How in the world will you get it by tomorrow? It's only the 10th? Europe and Australia were getting it by the 11th but that's the earliest I heard of it being available anywhere?

Time zones, how do they work?

enjoy it! it may be the last time..


...not saying you're gonna die or anything, but who knows if we ever get another album from them

Record stores are dying out.

That's true, man. I've seen so many good ones go out of business over the years. There used to be a great little one I was a regular at, and they were always a few dollars that the big stores, but I was always happy to support them. They would often sell me new release albums, prior to launch, as soon as they go them in stock (in a very sneaky, under the counter way).

Oh... maybe that has something to do why they closed down?

They were always knowledgeable about music, and would happily banter with me about bands/albums/etc. They had time for their customers. At JB, you're lucky if you even get a smile.

So you're going to be hoping no one can tell you're jerking off underneath your sportcoat while you sit through Midnight Mass?

Well that would be a sin, brother. But, my wife does like to "rest" her head on my lap, under my sports coat. Bless her, if she falls asleep she sometimes gets night terrors where she makes funny slurping/gagging sounds, it's quite bizarre.

Damn straight, it's all about giving.

I love the fact that a thread I started as a set up to a rickroll has now reached 100 pages.

This post gave me an unbridled joy. I may need to clean up.

Here have a towel, man.

When do you get your physical copy?

He's harmless, he gets physical copy whenever he damn well pleases, son.

It's out on the 14th here. Amazon tells me it'll be here on the day of release, but I'm sceptical.

Thanks for creating our safehaven.

Got my shipping confirmation today on the LP. No way it's going to make it to Montreal within 5 days. I"m thinking of going with a FLAC first listen.

Still no confirmation for me, maybe tomorrow

I've sometimes ordered things online, and have received the actual product before the confirmation. Either way, I hope it gets to you by Friday.

I'm half worried that in the next 2-3 days I'll go to answer the doorbell, and when I open it Ed is just gonna yell "LIGHTNING BOLT!" kick me in the nuts, and then run off laughing as he jumps into a Camaro being driven by Tim Bierman and blaring Getaway. And I'll never actually get my copy of the record.

Does anyone else harbor this fear?

I'm actually afraid it may be the best possible outcome based on things I've read/heard.

When somebody DOES get the hard copy version, if they uploaded the artwork/liner notes, that would mean I could go ahead and download the ever-loving shit out of this thing, so that would be nice.
