Roll Call Wild Honey/Hopefully Vinyl

[MMJCOBRA]

Hey guys, I'm kind of pissed off that long time roll callers like myself were unable to get the 7 w/ hopefully.

That was my hometown show and I was front and center for it.  See dork face in the light blue t-shirt!

Anyways, I would dearly love to obtain a copy of the roll call 7 inch with hopefully since this recording was taken from this show. About the only thing I have to trade would be the friends again 7 inch, or a superbowl shuffle 7. Or I could gift one of you fine folks a roll call membership for 2016.

Sorry for the whine and kind regards.

can some kind soul at least rip the 2 songs to MP3 format and offer to PM a drop box link?

I too am exhausted with Blunderful being non-responsive - many (including myself) have talked to band members about this directly (in person).  It's kind of frustrating and embarrassing to shift what could be a once-in-a-lifetime conversation over to something like "I'm a huge fan of yours, but your most important vendor sucks and treats us poorly".  Really surprised it's continued this long - we'll see I guess.

The only thing keeping me a member is the pending OBH3 announcement and need for priority access to tickets through C9.  If it weren't for that, there's no value to BU (other than getting a laminate, poster and warped record in exchange for shipping costs inflated 400%?).  And not for nothing, fan club tour ticket access means nothing when other third parties provide more and better tickets before public onsale (Gilt, Amex, Groupon, etc.)

Where is the value proposition, WU?

I would love to get a digital copy of this also.

Anybody??

Edit: A 7" would be better (Ha Ha) if anyone would like to trade something, or sell theirs.

I was expecting the bonus as well but ended up with 2 copies of the regular. I'm pretty passive about this stuff, but it still sucks.

Does anybody have info on how many of these where pressed?

I was wondering the same thing. They had to have made more than the exact amount for people that bought the extra Roll Call coverage. There has to be an outlet for the extra copies I'm sure are sitting on a shelf somewhere. Good luck getting answers.

I did the chat thing with WU and clearly stated how I can't see how this flub could happen:
"Adam - Wondeful Union
I cannot say what would have possessed a specific person to purchase the new deluxe bundle once it was released if their membership was already valid but I can only speculate that it is because they collect all of the items from each years bundle so they would have wanted the 2015 merch items from that new bundle such as the t-shirts etc. It was not advertised that they would receive a secondary 2015 vinyl just that they would receive 2. The band decided later in the year when it was time to press them to do the secondary 2015 vinyl."

not only incompetent, but smug and insulting as well?!?!

priceless

Will some kind soul (I know there are many here) PLEASE furnish me with a digital copy of this? I can swap any of the other R/C 7's digital if you like. Thanks!

...just enough to piss you off:

Enough to piss me off...IM FURIOUS!!! Not at you TheRoof, THANK YOU for putting that up and FU TO WU for not getting Roll Call fans, who shell out their hard earned dollars, a copy of this. Post something clearly LIKE "Hey buy this and you'll get another 7" " and I guarantee roll callers would/will SHELL OUT MORE $$$ to get it!!! RIDICULOUS !?! And to add insult to injury I'm a massive Fruit Bats/EDJ fan, have all their vinyl and see them as much as possible which was difficult, considering they broke up for a while, and EDJ just did very few shows solo for a bit.

Good news is Fruit Bats is touring again and have a new LP"Absolute loser" coming out on
Easy Sound records. So WOOHOO TO FRUIT BATS & FU to WU! Gettin sick of wasting money on tshirts that are the wrong size, laminents venues have no idea about, buying short term membership for nothing and buying long term ones and getting the shaft. I'm not being unreasonable. You're job is to run a bands fan club. And its not a cheap fan club. We pay a decent amount of money for the perks (which for a large portion of us means the 7")that come with being in this fan club. It's customer service, which you suck at. Do your job. Plain and simple.

Try not to let this get the best of you, guys.  I don't know the details, not sure why they would offer a different version of the 7" (which is arguably superior to the other) and only offer it to certain fans, but at the end of the day it's only 2 songs that we will eventually be able to grab digitally anyway.  Many of us get to go see them play in a month or two anyway.  Spring is here.  All is truly good.
