bgdesign Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Picked up the Mixtape bundle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdomestic Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Mixtape bundle is now sold out. The 7" series sounds interesting but it's $225 (!!!) and doesn't seem to come with the actual LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Wow...Going to hit that goal in first day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradedOnACurve Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Am I the only one who feels weird about this? I mean I love Ted Leo but a kickstarter with an $85,000 goal is really rubbing me the wrong way. Good for him potentially hitting it though.

He clearly recorded it, has other musicans on it that we wants to pay, mastering, production costs of the physical means, making some money off it to survive as he is self releasing so all costs in it are his, putting money into his studio If you think he just netted 85k, you are crazy......and if ted leo did make 85k from making a record at this point, good for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Can't wait for the mixtape. I hope its all shit like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdomestic Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I guess anyone who contributed to the Kickstarter campaign got the email, but for those who didn't... The new album is a 14 song 2LP called "The Hanged Man" and will be shipping in late August or early September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like Greg Dulli (nice avatar!), Ted Leo can do no wrong so I was beyond thrilled to see that 7" box set. If you really, truly want the box set, I think we are able to adjust our pledges to add items. PM me if you're 100% interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moglog Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 SO PUMPED. September is actually earlier than I expected. I hope Little Smug Supper Club is on it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdomestic Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm seriously considering upping my pledge to get the 7" box set too. I was holding out to see how many songs were going to be on the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's released the tracklist yet other than it's a total of 14 songs. From the last email, it sounds like the B sides of the 7"'s will be a mix of songs and instrumentals.

I was hoping all the b-sides would be unique songs. Does anyone happen to know if the regular vinyl of this will be available after the Kickstarter?
