I have already bought the Best Buy edition of Zeitgeist (I love Death From Above; sue me). But I'm debating whether or not to buy the "special deluxe" edition. Best Buy has it for under $25. Is the 76-page book anything special (especially compared to the standard liner notes that I already have)? Also, some places/websites are calling it "limited." Is it truly limited? And if so, how limited?

Essentially, is it worth my money for any reason?

my god we've talked this to death.


yes buy it. it will change your life. no one on this board has regretted it and its so special deluxe you might need to buy it again.

if you're such a stickler for your dollar, you'll probably find plenty of reason to be disappointed.

Only a crazy person would buy more than one copy.

i have free mp3 downloads, and since i illegally download music, i used my free mp3 downloads on puretracks to buy zeitgeist a second time to support b0lly

Smashing Pumpkins - ZEITGEIST IN STORES NOW!

I must be crazy. The booklet is awesome. Splurge for it while you can...

Why not just by the booklet version then? I also think its psychotic to buy two of what is essentially the same item. Just pick one and stick with it.

i bought the book. my girlfriend, who is a graphic designer, was kind of let down at first glimpse while i was flipping through it. she then picked it up and started to comment on how well it was all put together. she was really impressed at the use of vellum (her favorite medium) in the book and said she finally understood the album after looking at the book.

Because apparently its cool to have things wrapped in original plastic and dust sitting on top of the mantle. Fuck, ive been a SP fan since I was 10 years old, the year Siamese Dream came out......they were literally the first band I ever even cared for and I would never find myself buying something Pumpkins and never enjoying it....for it to just sit and rot (all the while trying to convince yourself that it was worth the extra $25 so you could listen to one copy while staring at the other).

Stupid

Sounds very similar to my experience. It was much better when I picked it up again this morning...

but did she smell it?

the only person i know that bought it is dissappointed cause it doesn't fit anywhere, its fairly cheap looking and its boring after you flip through it. be happy that best buy had DFA, unlike shitty canadian best buy. that will be my first and last cd purchased at that black hole

calling all nerds!

It's so good, you'll wanna make out it. But won't cause your scared of papercuts. Why ask? You know you NEED it. You can't live without. 5 years from now you'll ask yourself why you didn't buy if you don't run to the store right now. :rolleyes:

ishe was really impressed at the use of vellum (her favorite medium)

Im hard just thinking of vellum

Wow, what active forums. I'm new here, and on some messageboards I'm lucky if I get one reply after a day of waiting, let alone such a massive-ass list of replies after a few hours.

That being said....it seems that the people who say "no" don't have a lot of backup, and the people who say "yes," well, I can't tell if they're serious or sarcastic. "You'll want to make out with it" is hardly reassuring ;P.

I'm happy with my CDR.

me too - itunes for the code, and a pack of cd-r's for the boots.

hard-ass!

i think i lack the mental capacity to figure out what the pictures have to do with the songs. nah i just don't feel like thinking about it.

can she explain it to me

i have no idea what you just said.

man, crackin the same joke again. keep it comin mccririck. its not getting old or anything, and its making you look like a quality poster at the same time!

This is getting ridiculous.

A'ight, I'm gonna make this simple by rephrasing my question:

Does the 76-page book have lots more Paris Hilton pics that I'm missing out on? 'Cause that's the only reason I was ever a Pumpkins fan. For Paris Hilton photos. So if they're in there, I need to buy it.

[/sarcasm]

it's got one where she's looking more, you know, pensive.

oh wait that's in the standard booklet too. forget it then.

how bout that picture in the booklet of the girl with the bleeding tit....

Yep, she's pretty smexeh

how bout that picture in the booklet of the girl with the bleeding tit....
remember when that leaked MONTHS ago, like way before those thiegs stole the other pics, and everyone was like FAKE!

i wish that photo of corgan with those sluts was in the booklet.

The 76-page book has one page where there are a bunch of pics of her holding her boobs right? =P
