Go to the Facebook page and see for yourself.

Your post wouldn't have been half as annoying if you had just said "It doesn't look like this is going very well" and been on your way.

Most promotional aspects of TGF's campaign for this album have been a total flop. It is great that a lot of you like the music, but they are just awful business men. The fact that they didn't proofread their CD track listing properly screams of their carelessness. Couple that with the failed Facebook sponsored "Drive for 25", Honest Man flopping due to its early release, and numerous other strange choiced that they have made.

Ed's mistakes get pointed out reguarly on this board, and they are far less numerous.

I don't like jumping on the Nick-bashing wagon as I think you take a lot more flak then you deserve but that post seriously made me groan. Enough with the marketing nonsense already, yeesh.

It is just professionalism. How many CD's do you own with an incorrect tracklisting? It is just embarrassing to have that happen, especially on your debut album. What's worse is that they only have themselves to blame.

I think I have a Default CD that has the tracks mislabeled, but I didn't care about that nor do I care about TGF's list being wrong. I don't think even fresh off the street listeners are going to care after a few spins, either. They'll judge the CD based on what they hear, not what they read on the back of the case.

None of those things can even come close to stealing from your own bandmates, that is the "mistake" that Ed catches most of the crap for.

Signing with EMI = Flop
Having a song on Rock Band = Flop
Setting up a national tour = Flop
Having over 14K Facebook fans (EK only has 15K) = Flop
Distributing autographed albums through Newbury Comics = Flop

What am I missing here Nick? Yes there have been failures but there have also been huge successes that you seem to gloss over.

For once I am not commenting on what the spoiled rich kid is saying. Read into it what you wish.

How is the Drive for 25,000 fans going?

I really don't understand why this is a VS. thing and people simply can't enjoy one, the other, or both without all the shit spewing.

Nick - if these guys ever get back together how are you going to feel about the rest of the band then?

Ed's happy, the guys are happy, and everyone here is out for blood.

Swami can verify that Live actually has released albums that have incorrect tracklistings.

It happens all the time. I used to work for a CD Mfg/Distribution big whig. Consider it a collectors item, perhaps done on purpose, but most likely a first run printing error. Maybe the second run books are all the autographed ones.

And to the 'peanut gallery', stop with your pleathora of knowlegde, you don't know jack shit.
