um yes. i made a mistake there. snorry.
my advice was the japanese bonus track originally.
my advice, take care and falling were the b-sides to , and are now the three bonus tracks on the remastered \"let it come down\".

ah yes, i’ve got this one too.
i wonder where it went, because i was going to make scans, but then forgot about it.i think it would be interesting to mention that this copy’s video has been "watermarked" with the text "viewing copy" which is shown on the screen throughout the show, each time for a couple of seconds. a bit like subtitles, that keep appearing and disappearing.
i should make some screenshots to illustrate.those bonus tracks are the \"be strong now\" b-sides. only one of them (falling) was used as a japanese bonus track before.
i’ve ordered the reissue yesterday, together with the new album.
that wouldn’t be the best promotion for a car alarm.
would you buy a car alarm that can be disarmed with a smile? everyone – except the extremely grumpy – would be able to get into your car.ooh! the unnumbered strange fruit 10\" has been added.

hey, don’t forget to check out this thread: http://forum.spfreaks.com/viewtopic.php?p=22114
according to that thread, i own three cherub rock 12\" white label promos.
my collection also contains four copies of peel sessions WLP, one i am one WLP, one today WLP and one disarm WLP.don’t they also try to destroy test pressings when they no longer need them?
maybe there simply aren’t any test pressings anymore for a lot of releases.and i think that if you’re in the situation where you simply can’t tell, and where plenty of white label promos are known to exist, there is no reason to call it a test pressing. there is no point, and it’s most likely false.
the chance that it actually is a test pressing (i.e. pressed for the specific purpose of checking the quality) is tiny. first of all, one would have to assume that once the pressing was approved, they used the handful of test pressings as promos, instead of keeping them or destroying them. this is not a given. on top of that, the amount of test pressings is small compared to the amound of promos they pressed afterwards.well, if you can’t tell the difference, then you shouldn’t think there are only 25 copies. you should add the amount of white label promos.
the difference can’t always be told.
the main difference is why they were made. test pressings are very small runs (even smaller than 25 copies; i think 5 per test pressing is more realistic), with the intention to check if everything is ok. white label promos might look identical to test pressings, but they were pressed in larger amounts (hundreds), with the intention to be handed out as promotional items.
so if you found a copy, and you don’t know where it came from, and it’s just a record with a white label in a generic hut label sleeve, then it’s a white label promo. the fact that someone on ebay listed it as a \"test pressing\" does not make it a test pressing. you need to know the (true) story behind it before you can consider it a test pressing.if you rearrange the letters in ‘corgan’ and ‘solis’, you get ‘ass coloring’. might be another hidden message.

omg!i bet the interviewer doesn’t even know about the messages on the siamese dream reissue.
hmmm… that’s not working for me; youtube is acting weird.
i’ve watched it too now, but i don’t see anything in that video that would hint at the end of the pumpkins.
is this a new webisode? do you have a link?
i remember seeing a couple before. (two gish songs and starla, if i’m not mistaken.)could be any record.
like you said, i don’t think they ever use a record that matches the album they’re awarding.ah, cool. appreciated.
i’ve finally found my gf’s camera + cable, so i can now make a couple of pictures from the (opened) vinyl releases, to add to those spfreaks entries. i’ll try to do this some time this week.
linkin park, the offspring and limp bizkit?!?
wow. i have no words for this.do you think they’ll play pinkpop again? i believe it’s around the same time.
i think the only thing that could possibly top that is announcing an announcement about the release of the gift, but then eventually cancelling the whole thing.
but maybe we should leave that to the master himself.delayed by one year? so this is a proper project in the style of teagarden by delayoscope. i bet billy would be really proud if he found out. this is probably the best gift one could give him.
the cd also mentions that it was \"made from the underground fanclub\". i’m not sure if they’re talking about this specific bootleg, or about machina II in general. the rest of the explanation definitely seems to be about machina II in general, so my guess would be that it’s not related to this bootleg in specific, and just a bit of misinformation about machina II.
