LPUX Announced

[A_Savage_Jedi]

listening 2 the song......very mellow catchy hook.....all chester no mike....mike maybe in the background

Pretty sure Mike does harmonies on it.

[Dark_Adolescent]

I'm quite surprised it hasn't leaked yet.

I'm quite surprised it hasn't leaked yet.

Most people are sleeping or something, atleast on my IM's.

lol this is the exact same tracklist of Songs From The Underground, with the addition of the 2 demos in the end. I doubt anyone will pay 60$ for one new song

[GigaScythe]

Okay, I'm kinda confused, excuse the question since I'm not too bright early in the morning.

 

I just paid for an LPU membership a month or two ago - does this mean when LPU9 rolls over to LPUX I'll have to purchase AGAIN? My current membership will cease to be valid? Or what?

 

If so...

[stuz]

The new LPU is all about the experience with the band. We're hoping to offer opportunities like we've never offered before. Regardless of what you think, people don't join lpu for the keychain, the t-shirt, or even the CD. People join for the experience with the band they can't get anywhere else. We want to improve that and stop using our resources to produce packages that never please everyone.

What are you talkin' about?

That can be true ONLY if you live in USA...

And before this change of direction we were allowed to access all this *new* features paying less and receiving more. At least a CD and a Shirt, just to let you know that you payed money for something REAL.

 

I'm quite disappointed, sorry

I'm trying to find out the same thing right now. I'm in the same situation. I got LPU9 for Christmas last year and unfortunately, I didn't really activate my membership until 3 or 4 months ago. Although I'm not sure, I'm afraid the answer is probably yes. I'm guessing that we will have to pay money and upgrade to LPUX (or buy) to receive real benefits.

I renewed mine too, but on the confirmation email it says mermbership till ..., so it must be vaild until then

[Jesper]

I never could afford this

lol and now it's even more expensive :/

 

I will just have to wait until the new demo song is on youtube etc. lol

I've been working for 14 hours, so I'm not gonna get into everything now, but I thought I'd comment.

 

This is not an online only membership. Online content, with the exception of chats, will now be free. There's no point in charging people for online content that only remains exclusive for 5 minutes. The new LPU is all about the experience with the band. We're hoping to offer opportunities like we've never offered before. Regardless of what you think, people don't join lpu for the keychain, the t-shirt, or even the CD. People join for the experience with the band they can't get anywhere else. We want to improve that and stop using our resources to produce packages that never please everyone.

 

I know now this seems a little crazy, but I hope you guys let us prove to you that things really are getting better for you.

 

On another note, the CD download is NOT the LPUX CD.

Not convinced, especially since you're being extremely vague.

 

How will a higher cost magically make LP have more time online for the fans? Or make the other five guys even WANT to talk to the fans online? How will you compensate for other "experiences" besides concerts, especially since LP coming to one's town is such a rare event that probably most LPUers don't get to use a concert opportunity in any given year? Is there any value in said "experinces" for people outside of Los Angeles?

 

the fact that nothing concrete has been said about the so called "experinces" before dropping the price is VERY fishy. You are not promising me anything concrete, you're asking me to gamble, and i find that patently ridiculous.

 

Also, is what you're saying really what market research said? everyone i know, including me, got it for the shirt and the CD.

Well if that's the case, bye bye LPU, it's been fun

[linkingabo]

package for $60 + shipping like $20 ..too much ..I will buy the LPUX only if it has a HTEP in it... crazy prices

 

Edit: no package? ..even more expensive

Edited August 19, 2010 by linkingabo

[levisa92]

easy calculation base on the packages' prices

 

monthly online pass: $10 per month

annual online pass: $60 per year

 

$10 x 12months = $120 > $60

a double to that of annual online pass

 

omg it's too expensive! D:

Agreed

[NoFace]

There won't be no package, so I guess there's no shipping fee either >.>

 

And what Kathy said.

[DecanoLP]

Fuck it, I didn't even buy my LPU9 package...

[Ashwhisker]

I just spent a lot of my money on the new album. I don't know if I'm really going to shell out another $60+ on lpux

[linkingabo]

I wish we rode our car on bubbles so we would have some money put aside for the LPUX..

Edited August 19, 2010 by linkingabo

[dagolad]

To be honest 60 $ is a joke. I´m done with the LPU.

[BeardyWilderness]

It works out to $5 a month. In my opinion, it's reasonable.

[deanowardust]

wow, so on one hand we got a preview of Blackout.....and now there's a demo floating around. Can't wait to hear the demo.....what era is it from?

[stuz]

guys, on LPU.com i found this string:

 

"stay tuned for info coming soon on the new LPUX CD and LPU merchandise packages"

 

So there will be merchs and CD?!

WTF!?

someone explain me well, please...

[thegluelpfan]

I can't believe the prices!And no package for $60? Damn,I love the LPU but honestly I don't think I'll be able to afford that.And my main concern right now is whether I'll be a member till my lpu 9 membership rolls out or till LPUX comes in...I appreciate Adam coming in and giving us details but please Adam,could you tell us when our membership ends?So I guess from now on it will be only online "packages" and if you want to get a shirt or key chain or whatever you'd have to get it separately from the lpu store.I guess we'll find out more soon...

[linkingabo]
