Charles Barkley Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I hope this is the correct thread, as I know there are like three of these... But this was just tweeted out "Day of the Dead @dayofthedead Epic @GratefulDead tribute created by @aaron_dessner & @bryce_dessner available for pre-order March 24 #dayofthedead " Halo 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.SteveZissou Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 LP pre order info coming soon. How much is this thing going it be?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unravelled Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Probably $150. They did price the 5 disc cd set at a very reasonable $25 which gives me hope that the vinyl won't be a total bank account buster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobannaboc Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'm digging the songs included in the album preview. Hoping this doesn't break the bank because I really want this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobannaboc Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Their tweets say this will be up for preorder between now and May 20th... So I'm obsessively checking for two months...

MahPah Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 This is going to be incredible. I'm kinda surprised Animal Collective isn't a part of this since they were the first band ever to legally sample a GD track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksuwdboots Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 "The 10xLP boxed set will cost around $145/£110." That's definitely less than I was expecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamJNovak Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I told my buddy about this and he wants it but says it's a bit high for him at the moment. He asked if it was limited and I said I didn't know? Are we thinking that the color variants are limited and then they'll have a black version? Or there isn't a limit on this?

With the PO being two full months before release date, and the higher price point, I could see an open preorder period for quite a while. Probably not limited to a specific # at first, will be dictated by demand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not limited to a specific # at first, will be dictated by demand. That's exactly what I told him. Even though I found an article that states it's a "limited edition" release, but doesn't say how "limited" it is. http://www.thevinylfactory.com/vinyl-factory-news/the-national-grateful-dead-tribute-day-of-the-dead-vinyl/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
