I hear your point, I originally found this place searching for punk records. But It's hard to swallow that some middle of the road 90's bands are the issue when the front page is full of The Frozen Soundtrack, Lion King Picture Discs and Coldplay's new record. Like a poster said above, its hard to claim this is a punk rock board when we have a 100 page Taylor Swift thread. I just consider this a Vinyl message board that leans punk. 

I gave up my listening room to make a playroom for my daughter and decided to stuff my music gear in a small office upstairs until we decide to finish the basement. The rooms only 10 x 11 but should hold me over for a couple years.

Everything I like is awesome and everything else sucks. 

Wow! O_o did not know that, good for them *thumbs up*

I disagree with that.  Thanks to this board, I've discovered and expanded my musical tastes more than I ever would have had I been on just a band specific messageboard.  This forum is vinylcollective and I don't think it really slants one way (metal vs. punk vs. pop) over another. i'd like to think it is all encompassing and welcoming to any and all music tastes.
 
With regards to Blues Traveler, it's not like they are making 40000 copies.  1 release was a promo only domestic release, 2 of the releases haven't even been on vinyl before (per Discogs), with another being only available overseas.  I am sure there are more than 1000 people who see Blues Traveler at shows that might pick this up for nostalgia sake (maybe a couple met at a HORDE show...who knows).  I don't think this is milking fans or anything, it is giving legacy Blues Travelers fans to add to their vinyl collection and a chance for those who may want to discover their music an opportunity to do so.

Are all these people bashing this the same people who go crazy for fall out boy and good charlotte?

Made quite a few changes to my setup recently. Added an Onkyo A-9050 Integrated Amplifier and a Pair of Zu Audio Omen DW speakers.

My tracking number was finally updated this morning, it now says processed through sort facility in San Diego.

Yeah, seems like a long time to sit on it without shipping it. You never know with USPS, I find their tracking info very untrustworthy, it rarely seems to be right.

I got shipping notification 5 days ago and the tracking info still just says "shipping details received" and has no location data at all.

I"ll buy the boxset for S/T and Blue, but it may be a deal breaker if Blue doesn't have the original lyrics for Slow Motion, that semi instrumental/censored version they put out was nonsense.

Dear god, I hope they have the sense to put in the proper version. I'd completely nerd out for the full version of Red Summer Sun to be included as well, but that's highly unlikely.

just need an album to go with sum 41 and im good

This is my record area for now, have a baby on the way and this is turning into a playroom, but for now it's records.

Really love this band, anybody that likes Arcade Fire and/or indie rock (especially orchestral based) should really check them out.
 
In the details of the Kickstarter page it says White Lighter will be a Special Edition Gatefold LP on White Vinyl with Red/Yellow Splatter, which should match the cover art nicely. I assume the regular/retail version will be on standard black vinyl, but don't know that for certain.
 
I also missed out on Hunger & Thirst on vinyl, which made me happy/excited to see this statement at the bottom of Tender Loving Empire's news post in May about Typhoon leaving TLE for Roll Call Records:
 
"TLE will be reissuing 180 gram colored vinyl editions of Typhoon’s Hunger & Thirst (on red vinyl) as well as A New Kind of House (on chocolate brown vinyl) in the very near future."

I got my notice on Tuesday and tracking said it will be delivered Friday. I live 30 minutes from their warehouse though, don't know if that would make a difference.

Got this from AiR: 
 
 
"We will notify customers as soon as we know when the replacements will be ready to ship."
 
Glad they totally ignored my question/point about Transatlanticism being 33 rpm instead of 45...
