I was wondering if the band had considered releasing some of their earlier EPs. I have everything they have done except Kevin's Telescope :cry: (and demos) and it really bothers me to be missing actual songs that they have put out. These EPs are very rare on E-bay, and I am sure that the band could make extra money if they re-released the music- just as they have Always and Almost a Dance.

Plus, purists like me will still be chasing the used CD market to get one of the original EPs.

This wasn't exactly a trade question, but I'm not sure where else on the forum something like this would go.

If anybody does have an old duplicate copy of Kevin's Telescope, I do have some video tape of shows, primarily from their US tour in 1999.

Well, the band did re-release the demos thru the Downfall CD compilation... I know it's not the orginla items but well, finding the original demo tapes is really diificult.. just impossible...

For the EP, the band is not in control really.. It's more Counting Money [you know, their previous label ;)] that can decide to re-release the EPs... I'm sure sooner or later they will bring a B-sides +rarities compilation on the market.. It's getting in fashion to do so... and when it comes to fashion the crappy label does everything to make pennies...

There's a TG Demo on eBay right now. The auction doesn't have any pix and hardly any info, though. :roll:

Oh yes, I agree totally with you Burn.

IMHO, it's better to just buy the Downfall release.
