I plan on pre-ordering this very soon!

Got mine a week ago with the Ruby shirt. Such a good idea to all involved.

ordered. really glad you guys are doing this!
also this show was awesome & I'm looking forward to seeing which tracks make their way onto it.

Hopefully be making an order soon.
Would I be able to make two orders; one for everything else with a discount code, and then this without the code? Realise you guys have got more common sense than most, and so would put them together to be shipped, but just wanna make sure...?

yeah, no sweat. we'll refund the additional shipping you'll be charged as well. just make a comment in paypal when you checkout.

Do you guys get the money from the shipping that you'd usually refund?
As in, could you keep it or does it go towards the actual shipping?

Any word on when we might be able to hear a couple of the songs from it?

Been on Chris about it like crazy. Still waiting on a few things. He's busting his ass to get everything sounding good. We'll be releasing all the audio from the entire night as a download soon. It's a lot of work on everyone's end so I appreciate everyone being patient with us. We want it to be as good as possible.

Just done my two orders

audio is all mixed by chris!

Awesome! Can't wait to hear the songs from the sets

I've started getting individual tracks from bands. We're like 75% of the way through having an audio master for this.

awesome. will buy when i get my next check!

Any updates?

Juan's print will be in our hands on August 8th (Comadre touring in Japan slowed his progress some).

I've got final tracks from everyone now.

We had to re-record the Slingshot Dakota & Snowing sets at the Philly Mitch benefit because the audio was too bad from their MHTJ final gig sets.

Chris has sent me everything for audio and we're gonna upload full sets for each band (in their uninterrupted entirety) soon! I'm openly taking suggestions on how people would prefer we upload these... Mediafire? Megaupload? etc.?

Ben also went on tour to Europe for a bit and I've been slow to get him copy for the album art with how much Topshelf has going on right now.

This isn't something that we expected to turn around quickly (with having so many people who have such active projects going on and all) but things ARE moving along, so please bear with us as we piece it all together. At this point, the project has broken even and alllll proceeds go to the Dubey's so please continue to spread the word!

Also, for those who missed it, here's Ben's illustration:

I've started and restarted and scrapped and liked and hated and redone mine like seven times now. Gonna have something soon.

I'll let Derrick chime in on his own about where his is at. But last I bugged him he was still working on it.

If you did bandcamp you could have the possibility of additional donations, plus bandcamp rules. The only problem would be that there's a limited amount of downloads per month. I just want to stream these jams at work i guess

The files are massive and really long... any idea if there are any constraints on that?

Hostage Calm's set is 349 MB and IIOI's is 438 MB for example...

I didn't mean for that to sound snobby haha, just curious!

As for how everything looks to accompany the vinyl, this is all great! This was such a killer idea.



...and I'm a BIT surprised those aren't middle fingers haha
