Wow........WOW!!!!!
TO, this is one beautiful project. From the incredible music, to the amazing packaging, to the great liner notes, to the awesome purpose of the project.....I can't say enough good things!! I'll definately be telling my friends & relatives about this! And I love what Theo did with his song -- big difference from the "Suffer The Children" EP (and *that* was amazing). I like this version that much more.
Kudos all the way around. Theo should be proud of his "baby". I am happy also to see TST give a special thanks to Jeff Elbel.

Well I just ordered mine and I can't wait to get it.
So tell me are the Mike Knott and Mike Roe songs good?
I'm always looking for more new stuff from my favorite Mikes.

The reviews of this sound awesome. I would love to order it today but as it is, I have 3 things on order from the webstore for which I have been waiting for some time and they still have not come. On top of that, when I send emails to inquire about my orders I don't get any reply.
I think this "support the band because we are all one big happy family" thing is nice but it seems to be a one-way street. The only 'family resemblance' I can see is that placing an order at the webstore is like loaning money to your deadbeat brother-in-law. Who knows when, or if, you will ever get it back.
And, yes, I am in a bad mood today. But I still want (and deserve to get) what I have already paid for.

The Mike Roe song is not a new song. It was on Demonstrations Of Love.

All regular orders are going out now - we're pretty quickly getting caught up. This problem has been posted on the store page, by the way - so you shouldn't have been surprised about not getting a response immediately.
The entire cause of this current mess (being behind on email and orders) was caused by the fan clubs and Prickly Heat. The fan clubs have really out-grown the way we've been doing them... in the past, we just did it on the side with whatever little free time we had. Over the last couple of months, we had to do all three fan clubs at once + the Prickly Heat discs + regular store orders + other CD work that was sent our way. It was way too much.
We are making arrangements to make sure this never happens again. We'll probably post details soon.

Probably not yet, but will be soon. I'm currently working on everything that was held up all the way up to today's date for the DA store. All of that should be shipped out within a few more days.

Any unshipped late May or June orders started shipping as soon as we got home from Cstone.. should have the last of those shipped out within a couple of days. We're working overtime on this to get them out as fast as possible.

I agree with both of you.
Got mine from TheoLand Saturday, and have been digging on it since. It very much has a Terry-solo vibe to it (some of which is obvious, having several TST solo tunes on it from him & others)....

In one of our earliest planning sessions, Terry and I discussed our akin desire to have the heart of K&I on this project. And whadda know--my first stop was to record my songs with Terry and Rob Watson. From there on out, Terry and Rob worked very closely together. Terry says the old magic was right there once again. Rob's fingerprints are ALL over this thing.

It goes both ways when we send free tshirts... send free CDs.. do things like the Prickly Heat or Hodgepodge discs which do not necessarily make the guys a lot of money, but make something interesting available to you. Or the fan club discs... they definitely do not make the guys a lot of money, takes countless hours to put together - especially difficult in the face of the other work we have to do - all to make music available to you that otherwise would not be. If we were just about making money - these things would never happen.

There has never been an order placed that was not shipped. Most of the year, orders are shipped within 24 hours. We are behind now because of the fan club stuff and Prickly Heat. We were behind for a little while at the beginning of the year because our father was in the hospital. You are forgetting an awful lot of history if you are claiming that we are always behind. That would be an absurd claim.
It's sort of like the complainer that is upset that Prickly Heat was so late and says something like "Everything you guys ever release is late"... forgetting that 12 out of the 14 major DA/Dogs/TST/77s releases in the last year were either on time or early.
