

    Phew!  Disaster averted!  It's like a free for all with all that clicking, I even bought insurance by accident.  Fortunately an email was able to cancel it for me.  Shit I've never seen them live so I'm going...who needs insurance??

    That sounds pretty awesome! Haha, yesterday they posted this on facebook or somewhere, but there was no audio for some reason. All the comments were basically along the lines of "thanks for nothing" and "would it kill them to add audio???" It gave me a bit of a chuckle. Glad to see it really was a mistake and that they didn't actually just put a teaser video with no sound out there, lol.
