My Australian Couldn't Have Said It Better has been dispatched! Yay!!:P

Ahem,

Just thought I'd share my hapiness at this great news with you all. Hopefully it wont take too long to arrive, but it is coming from other side of the world. & Hopefully I'll get it in time for my birthday on Thursday.

Very cool! Which company did you buy yours from? I also ordered one, from Chaos music, but mine has to come even further; to the US. I can't wait to hear the live tracks.

I cancelled the one from Chaos and re-ordered it as an import from Amazon.com here in the U.S. ... the price was about the same (surprisingly), but hopefully I should get it a lot sooner :) I am so looking forward to those live tracks too !!

sherrie87 · 29 Sep 2003, 03:33

Doh! Why didn't I think of that Vicki?

Oh well.....either way it will arrive, just a bit later I guess.

Actually I was surprised to see it listed on Amazon ... usually it takes a long time for them to get imports like that.

Hopefully you won't have to wait too long :)

My Birthday today, but havent got my Aussie CHSIB yet

But it'll be worth the wait (it IS coming from the other side of the world after all). & I got next week off work so when it does arrive I can listen to it ALL WEEK. By the way, I ordered it from HMV australia as the HMV websites are usually pretty good. (except the Canadian one as my credit card people (the Bank I work for!) wont convert canadian dollars to pounds!)

Also, sorry if I dont reply very often (in case you were wondering), I dont go on the computer that often.

That's a shame you haven't gotten the CD yet ... but it'll definitely be worth the wait :) I know you'll enjoy it !

ChrisBelfast · 03 Oct 2003, 08:46

And it Rocks! Live tracks are excellent, i know know what people mean when they say its the best NE Yet!!! The bonus live CD is worth the price of a cd on its own!

heat · 03 Oct 2003, 11:24

Take it you like it then, Chris????

Beer-man · 03 Oct 2003, 12:15

I got my copy today and are very happy.......It was worth the wait. From the instant that I heard Because of You, It has made it onto the list of Lovey Dovey songs and will play first after the bridal waltz at our wedding.....Should get me nicley in the mood for some Bat out of Hell later in the night :P

rockfenris2005 · 03 Oct 2003, 12:27

I got my copy on Tues. (Sept 30, am I right). The album, ALONE, is a treasure - but the BONUS CD?? Absolutely regal!!!! Eight years of waiting has paid off - congratulations Fireball

ChrisBelfast · 03 Oct 2003, 13:25

I love LYOL live, its sounds great. LIAL is also really good, i like that version its different as regards the Live around the world version. I think Tear me down sounds awesome too. CHSIB has such a cool intro!!!
Unfortunately there is no indication where the tracks were recorded though. I wouldnt be surprised though if these tracks make up the extras on Meats next single release.

Shane · 03 Oct 2003, 13:33

I haven't got mine yet, hopefully I will soon though. It makes me happier to read the great comments about it.

Perhaps people who went to the concerts where it was recorded will recognise the live tracks.

DazLoaf01 · 08 Oct 2003, 20:58

Got my Aus copy today from Play.com...

The album itself is fantastic! I couldn't be more pleased! I can't believe it's taken me this long to hear it...!!!

As for the bonus live CD... this is going to sound really wierd, but I've been trying for the past 2 hours to open up the case to access the second CD, though there's one little plastic nodule keeping it clamped down towoards the left of it. There are no other little nodules holding it down apart from the one, and I feer that the case would break if I tried to force open it

This really is rediculous! I can't believe I'm being stopped by one stupid piece of plastic....

I may seriously have to get a mini drill from Dad's workshop to cut away the plastic nodule. Please tell me if you've also had similar problems!

sherrie87 · 09 Oct 2003, 04:09

Sheesh, I'm having flashbacks to when I ordered CHSIB as an import from the UK- everyone was going on about how good it was as I was practially stalking my mailman during the two weeks it took to arrive in the States! :P The version of Lemon on Live Around the World is a real favorite of mine, so now I'm looking forward to hearing the Aussie live CD even more! Only about 3 1/2 more weeks post time to go!

Sherrie

MBrevard · 09 Oct 2003, 04:25

Sherrie--did you say that you're getting your copy from Chaos Music?? That's where I ordered mine and two days ago, I received an email from them saying that they had not yet gotten the CD from their suppliers and were apologizing for the delay. Anybody else get theirs from this source and receive the same email??

I was just wondering what was going on?? Guess I'd better check with them, but I thought I'd double-check with you first, Sherrie, to see if that's where yours was coming from.

Love,
MB

Shane · 09 Oct 2003, 11:52

Wooo hoo! I got my Australian copy today too.

As with all new cds I buy, I have trouble getting it out of the case the first few times. I have found that if I press down on the centre part that fits through the hole in the cd while simultaneously lifting, twisting and turning the cd, I can get it out.

I ordered from http://www.sanity.com.au and got it about 10 days after it was dispatched from them.

If anyone recognises exactly which concert the songs came from, please say which one! I am not sure who was in the band at the time these were performed.

sherrie87 · 09 Oct 2003, 15:32

Hi MB-

Yes, I ordered mine from Chaos music too. I got an email from them last week saying they had not received it from their supplier, then a second about 2 days ago saying that it had shipped. Maybe they got a small amount but didn't have enough to fill the "new" orders.

I'm very excited about receiving it, eventually.

Sherrie

dukesofhazard · 09 Oct 2003, 21:28

I ordered mine from HMV Australia - Haven't had any emails from em but my order status says it was shipped on 28th Sept but it still hasn't arrived

Says it could take up to 15 working days for international shipping on the website so with any luck I'll have it beginning of next week. But I want it NOW!!!! (At least I've had the UK version since its release anyway

)

I ordered mine from HMV Australia. Mine was shipped like yours on 28th September and it arrived today. So perhaps tomorrow for yours? Anyway the bonus live CD is well worth the wait

dukesofhazard · 10 Oct 2003, 13:05

WOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!! Got mine today! (you were right Puritan

) Fantastic! 46 Mins of live stuff is great value!

Apparently it took so long cos it got held up in customs - they must've seen what it was & wanted a listen of it!

DazLoaf01 · 10 Oct 2003, 23:32

I *finally* got the case open (just a silly bit of plastic that haden't been cut properly) and the live CD is great! 46 minutes as well!

I can't tell you how awesome this album is!!! I can't believe it's taken more than 6 months to get it!!! There are sooooo many potential singles on here, it's amazing!!!

Just thought I'd share my feelings
