rgusa8 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 i ordered Riot from cduniverse 7 days ago and it still hasn't been cancelled. Still says backordered. Were you guys getting fast cancellations? Same here, not counting on it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Yes I'm still waiting to get the blue HT exclusive vinyl in. At this point I'm expecting it to be out around 4/30 or so trevorxramage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biodigitaljazz Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I would assume it will available online. I'm jazzed for it. As a pre-orderer of a limited edition /1000 bundle on their site, I'll probably nab the /1500 Blue HT exclusive. One to play, one to keep? Dunno. Anyway, got that Holiday Sessions 7" too. $18 after shipping, seeing them already go for $60-70 on eBay is pretty cool, but I'll keep mine. As for shipping on the vinyl copies, I'm getting antsy. I want my box set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Yes, there will be a ton of copies available online at HT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtomoe123 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 got my shipping confirmation too. why the fuck did I pick parcel post? also, are people still waiting on the regular LP? I'm personally holding out for the HT blue, but Grimey's had a shit ton of the regular LP on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylo234 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Yeah I also came home to mine being at my doorstep. Weird. But oh well, the 7" sounds awesome! Will listen to the LP in a little bit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biodigitaljazz Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Okay, so confirmation, my orders shipped too! I'm not home now, maybe it'll arrive today! Can certainly update this post with pics if some would like to see when I get home! it scanned "Out for Delivery" at 4:18am today so I'm assuming it'll arrive soon! EDIT: I can't make the embed album work, so here's an imgur link to the album of my unboxing http://imgur.com/a/Oi4Kz Initial thoughts: A hefty box set, and a nice collector's item. I'm a little upset because of my box number (I got 351/7000 on the BNE box) but it's all a great deal. The box set is basically to house the 7" and the poster if you don't hang it (I don't know if I will- I've already got a "Hands Up!'" lithograph on my wall). At first I tried to fit the "Self Titled Life" book into the set and it wouldn't fit, but I realized if I remove the bubble wrap from the box, the book will probably fit in. Everything is pretty sweet except- the vinyl. I mean, I we can't expect 180g out of everyone, but it just kind of sucks. I haven't played it, but it just feels flimsy as a lot of vinyl does these days. Holding right the fuck out for the HT blue /1500 version. Side note: If anyone got this bundle, and by any chance got an XL hoodie and it's too small, I will gladly trade you mine for yours. This XL is massive on me, and I've lost some weight these days.

hobohunter48 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Same thing happened with me! Looks great, but haven't had a chance to spin it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searos Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I am hoping the holiday sessions ships soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 so there's a CD in the packaging too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biodigitaljazz Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Well, I just realized that not everyone got the same bundle as I did. I don't know about the regular vinyl editions. My copy, which was part of a /1000 pre-order, (but contained a /7000 total box set) has a little CD slot built right into the gatefold and comes with a copy on CD, but doesn't have the bonus tracks on it like it did on the BNE box. The BNE 7" box set was a DVD/CD deal, and it had its own dedicated regular vinyl release. Bought the CD at the store on 4/9, this shipped today, and I will probably get the HT Exclusive. I'm also jazzed to get The Holiday Sessions. I saw them going for $65 on eBay which is interesting, and a signed copy for $400+. I won't sell mine, though. Probably not.

chutterhanban Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I heard a couple pages back (from Travis, I think) that we might be looking at a 4/23 HT release date. I'm assuming that's not true? Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtomoe123 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Turns out my apartment office has this. UGH. have to wait. Well, I just realized that not everyone got the same bundle as I did.

I have one of the signed ones and I got crazy tempted after seeing that. I had a second but I let my friend who waited in line with me to get it keep it instead.

biodigitaljazz Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 poops. it is an exclusive color, though, right? They're blue. Is there any way we can be notified? I'd hate to miss out on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a second but I let my friend who waited in line with me to get it keep it instead. Im not a fan of flippers, but if I ever bought a record and it jumped to $400 the same week I would sell it in a heart beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biodigitaljazz Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Playing the record now, sounds really tight. Only complaint is, Still Into You is DECIDELY lacking bass. I know it's not my little beginner's table or stereo system either, because, even though it's amplified a little bit, the bass drum at the beginning of Proof is BOOMING. Sounds good to me, I'm satisfied Now bring on that HT Exclusive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 They're blue. Is there any way we can be notified? I'd hate to miss out on it. Not really, I try and post updates when I have new info about when its releasing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex47 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 They don't seem to have shipped the UK store-ordered boxsets yet so I sent them an email to see what's going on. I'm looking forward to that blue variant, just a shame that it's with HT. They try to charge $46.35 to ship one LP to the UK. Flippers on ebay might actually be a cheaper option!
