Shitty Rambo Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Hmm, think I'm gonna pass. I honestly feel like Connor Oberst hasn't kicked much ass since Digital Ash (I'm Wide Awake isn't his best work). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkticon Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 The t-shirts are what get me on all these packages, I just don't need them. The shirt isn't bad. But I certainly don't need it. Nor do I need TWO CD copies of the record, or TWO posters. Just gimme the two records and I'll be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdb Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 damn, all of that for $50 is a pretty decent deal. Hell yeah man, you could buy THREE of these for the price of ONE giant cardboard Swiss Army knife! Take a lesson Carrabba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popquizkid Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I'm wondering how long this will stay up. Seems like the Kasher package sold pretty quickly but that was limited to 100 packages—still, it seems save to say that 20x more people are into Bright Eyes than Tim Kasher on his own.

gmoney Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 My buddy at Saddle Creek says they've sold about 700. Says he expects them to last at least through the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popquizkid Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Well, that answers that question. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoney Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 These are a little over half gone. Also asked about some reissue possibilities for those interested (specifically Fevers and Mirrors, because I have been contemplating the UK reissue). He said they are pretty focused on the new album, so nothing is in the works. Expects it will get reissued eventually, but might be towards the end of 2011.

icecream Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Bought the /2000 package that killed my bank account but I couldn't resist any longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveisdrunk Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Just received this email: thanks for your pre-order of the people's key i want it all bundle! we are very excited about the record and hope you enjoy it as much as we have over the past few months.i wanted to give everyone a heads up that the color of the limited edition vinyl has changed from what it was originally advertised as. instead of being white with red, orange, and yellow, the vinyl came back to us as being more red with some black streaks in it. for those who own cursive's mama i'm swollen LP, it is similar, although a little more orange. we realize that this is not what you, as a customer, purchased. if anyone would like to cancel or change their order, please feel free to do so. otherwise, we will get your bundle out on or around february 8th. cheers, nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popquizkid Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I got this, too. Kind of a bummer since all of the Cursive variants (I just got the Domestica reissue) have been on that same color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightyseancore Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 i ordered the i want it all set about a week ago. can't wait. i did the same thing with the tim kasher package when it was a pre-order. the 7" it came with was number 2/100. =) I got this, too. Kind of a bummer since all of the Cursive variants (I just got the Domestica reissue) have been on that same color. ugly organ was green.

seafoamgreen Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Also didn't get the email but I'm completely indifferent about what the color is as long as it's in my hands sooner rather than later. Bummed that I don't have many other releases to look forward to this year. Kinda blowin' my load early here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Got a black copy off SRC during the boxing day sale. They couldn't throw you guys a cell phone pic? Least Saddle Creek does an amazing job with their presses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathroommonkey Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 saddle creek newsletter said about 200 of the delux editions are left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popquizkid Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 They probably should have made this a run of 500... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkticon Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 They probably should have made this a run of 500... Except they managed to sell 1800 of them before they even made it off the presses. Once they sell the last 200 that's $100k gross. Why sell themselves short if they know they can make the numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
