and coasters!

And marbles. Don't forget the marbles.
― Tarfumes The Escape Goat, Tuesday, 11 October 2011 20:35 (twelve years ago) link
And...are those trading cards?
― The Man With The Flavored Toothpick (C. Grisso/McCain), Tuesday, 11 October 2011 20:37 (twelve years ago) link
how cool would it be to just relax w/ your scarf, your marbles and trading cards while listening to the floyd. someday.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 11 October 2011 20:44 (twelve years ago) link
It seems like a glaring oversight that it doesn't include anything that could be used as a delivery system.
― Tarfumes The Escape Goat, Tuesday, 11 October 2011 20:47 (twelve years ago) link
The yet to be announced A.H.M. Immersion set will come with a Lazy Susan for your own "Psychedelic Breakfast" and it will rule.

I think for later Immersion they should consult some of the goods on this fine thread.
btw PINK FLOYD RULES

Saw some pink floyd t-shirts that are actually cool. More clothing stores should do the full print thing on t-shirts looks way better than having a black tee with a simple square album cover printed on the center (unless it's a PF album cover, in which case it rules no matter how it's printed)

Okay, so The Wall also sounds amazing with the current remastering. Did any of these end up sounding "just ok" so I can avoid buying them all?

I'm a "piper should be only listened to in mono" purist so you can skip that one

though they're planning an immersion version of that too
― the boy with the gorn at his side (Edward III), Friday, 14 October 2011 17:31 (twelve years ago) link
I have that nice Piper stereo/mono/singles thing from a few years ago so I'm good with that. Tempted to just keep my mono Saucer mp3s too.

I played the "alternate" Matilda Mother to Alice, and she immediately recognised the words from her copy of Hilaire Beloc's Cautionary tales.
She's well read, our Alice.

I kind of think they should milk Floyd fans with lots of different ways to get this stuff. I mean, I'm not going to ever shell out $100+ for the immersion boxes but I would plunk down for the disc of outtakes released as a standalone in a heartbeat.
― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Friday, 14 October 2011 17:36 (twelve years ago) link
Good on Alice!
I too would like to get the tunes minus a scarf and trading cards. Regardless, right now "Waiting For The Worms" is owning my ass.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 14 October 2011 17:45 (twelve years ago) link
I would plunk down for the disc of outtakes released as a standalone in a heartbeat.
Ditto. The fact that you have to spend $150 minimum just to get two Household Objects songs (one on the DSOTM immersion set, one on the WYWH experience set) does not rule.
― Tarfumes The Escape Goat, Friday, 14 October 2011 17:48 (twelve years ago) link
will the audience convene at one fifteen outside brixton town hall where we will be

when I was a kid I thought the "reds" in "waiting for the worms" was a slur on native americans
― the boy with the gorn at his side (Edward III), Friday, 14 October 2011 17:53 (twelve years ago) link

― the boy with the gorn at his side (Edward III), Friday, 14 October 2011 17:54 (twelve years ago) link
first time i heard a lot of those slurs -- queers, coons -- was on that album. uncle rog was telling his nieces and nephews the world can be one shitty place

"And that one's got SPOTS!" … again, The Wall was quite the comedy album for me and the other fourth-graders.
― Pleasant Plains, Friday, 14 October 2011 18:06 (twelve years ago) link
I thought he meant like "I'm seein' spots!" in the manner of Looney Tunes or something.

and another with spots!if i had my way, i'd have all o' you shot!

you guys

me too! don't know what i should do.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:19 (twelve years ago) link
you should rule, too, obviously.
If they start following me too I'll let you know.

are there any bloggers in the audience tonight?GET EM UP AGAINST THE WALL
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 19:46 (twelve years ago) link
yes. has anyone umm, found that last DSOTM immersion disc, ummm anywhere? ummm.
Yes. The entire box can (could) be found online. Lossless, even.
The Household Objects song is a bit daft. No substance at all. The Richard Wright and Roger Waters demos are very beautiful. The early mix of DSOTM is interesting to listen too once, but the final version of the album is better in many, many ways. The Travel Sequence and Morality Sequence tracks are already known from many bootlegs. And rule!
― Sebastian (Royal Mermaid Mover), Friday, 14 October 2011 19:52 (twelve years ago) link
i've been hooked up by someone who obviously rules. listening to the alt mix. so weird to not have the lady singer on greatest gig. i mean, i'd heard the early live versions without that, but the studio version is something else altogether.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:18 (twelve years ago) link
ugh, also redonkulous that on a big huge $100+ immersion set, they can't put out a full, live early version of DSOTM. obviously available on bootlegs, but in mostly cruddy audience recordings. the live "travel/mortality" sequences sound rad here. what shows are they from, the rainbow gigs?
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:54 (twelve years ago) link
is that the "in the celebration of the comet" one? w/the thing from fantastic 4 on the cover?
i have that in my office on vinyl right now? how much does that go for?
― the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 14 October 2011 20:57 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i think that's from the rainbow shows. i will pay you at least a million dollars for that.
kinda digging the household objects snippet. slight, maybe, but it still rules.
― tylerw, Friday, 14 October 2011 20:58 (twelve years ago) link
I was happy to hear that snippet too, but I think they were right to abandon the idea.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 14 October 2011 21:07 (twelve years ago) link
got the big new Wish box here now, going to go through it this weekend. RULES.
also has anyone heard these newly remastered Dark Side and Wish vinyl releases? They are absolutely fantastic, have never heard these albums sound so good.
