Tracey...I've had that happen to me a couple of times...I think they send it a little bit early so that you get it as close to the release date as possible...
I think when I pre-ordered Get Ready (from the UK), they shipped it 3 days before the release date, knowing full well that it would never get here that quickly...
The release date is for customers,retailers get releases in advance,say delivered on Saturday so they can have it on sale monday morning. I`ve ordered a few things on-line and they arrive day of release,so if you get post on bank holidays you should get it-if no post tuesday (by which time everyone will have had it a day before!).
I bought 'Get Ready' on a street in Russia one month before its official release in the UK. It looked like an ordinary CD, with cover, with labels. The only thing that differed was a 2001 picture of the band on the backcover.
Just got “in session” in Tower Dublin.
Sleeve is by Saville (I was right) along the same lines as the last 2 BBC releases. To start with the positive:
The web cast of transmission is really good. Seems to be is shot in Steve's studio (TBTHOG poster on the wall). To me it’s the best joy division “cover” new order have done. Paradise is really good too (I love that song) your silent face comes across well. The others are ok (I don’t think rock the shack or slow jam should be on any new order collection), but the “new” versions of true faith and touched (as it is now apparently called) don’t work in a “session” or “studio” at all. I think that new intro to true faith sounds really good live, but it don’t here! Touched is terrible. Espically that “do do do” bit Just after the first “touched” lyric. I don’t know how NewOrder reimagine themselves, but if this particular re working is anything to go by, then it’s not the way I would have hoped. To use a particularly bad analogy, put Heinz ketchup on your 5star dinner.
Anyhow, that’s what I think (Just first thoughts) I didn’t care much for “get ready” on first listen either, but oh how its grown. Got “things to make and do” by moloko as well, and its already getting more play than “in session”!
yeah, Diddnt expect to see it there, gave the new order section the once over and dizzam
I used to work in a record shop, and when the boxes came in, they went out on the shelves. I guess tower is overstaffed.
I have been to every major record shop in my area (HMV,Virgin,MusicZone,MVC) as well as Borders,WH Smiths,Woolworths & Asda. NO-ONE AS THE ALBUM IN STOCK . HMV said they had 1 copy in but an employee bought it! Its a fuckin disgrace!

ER. Buy it online then!
It's bank holiday. Stupid time to release a CD
Saw it TWICE today, but resisted....HMV & Virgin wanted £13.99![]()
Will buy it later tonight in Fopp who have it for £10:D
As I said a few weeks back, I order it from www.cd-wow.com for £8.99
It hasn't come yet, but I am a patient man and you don't get post on a bank holiday Monday.
Its not worth the fuss. im sure itll be in the shops some day soon. honestly, i dont know how long it takes you to get to liverpool, but it cant be worth it for this cd.
Mine was delivered yesterday, ordered from sirendisc. True Faith sounded good. I still detest Slow Jam, but Rock the Shack sounded pretty good. Of course I assume Transmission is unplayable.

I got it in Chester in the end. for a very respectable £11 (2 for £22).

What bait you using?
Once you buy this Shug,your whole fuckin life goes out the window and a new life starts. Its a good & bad thing though,we moved last year into a bigger house and i had to sell my Audi S3(fuckin pride and joy),got an Astra now. But the missus is happy so i get a stress free life.
DoN - these things must be done sometimes, even I have to GROW up sometime (Cue Hibster)
Hibster - maggots dipped in tomato sauce
Steve - Cheers for yer endorsement and shining light in my direction that there's no point in living anymore. Joy Division for me when I get home tonight;)
