Hopefully. Having a hell of a time registering for the verified fan thing. TM always a pain. 

I got through this morning but it wouldn't submit, now I'm in the queue. 

My original blue came yesterday, no. confetti, kinda bummed

I completely forgot I ordered this...

So far, yes

I think someone said that in the new vinyl releases FB group or somewhere else but failed to provide any sources.

Yeah I did some googling and all I could find was his original statement that they were pursuing legal action but no definitive ending to it.

Man I must really be out of the loop. I didn’t even hear about this. 

A couple years ago a girl went on Twitter saying that Bradley Walton was grooming her and soliciting her for nudes. All of her Twitter accounts have been deleted/disabled so it's kinda hard to dig into other than reports of it happening.

Gonna need proper details about what followed the allegations of sexual misconduct, grooming, and soliciting porn from a minor before I even consider listening to this band again. A denial from 2020 won't cut it.

I thought I read something a while back that it was investigated and found not to be true (the content of the allegations, not the allegations themselves)?

Yeah...ticket prices for here in FL completely turned me off...$195 each for decent seats. Regretfully pass for now. 

 

Shit I couldn't even get decent seats in Tampa; they were all 2-300 level

And rumor has it that there will be a 2023 stadium tour in support of the new album. 

 

I've also heard that she said she wouldn't headline until the re-recordings are done, so I'm taking the 'believe it when I see it' approach.

Something is happening on her TikTok tonight at midnight. Hopefully a single. 

Just the releasing of a title, I assume she's doing them one a day.  Track 13 is called Mastermind.

lmao the back jacket of each variant can be placed together to form a clock, so now you can buy a $50 set of add-on pieces to make an actual wall clock:

My wife saw it on tictok,  we bought it...

Nope. And I was just thinking about that when ordering that Target exclusive. We haven't heard a single note off any song from this new record. It's ridiculous the hold that T-Swizzle has on us...well, at least myself. 

Tay is like Kitchen Aid, she can stamp her name on anything and most people would buy it. 

^ so much this.

I wasn't around when Dead Format was a thing... but what's wrong with Discogs?

DF let you do your own formatting of things, it was less a database and more a collection manager. When it was around I always thought that Discogs was too complicated; but I don't think I could go back now.

there's a currently-happening lawsuit about how she supposedly stole the "players gonna play" / "haters gonna hate" line in "Shake It Off" from some other song (lmao), so I wouldn't expect 1989 (TV) to come out until that's finished. I believe a trial date is currently set for January.

Totally forgot about the suit, that makes perfect sense why it went on the back burner.

That applies to pretty much all award shows/ceremonies.  Not to sidetrack a T.Swift thread, I'm sure I'll get this eventually. Any word on any more of the Taylor's Versions re-releases?

There were some rumors a bit back that 1989 was imminent, but nothing official that I've heard.

Wow, record ships on release date instead of 9 months later like the last two 

I’ll believe it when I see it.

Nice! Been waiting for this one, grabbed the test pressing too.

Hard to watch one of my historically favorite songwriters descend like this the past several years. I listened to the album once through today and don't foresee ever needing to revisit it.

It's definitely different. 

This sounds almost exactly like what I'd expect Max Bemis to sound like in 2022.

• Would you like to be able to buy directly to the Artists (like Bandcamp but on a more interactive version)?
  I think this is how limitedrun started maybe, it's been forever. Would definitely be okay with that option. I think having some sort of notification built in would make it work even better. One could follow artists or labels and then get alerts when POs go up. Hell, I'd almost be into a pull list style setup like they do with comics.

I don't remember purchasing on limited run other than being able to mark your collection for sale or not, but if we could have limited run, with discogs general database but easier to find things, maybe some social elements, I'd be down.

No plans to repress the self-titled.

That means Air for Free is still on the table though right? 

Awesome! 

Got a two lefts, now we just need a self titled and air for free.

Thanks! Preordered as well. Curious that the release date is listed as August 26 though.

Yeah, not sure about that unless it's a typo or placeholder. 

I pre-ordered mine on https://www.endofanear.com/
