    I just hope this doesn't become a mess since you could buy the box set "anywhere". I remember I had a record that was faulty and then it was like "you didn't buy straight from the label so there is nothing I can do"

    Not a chance they'd do that! I purchased RTR copies at locat polish store and there was no problem getting a replacement.

    I totally agree with you here. Reality is different though. Probably not the best comparison, but in software development it is totally normal that you ignore bugs that just get a low amount of reports. If all clients complain you typically throw all your resources at it and you make sure to fix it as soon as possible.

    At the end Warner is a business and I wouldn't be surprised if it comes down to a calculation of "how many people do we piss off to safe money", in which case the number of reports would make a difference (I am exaggerating here, I am sure most people there, like Adam for example, care about a delivering a high quality product without compromises).

    Again, they replaced RTR and it was just an issue with censored tracks that should not have been censored! We have an issue here with two songs but the switched dvd's are much worse problem at the moment and I believe they will send replacements. We just have to wait.

    I don't doubt that they don't know. There is a difference if 10 people or 200 people complain about a problem though.

    Also I am not saying that anyone should bitch around. It is totally possible to complain about the situation in a friendly way which should be the default anyway. 

    IMHO doesn't matter if it's 10 or 200 people wit hthe faulty item. They surely should do something about it because this isn't $20 but $200!! Not to mention it's 20th anniversary dammit!!! Don;t get me wrong, maybe I misread what you meant. Of course we can talk about the issues like you said, in a polite manner but again, imho we shouldn't spam them.

     

    As I remember correctly, the Road To Revolution censored records issue was handled very proffesionally and as simple as they could handle such situation. However, people received a regular black issue, instead of splattered but this is still fine I'd say. MAYBE this thing could be handled in the same way? Send a proof of purchase and/or photos and you're done. Wait some time and receive a replacement items. Case closed. We will see!

    I would argue that everyone who is unsatisfied with the problems should contact them instead of relying on information from other people.

    The more people make it clear that they are unhappy with the situation the higher the chances that they will do something.

    Just believe me they know, can't say more  at this time but it would be better to just wait and see what can be done instead of bitching and escalating the anger further. They know and just let them decide what to do next. I don't think they will ignore this because at least switched DVDs are a big issue in such release.

     

    And before anyone asks, I got two copies (one for collection and one for scans and play) and I have the same exact problem you all have.

    I was about to say lol. Funny how you think they were going to do a live Q&A when:

     

    a) Mike did them for months before STOPPING them bc people asked so many insensitive/stupid questions

     

    b) Even during the pandemic we managed to get FOUR of em together, the task of getting them together for a Q&A in one place at one time I’m sure takes a lot scheduling. They didn’t HAVE to do this, especially since the DVD pretty much comes out the same day.

     

    though i have to say “soy cuck move” is a new favorite line

    a) Not every fan watches Mike's streams. Also Mike isn't the band. People want to see the band live, even for something simple as q&a

    b) Again, they're doing nothing at this time (touring? new album?) and believe me, I laughed hard when i read "getting the band together takes a lot of scheduling" You serious? Don't get me wrong but this is really funny to say about millionaires that can't afford (time and decent internet) to host a LIVE event.

     

    Also "they didn't have to do this" do what? Record a video and stream a show which is on the dvd while MAKING money out of it? Of course they didn't but this is easy money XD

    Live Q&A's online are a terrible idea lol. Look at what a shitshow Mike's livestream chat turned into, that's why he mostly stopped taking questions.

    Remember Paparoach anniversary stream? I expected something like this (with answers on questions they asked for earlier - which i had no idea about too) This could be done easily, also talking about weak internet? Really? A multi-million band with such label and no internet connection to host such event? I call this bullshit.

  6. As I go through comments here and there, most fans I see talk about Chester's audtion tape and demos. OF COURSE it's all about the music BUT don't forget there are people involved in this (and always have been) What I'm trying to say is, apart from the music, which all of us would like to get and listen to ASAP, I would love to get a photo album just like MTM had (the deluxe coffee table book) with comments on how it was back then (and I know they still have some cool stories to tell) etc. PHOTOS, STORIES AND MUSIC.

  7. ICQ is a no go, i just checked. 246-357-457 does not exist.

     

    Ok so I think one of the next steps (or one of the very last) would be to repair corrupted music files using defraggler (because what other purpose for it there? hah)

    He said it was the VMA's but it most probably was the Billboard Music Awards show. They never performed BID at the VMAs, just at the Billboard Music Awards and the American Music Awards. When comparing both performances the Billboard one looks like it was more chaotic with people running of the stage in the beginning.

     

    Edit: Listening to it again. Mike even said "BMA's" 😄 But I think most people misheard it.

    Yeah we misheard it. He said BMA's and Mike starts too early with the keys! haha

     

    That's my actual question about the DSPs:

    Update!

    Dan Mayo's files, a new tape loop, and the most important thing...

    MIKE KNOWS 👀🤣

    Like he knew from the beginning but wasn't sure if we're paying attention, he was sure when he fucked up with the HT20 tracks, now he's just trying to be funny about it :P MEH mr. SHAWNODA, M.E.H. 🤣

    I'm sure pretty sure that Mike don't rememeber any Meteora remixes (if they exist) after like 18 years, we know him. But is weird that he totally took the Meteora remixes out of the answer and didn't mention anything.

    The whole never do another remix album thing is pretty obvious imo, Mike had a big role in 90% of the Reanimation songs, i don't think he want to spend all that time again just for a remix album so in Recharged they just send the multitracks to some big name producers in the EDM scene and call it a day (Which explain why is that bad)

     

    How much shinodabucks is a question?

    400 😐

    Mike has already answered about Meteora remixes in an earlier stream. He said he doesn't remember them at all but would keep an eye out for them when going through his files.

    I know he answered but I didn't get a proper answer to any part of my question. I added Meteora just to, you know, see what happens this time. I  believe if people will ask about them here and then he just might take a minute and find an answer if there is anything (band members either trolled or said the truth) and if not, why, because imho there was a big potential on some songs to be remixed (remember Phoenix in LPTV? He "remixed" Numb)

    - "Did you expect Recharged to be as popular as Reanimation? And what about the Meteora remixes?" -> "No, I don't have expectations of that. Reanimation was remixing Hybrid Theory so I don't think anybody expected another remix album to be as popular as that. And I don't know if we expected Reanimation to be as popular as it was, so there's that."

    I'll reply with what I said on the shoutbox, I expected to get an answer about Recharged, not Reanimation. You do stuff based on things, you add another show when the 1st date has been sold out etc. thus they did Recharged based on impulse of some sort, maybe this was just an online project with remixes (this I can understand) but there was that one time where they probably (or Warner, nothing new here lol) thought hey, let's make an album of these and voila.

    After Reanimation I told many people I would never put together another album of remixes…but as I began to hear all the amazing reinterpretations of LIVING THINGS, I had to change my mind. The result, RECHARGED, is definitely worth it. I can’t wait for you guys to hear this amazing project, with contributions by Pusha T, DATSIK, KillSonik, Bun B, Money Mark, and others. Our new song with Steve Aoki, A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES is on the album as well, plus a special remix of the new song by the inimitable Rick Rubin.

    Enjoy the music,

    - Mike

    This confirms things, but imho online releases would be enough. I think LT isn't an album that should have remixes officially released as an album but that's just my opinion. Would really like to get a real answer why Mike is so "NO NO" about any other remixes, especially Meteora. IS it his holy grail of albums that shouldn't be touched? (And since he confirmed on what's quoted that he said "never" and then changed his mind, I bet reinterpreted/remixed Meteora would get more attention than Recharged)

    Someone needs to ask him about the 17 MTM tracks since it’s the anniversary. We could finally know what they were! We know all but the 17th one. So if we ask him we would say the 12 album songs, NRL, ATL, WWDK, Blackbirds and the last one. We have guesses but never knew for sure. I feel like he would answer it!


    I can ask this one today :)

    That's Mike's folder of guitar sound presets in the Axe FX. First couple pages are the LP live show sounds.

    Oh really? Didn't catch that in the first place. Now listened again and indeed Mike said it that he made them for for example guitar tech's. Meh. Still interesting for a guitar noob like myself though 😄

  13. Don't know if anyone noticed but check out these screens from todays Mike stream, they look interesting 🧐

    Long story short, GO demo seekers. These might shine a new light to some of the songs, right?

    edit: meh, nothing new as Astat said, just some live stuff.

  14. Imho a boxset with a record, CD and hardcover book with unreleased photos + a history would be enough! Can't wait.

     

    Based on what's currently going on, I predict the price would be somewhere around $120-$150 for a boxset. If it's not what we think it would be, a CD/DVD would be cool too. $40

     

    All of the above are only our ideas. I really think this would be a 2LP colored record set. HT on one, demos on second.

  15. Little suggestion, I know this stuff (especially streams over 1,5hrs) takes a lot of space BUT you need to (yes you @PeppePark) to dl all the streams, save all the screenshots for future  - just in case they're gone. Also if you're into this far deeper than most of us (I mean, I have so little time to work on lpcatalog, not to mention other stuff...I barely come back to any of the streams, I wish I had more time though) maybe you could gather all the answers and make a topic with Q&A: Corona Jams Sessions?
