Billy Transferring 60+ Demo tapes for future vinyl release

[workingdogv1]

That gets me a little more excited about these. I mean, I would have listened anyway, but it makes me consider buying some. I'd really like to hear the weird concept album, just for curiosity's sake.

Schroeder said there are those moments that you hear in a certain piece or way of playing guitar and you go, “Ah, I can hear it coming.” That part is cool. I’ll even hear stuff that I was doing at like 18 that is on Oceania. Personally, I find that cool because I think wow I had enough of a voice at 18 - not singing, I mean artistically—that it’s still intact all these years later. It’s a bit like bird watching through music, mostly instrumental. I’m probably over explaining it, but did I answer your question?

Maybe it's just his artistic voice has regressed that much.

everything comes from other sources; nothing original or new on it.

yea that's the one, i just messed up the title.

all things considered, how's the fidelity on it? i always kind of wanted a copy but i imagined the sound quality being horrible and tinny and just all around terrible.

August 7

I’d anticipate the first release to come sometime in the next 2-3 months

any minute now

We all know that any time frame Billy projects ends up being at least five times as long in practice.

I always assume nothing is coming out ever

That track list though

The best part of that picture is the fact that even as early as then, Billy made sure to point out who wrote and did what, going so far as to HAND WRITE CREDITS IN THE LINER NOTES OF A DEMO. Who does that?

transfers are almost complete of my 60 + 4-track demos tapes; and to that I plan on offering a multi-edition vinyl set which if I’m guessing correct will in the end have anywhere from 12 to 20 separate releases. So please do keep an eye out for those, as they’ll be releases this year.

This is Billy's attempt at humor. Sarcasm doesn't translate very well in writing and we all know Billy has an odd sense of humor anyways to say the least.

That's the smart way to go. Hope for the best but expect the worst.

Can't he give us more vault concerts than some moldy old demos?

I thought a huge problem with SPFC was that there was no time/manpower to do stuff like this

Since I'm part of the targeted consumers of this release, I'll probably bite anyway.

But what do you folks think are the chances this LP set will be available without $50 in tea?
My hopes are pretty low now that they even sell the new album in a package.

[redbull]

i don't think this LP set will be available at all

[Rider]

These won't come out and Billy will blame the leaks.

[T&T]

imminent announcement of announcement of imminent release.

[myosis]

i just realized i can never order any special edition set because customs will seize the teabags and charge me another extra 50 for processing

Montes been dreaming about a teabag from Billy for decades.

but srsly, we know he was a careerist from the start; perhaps he saw that these songs would one day be released in some money-making format and he had to clear up who gets what cut of it. i wouldn't put it past him.

[Modern90's]

maybe thats what the pre-gish shit will be now. but weve been waiting on that one since when? 2013?
