What time will we get to hear the album? Midnight, tomorrow morning, tomorrow at noon, tomorrow at 1, what?

I just ordered online. When do I get my log-in code for the BEGN site?

Fuck, it says within 3 business days. I hope they email it today.

i could careless about hearing the mp3 by tomorrow as long as the code arrives by thursday to get the early presale for the listed shows

FYI - if you go to the BEGN site and enter the email address with which you bought the record you will be emailed your access code. it doesn't appear that the BEGN site is actually letting anyone log in to the site quite yet though, which makes sense since they don't want to really do anything with it until the stream tomorrow...

What page do you do that on?

it is 03:28 in the morning here. it is still not up on for a streaming. not that I would be waiting for it so desperately, but I'm off to work soon...yeah, hopefully later...it is 28th. today right?

Moshe, can you confirm this? if the BEGN deal is a double cd with one of the cds being the battery park gig i may have to place another order.

i will try to find out with the matador dudes.

posted this in the 28th arpil thread as well, but Insound has a singed copy for the first 100 orders;

No they changed it, right after i ordered it. It says "CD" now and not "Double CD".
They got it wrong cuz it's a double LP but a single CD;
so nothing new here.

awe dammit! I really wanted Battery Park on CD as well!

just saw the UK one online.... £21 is a really bad deal. I feel like such a tool - just to stream it early. get an extra LP and to have oppertunity to spend more of my money early on gigs that'll probably be a shedload of hassle to get to. I hope it's worth it.

£24+ fuck me!

Why not get it from Matador directly? It's 32 USD incl. shipping to Europe, which works out to around 21.50 GBP. If you don't think that's very good value for a CD plus double LP....well, I don't know what to say.

yeah - i'm just not used to buying music that's so expensive. I don't normally get LPs either so i don't really have an idea of value on that part. i'm sure it'll be worth it - but is a little steep i think. Already bit the bullet .

Full album stream's up on the BEGN site - 'Anti-Orgasm' is pretty tight. It's the same media player as 'Sacred Trickster' and the Eternal mix - just hit the forward button if you want to advance to the other songs.

did you already order?

Yes sirree bob. Do I need to order one for you as well?
