Came in the post this morning from the Recordstore. Shame I don't have a turntable although Mastercard might help me remedy that this afternoon!! Townsend have taken the cash for the CD/tshit combo so I hope that comes tomorrow.
Anyone else got their pre-orders yet?

Nope not yet! But i preordered through CD-wow, and I think they will only send it on the 28th..
Is there a lyric booklet with the vinyl? Could you maybe post some pics?
I'm thinking of buying the vinyl as well. For now I only ordered the CD+DVD

Dunno how to post pics but there are some lyrics just not in full. It's Gatefold and the two sleeves inside have a collage on each side with a quarter of each dedicated to the relevant songs on that side of the vinyl with some pics and some selected lines. The inside of the Gatefold says "Different Gear" in red on the left and "Still Speeding" on the right but with a moddish target behind it.
Would never in a million(aire) years have got that the first few lines of that tune (they're on the lyrics thread) without seeing them in print. Guess it's just the same as the Japanese booklet but bigger.
Can't play it (yet) but it looks good on the shelf!

I received an email yesterday that my CD was in the mail. I pre-ordered from the US distributor- Dangerbird Records.

Got my Vinyl and CD/DVD today. Not the ones I ordered from the BE store, but from CDON.com. Still waiting for the BE order to see if there's a difference. But these vinyl records felt like about 180g, don't know what weight the limited print will be. Only have my shitty iPhone camera right now, but I'll try to upload some better photos later today. www.flickr.com/photos/victorberglund/sets/72157626009761681/Can't remember what it said, but there was some fun stuff "engraved" on the vinyl. Gonna upload some better photos later today.

Anyone in the States get theirs yet? I preordered a while back, and just now was I billed for the gear. Hoping for a Monday/Tuesday delivery.

Anyone got their limited LP ordered through the BE website yet? Seems like some people got it delivered today! Any difference with the regular LP that can be bought in shops?

I've got my Vinyl through today from the official beady eye store, but how can I tell if it's any different? It's got a label on the front saying limited edition heavyweight vinyl but that's about it.

It's got a label on the front saying limited edition heavyweight vinyl but that's about it. That's what mine said too, so it's probably the exact same. Oh well, can't hurt to have one extra copy...
