Frost* / Re: Frost* NOT on iTunes??
May 16, 2012, 05:24:01 PM
It's best to sell physical CD's than the album on iTunes.

First off, a person should not be ALLOWED to purchase a single Frost track. If you like one, you'll like all of it!  :twisted:

And second, it's been asked to an artist to verify which one is more profitable. And he would make a bit more money on the physical CD. But that's a CD sold in store even. If the artist/band sell the album themselves, or use a company that gives a greater share of the profits (ex: CDBaby.com), it's even more worth it.

My name in the thank you notes, for a ridiculous reason like "for breathing fine French Canadian air" (sorry, not having very good imagination right now)

For the rest I'm pretty confident I will enjoy ;)

Just reading people's posts on here and [often] having a good laugh, that'll do.

We'll get through it, no worries, it's just a matter of time.

Peace.

Thanks Pedro.

Having a rough time these past weeks, so celebrating will be kind of hard, but I will try my best.

I guess we have another case of "Spock's Beard - V"  vs.  "Symphony X - V" (sort of), although these ALSO had the same album title...

Woah, I actually went there on my trip to London (and surroundings of course, if I went there)! An absolutely fabulous cathedral. And enormous as well. One of the highlights of my trip!

Quote from: "catherine"I'm seriously out of date then - the most recent one I have is The Ladder... (how on earth did Magnification pass me by? Was I asleep at the time?) Just as well I didn't buy the rather nice £30 Yes tie-dye t-shirt at the gig last night as I think I can feel a couple of album purchases coming on...
Honestly, you haven't missed much skipping Magnification... Well, in my opinion anyways.  ;)

About the new album... I was very hesitant to get it. Not because of the lead singer change, but simply because Yes has fallen very far from expectation with their previous albums (or simply for their lack of albums  :cry: ). Magnification is probably the most boring Yes album ever, The Ladder had very good moments, but not all good, Open Your Eyes had just a couple of good songs. The last excellent album was Talk (again, IMHO), and that's way back in 1994. That's 17 years ago!!! That's longer than most bands even exist for  :lol: . So I did the thing I'm not supposed to do: I downloaded the album. Well well well... to my surprise, I was enjoying my first listen of the album  :shock: . And then, the more I listened, the more I liked. I eventually bought it in store, because I was enjoying it too much. That's when I say, even on my tight budget, "I have to get this!".

Since then, I don't think there's been a day passing by where I didn't listen to at least one track on the album. It's been SOOO LOOOOONG since I've enjoyed a Yes album this much. It's refreshing. I don't know if it's the coming of the new lead singer that sparked something up, but for me, this is a new start for Yes. Of course it does not sound like Fragile, but it doesn't sound like 90125 either. Sort of in the middle where Drama was.

Verdict: buy!

Announcements / Re: Frost* Derby DVD - PLEASE READ!

How can we not be understanding of the situation, and not feel bad for you for this?

As someone who could not attend (if I was rich I would have though), of course I was looking forward to the DVD. But you are making up for this quite nicely.

Thank you Jem, you are very generous with us.
