hahninator Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I know I keep hyping it, but I think LPU 9 is going to be the best LPU year yet. The CD is going to be absolutely killer. For those of you who haven't seen the tracklisting, check out Mike's post about it here. Things I'd like to bring up about the package: - This is the first time we're getting a vinyl from the LPU - the premiere pack is back! - 9 tracks is the 2nd most of any LPU CD we've had before (LPU 7 with 10 live tracks comes in first) - A totally new completed song for an album (b-side of MTM) that we've never heard before (first time since LPU 4) With a release date in early December, which I would guess would be within the first five days of the month, I would expect more information on the package to be released very soon by the LPU. That is, after all, only two weeks away! I'm pretty psyched for what the shirt will look like and what else the package will have. And will they have the Best Buy package available again? After seeing that HMV Japan is able to sell the CD, I would imagine so; Black Friday is the biggest sales day of the year, so could we possibly get the CD next Friday? Excited much?

hahninator Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Announcement Service Public was on LPU 6. Meh I was getting at the whole "song made, mastered and completed for album consideration" instead of "seed taken from a big jumble and given to the LPU" kinda thing, lol. fail mark -.- so how much will the complete package be incl shipping for international? Last joined in 06 so guess prices will be higher. ....fail? What? Prices will not be higher than the highest $ package now I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume ASP was considered for the album at some point, QWERTY was. What on LPU4 would fit that description anyway though? Sold My Soul was a random instrumental that they recorded during the Collision Course recording sessions (I'm assuming), and Standing in the Middle isn't really even an LP song. GraDoN - LPU package prices really haven't increased at all over the years, the regular membership has always been $25 and I believe the international one has always been $32. The past couple years they've added an additional $5 shipping charge to the package though, so it comes to a total of $30 or $37. I really doubt that'll change, they've changed a lot of things about the LPU over the years, but they've always kept the price the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraDoN Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 was joking about the fail... but thanks i'll be joining then, $37 is rather cheap for what you get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderStrike Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 What is it that you get from an LPU membership which makes it 'cheap'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 What is it that you get from an LPU membership which makes it 'cheap'? The LPU is pretty much the only fanclub for a big-name band that I'm aware of right now that does a fanclub-exclusive CD every year. The price is comparable to other fanclubs, but none of them offer a CD. With most of them, you'll get a t-shirt, website access, and maybe a sticker/pin/membership card.

Papelbon Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I'm prolly gonna order mine through the LPU this time, I want the DC shirt as opposed to the "not-DC" shirt that you get from Best Buy.. On another note, is anyone gonna buy anything good on black friday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraDoN Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 What is it that you get from an LPU membership which makes it 'cheap'?well when i import the shipping is always atleast 10$ so thats $27 for a shirt a cd and some other stuff. To me thats a pretty sweet deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wear my LPU shirts a lot and it took my sister a couple of years (literally) to realize there was a DC logo on it. It's also nice to have a shirt that hasn't been vacuum-packed into a little cube so it can fit into the tiny box the Best Buy package comes in. It took me at least half a dozen washes to get the wrinkles out of my LPU 8 shirt enough for it to be wearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warehouse from Dave Matthews is the only other one. They get live tracks and shit though I believe, nothing to the extent of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
