stuartmaxwell Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 release various "live cds", or remix albums. all with four types of "handmade" artwork that peopel lap up. i remember the pearl jam summer tour cds for every gig they did.shit merchandising plots "i just want a copy of that limited edition record on its own, i dont want to buy a £30 hoodie as well so i can get the record before it sells out, i also dont like paying 20 dollars us postage because they refuse to supply it on UK distro"mr turner/hydrahead corporation really annoys me with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did buy the Glasgow release that Pearl Jam put out on the Binaural Tour but purely because i was there and it was a nice memento of the gig.

Guest bluesxman Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 This CD cost me just a shade over 7 quid including postage from the States. Fine by me. And it's fucking great as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
