synapsistapped Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Looks like there isn't a difference in the RSD release and this one either: https://twitter.com/dfarecords/status/461946623422365697 Yeah, as an owner of the RSD box, the only logical difference between the two would be the "RSD Exclusive" sticker on the shrink wrap. Other than that, they should be exactly identical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yep same as RSD not sure where/why people started rumors the rest would be cheaper.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchflowers Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 fwiw.. I don't know if they're going to put more up in store but there are only 20 copies left if anyone is waiting. But perhaps they are just selling them in batches.. There were 42 in stock about 30-40 mins ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yep same as RSD not sure where/why people started rumors the rest would be cheaper.... Good to see they will be priced about the same. It really didn't make sense that the regular edition would be the exact same product at 1/2 the RSD MSRP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But perhaps they are just selling them in batches.. They didn't press this release. What they're getting is likely what has been allocated to them by the distributors. Not uncommon for them to sell copies of distribution items in their webstore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 bought! with my surplus paypal balance this didn't hurt too bad. think it'll be worth it. It really is a priceless release. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Everything about the release is top quality. Its not only well manufactured, its a well made record. Not to mention the content is the fucking best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Everything about the release is top quality. Its not only well manufactured, its a well made record. Not to mention the content is the fucking best. The side that starts w/ Sound Of Silver is about as ridiculous as it gets. The whole time I'm listening to that side I'm thinking to myself, "this IS the definitive live album release of my generation". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchflowers Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Sold out on the DFA website. I'm glad I didn't sleep on it. 2 weeks till shipping.. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarzioo_ Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I somehow lucked out and found a copy of this a week after RSD. It was hidden in a glass box with the guitars. I'm so glad that everyone is saying how awesome it sounds!! Makes me feel more comfortable with the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eshame Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I hope holding out for the mass release ends up paying off... i don't know if anyone knows for sure they'll be a mass release (or maybe a great release, eh eh LCD joke) plus i mean isn't /3000 kind of a mass release for a $130 somewhat niche box set? i wouldn't be surprised if the 3000 for RSD plus maybe some overrun is all they do.

I think LCD is a lot less "niche" than you would imagine. LCD might not be insanely popular on VC but that's not really saying very much. If you can sellout MSG, you should have no problem moving 3000 of these boxsets, especially considering the hype and context surrounding their final gig. $130 is most definitely a worthy price for this too, IMO.

natenomm Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking. If this ever hits Amazon I'll probably bite. I just hope that sitting on it for this long comes back to bite me in the arse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negavinyl Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 There's a preorder up on amazon now actually, $148. The marketplace is where any potential deal might be found though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, wonder if that negates the rumor that the regular edition was gonna be around $60? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

negavinyl Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 $60 seems pretty low. I would have bitten at $90 even, $130+ was just a tough pill to swallow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkeyelids Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Really don't think there is any way this would be $60, 5x 180gram with 10 quality inserts, nah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundofsilver Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Kris from DFA said yesterday that he thought there was around a thousand on what you can get from them, some other stores, before the 20th. Glad i made the right decision price wise to pick it up on RSD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I've read that 5 times, and I still don't know what you are saying. tape and ditc586 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 So this is coming out again in 3 days? Anyone seen a preorder for it yet? Is the digital download ready? Still curious about that $60 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
