rudeboydh Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 The Slackers launched a new Big Tunes campaign for all kinds of new music and a Wasted Days 2xLP repress, one record being the original CD versions, the other being the original vinyl version. Also, they have a new EP coming out, and a new 7". Awesome! https://bigtun.es/projects/index/7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
human fly Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 pretty steep prices, but i ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, but it sure beats trying to find an original press of Wasted Days. I did the colored Wasted Days and the new EP 12", so stoked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Bummed when I saw there wasn't a package for all three vinyl (colored 2xLP, EP and 45) but priced it out and it's only a dollar more than the same package with the black 2xLP. Ordered the shit out of it! A year ago I probably would have paid the same amount for a first pressThanks for the heads up rudeboy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
human fly Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I got a first press wasted days already so I guess it was harder for me to justify it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 Yeah, even if I had the first press, I would still buy this one though, because it's got the CD songs on vinyl for the first time which I think is pretty awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dem555 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I ended up spending $70 for a 2xLP and a 7" but I couldn't pass on Wasted Days rudeboydh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 I did 2 different rewards, Wasted Days colored, and the new EP LP. I think it came to 56 shipped or something. I'm just glad to finally have Wasted Days on vinyl! I've pretty much pledged for every Bigtunes campaign so far except for the new Irie Idea one.

dem555 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Am I the only who ordered the 7"? When I pledged it said 46 of 50 left but now it looks like only one has been ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 The 7" is cool and all, but I'd rather just have the whole EP on a 12". Just makes more sense to me I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
human fly Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Am I the only who ordered the 7"? When I pledged it said 46 of 50 left but now it looks like only one has been ordered. I think the 7'' comes with the $65 package. At least I thought it did when I ordered it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem555 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Yeah, it's in Jay's package. It's weird but it costs $2 more than if you buy the records separately, at least they should have put the colored Wasted Days in. I didn't buy the 12" EP just because it was too much money in one shot, I hope I can get it on their Europe tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem555 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 They added two new rewards. The Whatevski grab bag is pretty yummy, I wish I had all that money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomany45s Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 They just added an update: Dave and Vic have finished sequencing the "new" Wasted Days, which is a double album of all different tunes that appeared on the wholly-different original CD & Vinyl. Pending legal approval, that'll hit the press soon. The Bed is a Boat vinyl is mastered and ready to go to test press. Exciting stuff. Check out the picture below of the artwork. Very cool.The handcut 45s, and the limited edition CDs are READY to ship to those who ordered them outside of packages. The rest of the stuff is in the works and we'll update you soon. Thanks again for the support - everything's moving moving moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaboss241 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Has anyone received anything from this yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomany45s Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Nope. I wouldn't expect to see anything for at least a couple few more months if not longer. As of the last update mid-October they hadn't sent the records off to the plant yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxicity Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Me too. Patiently waiting for everything else I ordered though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Yeah, I hope this doesn't run into any delays. The David Hillyard record had 3 test pressings before it was good, so those are just shipping out now. Hope that doesn't happen to this as well.

mclz Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Hopefully I can find this online. I shouldn't have slept on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomany45s Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Yah, I'd rather wait and have it done right, ya know? When I ordered that Sammy Kay record, the download had a faint buzz over quite a few tracks(noticeable when wearing headphones) . I was hoping that was remedied on the vinyl, but my vinyl copy has the same buzz on the same tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomany45s Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Looks like there's another update...so maybe april/may?: - Wasted Days and the Vinyl EP are at the vinyl press and we'll keep you posted on the progress. - Individual orders for 45s and CDs have been shipped. For the DVD and the book, here's an update from the band: "I'm guessing around 2-3 weeks for the book. Then around 6 weeks for the DVD.” S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboydh Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 I saw that today. I'm hoping March for the vinyl hopefully, whoever they use has a pretty quick turnaround it seems. And anybody reading this should go pledge for the Deal's Gone Bad one too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicity Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ah, thanks for the DGB reminder! Just jumped on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
