rugen Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Why another remastered version of 2112 available in December? What's wrong with the original Lp and the other cd versions out in the past years? Is it another way of making money on Rush fans? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Billy Talent? I guess they are only invited as they are Canadian...but...I dunno...the high pitched vocals might work but what an odd lineup for those covers. I won't be buying this. Very confused by the point of this release so soon after the last reissue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catherine Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) Retirement Fund. Yep. Hate to sound cynical but that's how it smells to me too. I am interested to hear the Steven Wilson cover of Twilight Zone though. ;) Edited November 4, 2016 by catherine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassMasterGeneral Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 One of the editions comes with a skateboard... Now, of course, I'm not judging, but I feel like the majority of Rush fans are a little past the threshold to start skating, lmfao 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnoble Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I would've liked a 30th anniversary deluxe edition of Hemispheres 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) I believe all the "anniversary" releases are record company prompted. Let's face it, every single album release is a cash grab of some type. The music business is in the business of selling products. It shouldn't be a reflection on the artist. You don't like it? You can't afford it? Don't buy it. Edited November 5, 2016 by ReRushed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) I already help so many rock artists' retirement funds and after all I see no reason why I should not help this Canadian guys as well....It remains their worst release ever anyway.

Fordgalaxy Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) $$$$$$$Cha-ching$$$$$$$ One of these days, after the completists are dead and gone, their kids or grandkids are going to be stuck with a whole lot of the same things that will end up in a landfill somewhere because no one will want it. Think about that the next time there is a remaster, or re-release of something you already have 2 or 3 of.

blueschica Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) * Starman Turntable MatWhat's a turntable mat? This is the best photo I could find of one. The turntable itself is metal-the steel rotating part with the dots around the edge. You wouldn't put your vinyl on just that, so they come with a floppy rubber mat (the one here says Audio-technica) that sits on top of them and that is where you actually put your record. (OK, the one in the photo might be felt fabric . . .) I grew up with stereos/vinyl/turntables and never even thought of the mat as being a separate thing; I've never even thought about it until your question. Kind of a genius marketing move on someone's part ! :D http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp338/plantfan40/3321302ld.jpg Edited November 5, 2016 by blueschica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAccountant Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Not certain if I will get this. I have the album on vinyl & CD. The part about the footage from a 1976 concert at the Capital Theatre interests me however. If its just one song it may not tempt me enough. If its a good portion of a show, now thats an entire different matter. If it was basically ATWAS (or at least most of it) on DVD, in decent quality, than I would definitely contribute to the guys retirement fun and buy this.

I've seen that complete set before; I want to say it was 35-40 minutes long, something like that. I would so totally buy this whole set. There's not much in the world of Rush merch and reissue onslaught that I have gone for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been on YouTube for years.It is a full show, but a support slot. Basically sides 1 and 2 of ATWAS minus Something For Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
