i thought the soundcheck song was considered public domain/listenable.

the determination of this will decide whether i'm still in or not.

Yeah, the hair plugs aren't obvious at all.

Played live. Barely audible. Doesn't count. You're still in the club.

You can barely see me with my camouflage shirt.

The only track any of you should be listening to is MYM. The rest are unofficial bootleg recordings.

MYM IS the only one I'm listening to. But I did listen to (half of) the soundcheck, LB, and FD once. But they don't count against club status.

But, yeah. Mind Your Manners is the only one I spin repeatedly.

Wait. Which of these is allowed, or is it a combination of both?

Im not actively listening to anything, but i have listened to them all a few times

this. although apparently the force is strong w/ LMS.

The only leak I'm banning myself from is the actual album itself. Unofficially released studio tracks. If that's OK with everyone. If something live goes on Youtube, I'm on it like a car bonnet.

The barely audible thing is about this soundcheck thing specifically. But Sarge said earlier that played live is fair game. I mean we never voted on it or anything, but that sounds fair to me. Because live versions can be different. And technically they aren't "leaked."

I think that's fair. I, however, will not listen to anything else until the album is out. Not even an officially released single. I mean, if I hear it on the radio or something I won't freak out. But I'm not going to go looking for it either. Same with live tracks.

At list point I want to go in as clean as possible.

I can't wait to read the discussions on whether you can listen to a leaked album listening party as it A) is technically a performance because BoB pressed play on an instrument, B) was official as the venue has to pay music rights for any music performance including recorded music and C) there is audience noise.

Fuck it guys I admire your stance as I'll be listening to whatever shitpile turns up first. I'm like a priest how commands the high road whilst licking strippers toes.

Both LB and FD days are really a bit of a grey area. However, if any of one us were at the concert - should they be penalised?

I'm happy to let those ones be counted as offical release, because PJ played them to a buttload of people in a public arena. That's not really a leak, because they want people to hear it.

The soundcheck song is a hard one. But, considering:

A) We don't even know if it's PJ.
2) We don't even know if it's PJ playing a song from LB.
D) It's just loud, rhythmic, groovy noise - it could've just been a jam.
IX) If it's legit, they played it really fucking loud so surely they knew people would hear/record it.

It's like showing someone a blurry, shitty photo of a lightbulb and trying to tell them it's a flying saucer. I'm willing to let it slide.

I'm really just trying to avoid leaked studio recordings because these ruined past albums for me (i.e. Avocado).

yeah, this.

I'm feeling pretty much like a virgin still when it comes to my flirtation with the big fat lightning bolt....

MYM - my best guess is that I've listened to this less than 10 times
LB - one listen (on shitty speakers)
FD - one listen (ditto)
Soundcheck song - 0 listens (that's leaked material if you ask me)
2nd single - I will listen but same as MYM, limited exposure

We probably all have various definitions of what constitutes the no leak club but what matters most is not listening to a leak of the official album... So I would say harmles's definition will suffice.
