Eddie has confirmed that presales can only be online and not in person.

In person purchase are general sale only.

This concludes today's concert lesson for the day. :)

I wise person above mentioned that no way in hell that they took a presale password at the ticket window!

Will be looking forward to listening to this:

‘THE BEATLES: GET BACK-THE ROOFTOP PERFORMANCE’
Complete, Newly Mixed Audio To Debut For Global Streaming

The Beatles’ Legendary 1969 Rooftop Concert Audio is Newly Mixed by Giles Martin and Sam Okell in Stereo and Dolby Atmos

The inclusion of Dolby ATMOS is interesting to me.  When watching the video of a live performance with ATMOS, your mind understands the movement of the sound because you can physically see where the sound is coming from on the screen.  When just listening, I do wonder if I'm going to appreciate it as much or just find it annoying.  Will have to check it out tomorrow as 9PM is too late to night to crank it up.   

I don't have an Atmos setup but I got the Sgt Pepper 50th anniversary box set and listened to the album in 5.1 and it was pretty freaking cool.

I like when people claim other streaming services have better sound quality as they stream through their computer and Bluetooth speakers.

Is the box office even open at 10AM when they start?
. That being said most of the time general ticket sales start at 10AM  but our box office opens at 12PM M-F

I know MPP ticket office stopped selling tickets for shows the first day of the sale a while ago.  Not sure if this is true.  this sucked because if you wanted to guarantee yourself a ticket to a sure-thing sell-out, you now had to go through the website and pay all the bs service charges.

I was looking at this collection of remixes being sold on Bandcamp and cost for the vinyl  and CDs were reasonable, but the digital version was listed at 999 quid and i'm like  :o :o :o .. i get it you want people to buy physical, but geeze...

but then i read in the description..  so oh well, the shipping from the UK on even the CDs are probably very expensive...

PLEASE NOTE: One or two of tracks on this album have been licensed from a major label. The terms of this license do not allow us to sell the digital tracks, though anyone purchasing the vinyl will receive a full album download on the day of release.
With Bandcamp being a digital platform we do have to make digital available, so we set a daft prohibitive price to get around the issue.

Hope that explains it!

Didn't take that capitalist Neil too long to hop on Sirius!
im surprised there is zero action (AFAIK) by another big artist

Plus Neil got a pile of money from Sirius
Most others won’t

I think Neil can and should do what he wants, he literally put his money where his mouth is
#respect

But I feel like smacking everyone who has gleefully posted how they ‘stuck it to the man’ by switching from a multi- billion co to another bigger multi million company with probably similar content

I mean another reason to ditch Spotify is by how very little they pay their artists. I believe it’s .003 to .005 cents per stream played.

Apple Music pays .01 per stream in comparison (plus it’s much easier to AirPlay to my setup).
