gmoney Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 turns out he's been playing non-christmas encores! I know - crazy. Good for those who hate Christmas. Thanks for this. On Amazon, it says it will be released on December 4th. Do you know if that means it will ship out by then? It should be. These are done being pressed and are being shipped out in the next week or two. If not Dec. 4, shouldn't be long after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedannychang Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 /2000. Isn't that how many there were on Bandcamp? There seem to be more hitting stores as well as hitting places like Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trashbum86 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yeah soldout on bandcamp awhile ago. Maybe they held a few for retail? I know it said limited to 2000, but are they numbered? Is there any difference between the preorder from Sufjan and retail? Am I asking too many question that no one can answer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoney Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Not numbered. Orders from Bandcamp are supposed to have Christmas surprises. No idea what. I'll try and and get pics later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slv Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Okay, so I just saw Sufjan in Tucson and it was great. I definitely recommend checking him out if you have a chance. I also picked the vinyl box set (for 120!) at the concert. It's pretty awesome, but I was wondering if it is the same as the preorder. The girl at the merch table said that they only had 50 for the tour and that it was part of the 2000. I was wondering though if anybody knows what came with the preorder? Was it on white vinyl?

gmoney Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 I'm selling an extra for 130 shipped. If you can send as PayPal gift. First to PM gets it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdb Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I don't know about you guys, but Sufjan's originals are my favorite tracks on here. Although I love most of the covers too, I'd love to be able to just spin his 20+ songs straight through. Here's the thing: He made all of his original songs public domain and in one of his essays encouraged people to use them however they wish. How about somebody makes some sweet original screen printed cover art, presses them on red and green vinyl or something, and sells them at cost? Nobody's making money off Sufjan's work, we just get to have a concise collection of his originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they are already on vinyl, and in a sensational box set. Redundant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdb Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I really don't understand the point in this. I mean, they are already on vinyl, and in a sensational box set. Redundant? Well, I bought the cd box because I wanted the essays and lyrics. I don't care even a little bit about the stickers, poster, tattoos or ornament and I can't justify an extra $100 to have the songs on vinyl when I'll only really listen to it 4 weeks per year, especially the traditional songs. For $10-$15 though, I would love to have his originals on vinyl. They're my favorite songs on the album and I'd probably even listen to them outside of Christmas. Maybe I'm the only one.

AlexH. Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 His original compositions are public domain, I am guessing he retains control of the recordings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
