Okay all.
We realize part of the draw last year was that the CDs were in click packaging, but we didn't have the time this year to pull that together. Because of this, we wanted to see what you all thought of the following.

Nutopia has the tracks. Nigel has come up with a cool little booklet that would go inside a plastic CD case.

Would people still be interested in buying physical copies at shows that we'd be at (NYC, Philly, Washington DC) ala donation. We could also get physical copies to others to sell at shows we are not attending. I would then collect the funds raised and donate it as a large sum to FS like I did with the last amount of funds.

OR

Would people just prefer to have the CD tracks emailed to them with a pdf of the CD booklet and they can print/burn themselves copy. If we do it this way, we'd still like to have donations towards our goat, so I guess I'd set up a paypal sort of thing for people to send in donations?

Let us know.

I'm in England...

*waits for cheers in the crowd to die down...*

...so i guess the latter is easiest. I'll happily donate to FS through paypal.

I was under the impression that we would have a website up with the download like the previous HWNtMG compilation.

Probably the latter would be best.

I'd buy one in DC. Money is tighter this year so I couldn't spend as much as I did last year (It's the most I've ever paid for a CD...by far). But I could probs give at least $10...

Hey, don't feel guilty or bad about it at all. This is just a fun thing people are doing that we (Nutopia/myself) decided should go towards the Forum adopted goat. It's totally sliding scale whatever you want to give, so no worries.

I believe Chris will be at that one so you should locate him and get one!

Any plan to try 'selling' some of these at UK shows?

This is something we could do if we have people in the UK willing to "sell" them at shows and not steal all the money.

confirmed. will be at DC, york, bowery I, bowery III, and philly. given that i find somewhere to print out decent quality artwork before leaving thursday morning, i will have copies in tow.

we will definitely be posting everything online, so if you can't make it and/or are happy with the digital files and a pdf of the artwork, it'll be up ASAP. i will ship a physical copy to anyone who wants it.

I'd buy one if they are in Toronto

Neglected to give anyone any info for tonight. I'm at 9:30 club, beige mag fields tote bag, glasses, if you see me I've got copies. Will prob have same bag tomorrow night.

So, when will this go online?

I'd love to know this myself. The mini-site is all ready to go, but I still haven't seen/heard the actual tunes. I'll post a download link if/once I get the files from Chris.

Really looking forward to hearing this myself. I've had the excruciating job of reading you all's descriptions without being able to listen to the songs, haha!

speaking of the site....

It's a good thing I ran into daniellescomment last night at the NYC show, I haven't been on the forum regularly and forgot about this project, and that I had registered the URL. As of last night the domain was going to expire tomorrow but I went on this morning and renewed it for another 2 years with auto-renew on.

hooray! thanks!

Just wanna say-- props to danielle and christopher for keeping this going. Sorry that everything got all haggard last year, but I'm really really glad that this happened this year. Can't wait to hear it, and will most definitely be donating when the time comes (seeing as I denied the FS rep who called me today asking for money ).

it was actually 2 7"s btw and the mastering date was 5/1, I cancelled it this a.m.

This is why you should be nice to everyone.

I've got the songs from Chris! I will prep the files and artwork and have them uploaded asap! I'll let you all know when it's ready.

Also, I have 6 physical copies of the comp. I'll bring them to the radio recording today at 2 and then any extra to the Bowery tonight.

here is a picture of what I look like (except my hair won't be curly.....and I probably won't be eating a doughnut.


Feel free to come up and grab a copy and donate!

edit: whoa, sorry this picture is so huge!

I was wondering the same thing, I'm going as well and would love to grab one

We are the ones who don't slow down at all...

hmm, if anyone at Bowery tonight wants to take any extra up with them, I'm cool with it. DOnation money can just be sent back to me via check or money order then.
