... was amazed that even the signed singles, at least 250,- EUR per piece, were sold out after a few hours. What may come next?
Congratulations to everyone who was successful at the order process. :smth023

Very annoyed by this. Why make it so hard to obtain and so expensive after all that talk about Ticketmaster fees? Lame.

The one thing has nothing to do with the other!

So I could finally pick up my copy from the post office yesterday - #3294/5000

It's a great release, nice translucent brown vinyl, superb press quality (unlike lots of new LP releases apparently), very good sound.

And yes, it's good to have an official release again after all these years!
