Hey guys, I've been lurking around here for a while and figured I would let you know that I found a store doing pre-orders for the "Friends Again" 7".
Every place I went to in NYC either said that they were doing first come/first or that they weren't getting it.
I found another place outside of the city that is doing pre-orders via their webpage. I just finished buying a few copies for myself. I'm so stoked.

Thanks!

good stuff! purchased!
Purchased. Thank you. Now I won't have to have a panic attack on my flight to NYC Tuesday.
this store isn't going to know what hit them come tomorrow morning ;D
Strange shipping options. You have to pay 2 bucks to pick it up yourself at the store?

Good shit man. I love Looney Tunes, been there a bunch and its definitely the best record/CD store I've come across on LI. I wasn't even gonna try to find one of these, but you did all the hard work for me so thanks again! This is going to be the first vinyl I own and I could see it becoming quite the addiction.
Thank you so much for posting this. :thumbsup:

just realized this is the "shipping" option i picked for them to ship to nyc. we'll see what happens.
Thank you!
When are these going to be shipped? contacted my local record store (Dave's Records in Chicago) and they said they ordered it but don't know if they will get them or when they will come in...
boom!!
ordered...
thanks so much! still gonna try to get a few from my local store in case some folks get screwed like they always do
see folks, the lurkers have a purpose too!
The cost of shipping to my country is double the price of the record ;D
Oooooh! :D Ordered one, woohoo! Thank you so much for sharing! :thumbsup:
Good looking out, stuck.
FYI, I just talked to the owner and they are getting in 175. There are about 100 left. He was very helpful and asked us to spread the word. Also, they will likely ship out on Monday.
followed up with the shop regarding the $2 shipping option and had to pony up another 3.99 for them to ship to nyc.
I bought two. My shipping was the same amount as the records themselves. Worth into not have to worry about rushing around when I get to new york
Hey guys, just as a reference, this is my local store and I do most of my shopping here. They are the BEST local indie record store on Long Island (maybe including NYC) and I highly recommend them. I spoke with the owner last night when I reserved and ordered my copies and he told me he would sell out by saturday. Based on the responses in this thread, he will sell out by the end of today (if he hasn't already).

Oh man, I just can't pull the plug on that kind of shipping. It sticks in my craw. And I don't even know what a "craw" is.
$5.99 for 2-5 Weeks? Are you effing serious. No thanks.
(My fave local is not carrying it :'()

And 3 bucks to pick it up in the store! I don't get that :-\ but I've ordered it anyway!
Great find! Just picked one up. Thanks for the heads up!
Thanks! Not a fan of the shipping, but ordered 2 anyway. Now to decide who gets the other one...
I used to work for a record store in Concord, NH. They said they couldn't get it, but the owner called today... My wife works in Concord and handed me this 5 minutes ago...

Awesome to hear that we're going to get the convenience of the digital format.
This is available on Vintage Vinyl's website now:

They charge a flat $5.99 shipping rate, too.
Friends Again is a live recording from... T5? Sounds pretty #$%#%# good! I was kinda hoping to hear a studio version, figured they would have tried it during the Circuital sessions, but alas...

Not sure if that's Jim on lead vocals. Probably.
Fun.
Yep, its Jim.
Is it different lyrics? I'm so jealous that I can't hear these until next sunday

Pretty much the same lyrics. Kinda reminds me of this classic

Where are you hearing that "Friends Again" is a live recording from T5? I haven't seen that anywhere yet... Have you already heard it???
One people already got it
My bad. I understand now. I was reading the thread backwards up from the bottom and got disoriented and didn't realize johnnYYac had it in hand. My apologies. Rookie mistake.
Wow...I can not wait to put that on my TT. Looks really cool. What does the back of the sleeve look like?
big thanks to headhunter BTW :beer:
Today I found out that a local store will be selling them Monday (Better Days for louisvillians) if anyone is still looking I can pick one up
vinylrip? can't wait for mine to come but i'll prob be in ny already when it comes :-\
Should have waited to snag one with the $5.99 shipping (rather than $20 shipping) but oh well...this will sound excellent in the Wurlitzer, its new permanent home. Probably gotta try it on the new Rega TT too though. I feel spoiled.
2 things... if anyone opted out of the ridiculous shipping charges, I will be able to pick some up on sunday or monday. anyone need one, just PM me. looks like regardless of what happens i'll have 3 copies. oops ::)
second, is this the first song that has been officially released live only? I can't think of any other ones off the top of my head...

Dear Wife... depending on if you count the iTunes Live at The Palms EP as a "Live" release.
Just ordered mine from Vintage Vinyl. I am glad they come with a download card because I have no way to play vinyl - I just had to buy it to support the guys. I cannot wait to hear this.

If you're thinking about going towards listening to vinyl I recommend some options on amazon.com. I got a nice set up for around $150. It is a great way to enjoy your favorite music.
Jealous you guys got it already. I'm still hoping I can find a local source...
Picked up a copy today (for only $5.24) - my download code was missing
Anyone out there have a mp3 of it i can listen to before i get my actual album in the mail ? dying to hear a studio version of this
Can anybody suggest somewhere to order it from in the UK? All the shops I've looked at at http://www.recordstoreday.com/Venues?country=United+Kingdom&venue= (http://www.recordstoreday.com/Venues?country=United+Kingdom&venue=) don't list it.
Just snagged a copy. Looks like the mp3 code isnt setup yet.
So for those who have listened is the crowd drowned out like Dear Wife?

If you're referring to Friends Again, I'm almost certain this version on the 7" came from the live performance on the last night of the Terminal 5 shows last October. You can hear the outro from Circuital, played just before, and some crowd noise. Its definitely a live version. I was hoping for a studio version, as well.

You can hear the crowd. Also, Dear Wife didn't have an audience, it was recorded live in studio at the palms.
Thank you! just ordered it!!!!

Never mind....sorry for being a bitch. This live version sounds great.
Nikkogino, I understand where you're coming from - I was disappointed at first too when I found out it was a live version. I was really looking forward to having a studio version of "Friends Again". I have been since I first saw the grainy, low quality videos of them playing it way back when they were working on the new album that would be Circuital. And then when it came out and "Friends Again" wasn't on it I was bummed. As someone who enjoyed Circuital a lot but felt it was missing something, when I heard about this release I thought I was finally getting it.
All of that being said, this live version is absolutely killer. It sounds amazing and, while you can hear the audience, it is a great recording where you can clearly hear the band and the various instruments, and the sound of the audience doesn't interfere with the song at all. At least not in my opinion. They are just kind of there softly at the beginning and end of the song. It is so much better than the decent-quality recording I previously had that it's not even funny. And I am only talking about the MP3 download that comes with this thing, I don't even have a way to play vinyl yet. I can only imagine how glorious the vinyl sounds.
I got mine today shipped from the Looney Tunes store.They really did a good job shipping out same day like they said they would.It's a very nice collectors item and didn't mind paying the shipping cause there's not an indie record store within miles from here.
I am pretty much a n00b when it comes to vinyl, but how warped is too warped? As it revolves there is a petty good gap between the record and the slip mat. My copy plays just fine, but the arm is definitely bobbing to the music...
Does anyone know how many were in this pressing?
I'm just wondering how "limited" this record is. I picked up a couple from my local indie store, finally, and there are 4 or 5 left over there.
I have the impression it's a number bigger than one might expect for something called "limited".

If you can listen to it without skips or jumps than it is not too warped.
If it wont track properly and does jump, then it is definitely too warped.

It plays fine. Thanks!
Anyone know who does the backing vocals on Outta My System, or any recording info on this?
