Apparently Branca is now open to suggestions on TikTok. Wasn't that just the person that runs his tiktok liking a post in the comments? I'm not on TikTok so I'm not sure how it goes. But I heard he's asking for suggestions and what fans want.

Regarding my SACD, I pre-ordered it from HHV.de back in July. It was supposed to ship on November 18, but they told me they were going to have a one week delay. As of yesterday it still hasn't shipped. They now wrote to me:
"Unfortunately due to the high volume of orders there are delays. It might. take a bit longer for the delivery. We apologize for any inconvenience."
Those who ordered from Amazon also have this same problem. I guess there are some issues with how retailers are supplied.

Somehow I don't think Branca is trying to reach out to the real longterm fanbase if TikTok is his medium of choice. Are casinos big amongst TikTok users? Perhaps.

Top 10 in the US. Not bad.

I hope we are all still around in 10 years for Thriller 50, assuming this was a throwaway release to keep something in the vault to wow the public for the 50th anniversary.
It has been really enjoyable speculating, discussing and arguing about Thriller 40 this past year. It really is nice to be able to discuss a release again. The majority of us haven't seen MJ the Musical (yet, at least) so we really haven't had anything to dissect. The allegations obviously had an impact but if the charts are anything to go by, MJ is slowly but surely getting back there despite his legacy remaining largely in tact. It is nice to see chart success for a poorly advertised and thrown together project for a re-re-re-release.
I'm actually still listening to Thriller 40, quite a lot. I can't help but think that Hot Street and Niteline would have really made this a CD of material that would trounce the Bad 25 disc. Something to look forward to in 10 years hopefully.
We are a peculiar little group here. Passionate for sure. That makes the discussions more enjoyable too.

It’s been over a week now.

I cancelled the Divine Symmetry Bowie set and will probably get the MOFI LP now.
I'm intrigued as to how this could sound any better than the original LP....
Why does money have to be so rare?

Out of curiosity, what's the average price people have been spending on the One-Step pressing vinyl?

About €142 with shipping (€135 the record itself).
