thepunkguy Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I tried to look for another posting about this but I didn't see one. directly from the Poison City Records website.. 01MAY KNAPSACK AUSTRALIAN TOUR & LP REISSUES ON POISON CITY Following the exciting news that California’s Knapsack are headed to Australia for the first time this August to headline Poison City’s Weekender Fest, the band have now announced 3 additional dates while in the country. They’ll play Newtown SC (Sydney) on Wed Aug 20th, Crowbar (Brisbane) on Sat Aug 23rd and a second Melbourne show on Thu Aug 21st at The Reverence Hotel. Pre-sale tickets for Friday’s Weekender Fest show featuring Knapsack, The Bennies, Luca Brasi, Clowns, The Gifthorse and Apart From This (Aug 22nd at Corner Hotel) are very near sold out - the last few tickets are available from Poison City Shop/ Online and Corner Hotel Box Office/ Online.In line with the Australian tour we’re also delighted to announce limited edition LP reissues of Knapsack’s classic 90’s albums ‘Day Three Of My New Life’ and ‘This Conversation Is Ending Starting Right Now’. Both albums have been remastered and repackaged and will be released on July 4th via Poison City. Pre-orders will be available in coming days from our E-Store www.poisoncityestore.com and the instagram picture. http://instagram.com/p/nb1IGhqC7p/ not sure if these will be made available in North America but I sure do hope so.. if not, who wants to share some shipping?

derby625 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I'm sure they'll find a way to distribute these in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnorth Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Interesting. I had a rough time trying to get Alias to cooperate with me so I'm very excited to see this happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchashorttime Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 i'd share shipping if they're not readily available in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 If all else fails, I'll happily buy as many copies as you guys are interested in, and ship them all over in a box for whoever to ship on to the others. Newtown social club is about a 5 minute walk from my house, and I'm certain my local record store will have them too gavinclancy95 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickcritter Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I would love to see these reissues domestically here. Been wanting both of these albums for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnorth Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I just asked to distro through my label btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacktownjim Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Really, really hope this means Day Three is being pressed as an LP! If US customers end up not being able to buy online and someone could hook me up with a copy of each, I'd certainly appreciate it. EDIT: I'm a doof and just saw the picture linked, Day Three as an LP! It's a happy day indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

converge88 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I am SO excited!!! I would split some shipping from aus as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacktownjim Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Also relevant: I ended up with an extra copy of Silver Sweepstakes so if anyone's looking for that feel free to shoot me some offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_Corday Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Good news that it's also going to get a US repress - obviously I'm stoked on the local release being from Australia, but I wouldn't want these to be so limited that not everyone who wanted one was able to get their hands on a copy.

daniele Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Never odered from Australia to Europe, if the costs are the same i will order directly from them.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnorth Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Just a clarification on what's happening. No Idea does exclusive distro for Poison City. So unless a US pressing ends up happening, No Idea should be carrying it. If they don't have it, a US pressing should be imminent. Also I am in no way affiliated with either label Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
̮ ɤ ̮ Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Never odered from Australia to Europe, if the costs are the same i will order directly from them.... I just tried it with another record and shipping to Germany for one record was $35. Every additional record is around $17. I thought of a group buy but those shipping prices are just insane. Bummer!

thoughtsky Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Yeah that's really a problem..we will have to wait for a distro to sell it or a US press Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 It doesn't cost $35 to ship 1 LP to Germany. I can ship a single LP, with tracking for $24.20AU. Still expensive, but not $35 expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
