'Roesbud' CD release?

I had heard from a very good source that the "Roesbud" fan club CD would get released through the webstores sometime. Any hints on when this might be available?

Curious and anxious too.

Roesbud and Guilty Pleasures are both coming.. we've been trying to space things out a little so we don't overburden the store or anyones pocketbooks. No real time frame in mind, just playing it by ear.

Good to see both of these discs show up back in the store, as they are both great discs.

Excellent to hear! I missed out on the Roesbud fan club and am really looking forward to that one. I sincerely appreciate not 'overburdening the pocket' too! Thanks for the info.

I'm wondering too. I posted my reply last December, and still no announcements since...

  great news!

This is good to hear! I missed out on the original releases and don't have the extra $30 laying around like I have seen them go for on e-bay.

That being said... If they don't come out for another 2 years, I guess that would be okay because it means that new albums are being released. Personally, I'd like to buy new music as much as I'd like to buy old stuff that that I missed out on...

Its basically ready to go. There were some other things delaying it early on, but now this is the issue...

The shipping system that we've had in place for years had started to break down. Letters going to Illinois (one state away) were taking 15-20 days or something. We sent a check to Mike a while back that took like 20 days. There were other weird things happening like that as well and it was disturbingly consistent. I have no clue what was happening with it, but we couldn't let it continue.

So, we scrapped that entire system and started fresh with something new. So far, it seems to be working well.. packages on average were taking around 3 days within the US. (We were out of town for a week or so and are currently a little backed up on things, so that throws off very recent orders a bit). One of the cool things about the new system is that we can actually click on a piece of postage in our software and it will tell us if its been delivered and when it arrived. Thats extremely helpful. We should also be adding email shipping confirmations soon... that way the customer will know as soon as an item ships (as long as they are able to receive our email and its not blocked or something).

Anyway - there are a few other fixes that have been in the works as well... but we've just been holding off on adding to our daily shipping until this stuff was resolved. We try not to add to our work if something is creating regular issues.. otherwise it just makes the problem ten times worse... we didn't want to add a couple hundred orders to the problem.

It seems to be resolved now, but we do want to get caught up again from being out of town. So once thats out of the way, we should be bringing Roesbud and Guilty Pleasures back.

Awesome to hear! I hope Mike and Terry are paying you and your brother well!!!!!

Wow! The new shipping system does sound like great news. I'd gotten very discouraged with orders taken months in the past when I live so close, but I think I'll be placing a new order when Roesbud comes in. Thanks again for keeping this all working!
