Hi guys - i know the Ten Legacy edition hasn't even come out yet but i wanted to try and get some peoples thoughts of what might be included in the Vs edition?
I'm guessing we'll get vinyls, b-sides and rarities - but what will they be? Will we get a different mix of the album? The 2nd replica of Eddies notebook?

ALL albums... not good at all. Its never a good sign for a band when they start re-releaseing ALL of their albums.

Ten had a original shitty mix, but not the other albums, so i hope not.

Not really sure if I like the idea of all those deluxe sets, Ten really needed an update but that's the only one imo. If they go ahead with VS. I hope it will have some b-sides and tracks that were not on Lost Dogs like 'crazy mary' and 'angel' and I really prefer the vs. 'Alone'. Other than that maybe a live disc.
Some time ago I asked 10C what to expect from the following remasters, because I simply cannot afford 6 super hyper deluxe sets. This is what I got:

Hi,
Sorry, we are currently only working on the Ten Reissue so we are not certain what the future has in store for the other albums at this time.
Best, 10c

If only for the fact it means all Vinyls will be re-released it's a good idea.. any extra is bonus.
_________________ 2009 was a great year for PJ gigs looking forward to 2010 and: Columbus, Noblesville, Cleveland, Buffalo, Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen, Berlin, Arras, Werchter, Lisbon, some more US (wherever is the Anniversary show/a birthday show)
i hope that do it for all of them to be honest and go all out like they are doing with Ten.
I think they could do much the same as they've done with Ten, but change a few of the things. Would be great if they released a DVD of a show from that tour and a live album again from that era. I'd be happy to see another notebook of eddies writings etc.

The packaging of the 10 box looks to me to be pretty well set-up to eventually stand side-by-side on a shelf with 7 other very similar looking boxes.
Just saying.

I'm thinking Ten is the only album that will get the box set treatment. The rest will probably just be reissued as 2 disc Deluxe versions and vinyls.
That's my understanding. They are giving Ten the deluxe treatment as a treat for the anniversary process and all the others are basic legacy remix releases from here until there 20th anniversary. I think they are winging it right now so who knows in the end. I do know they put allot of thought and heart into the Ten Reissue though.

If they're really going to re-release all of their studio albums, I wish they'd just make one box with 8 albums and a couple of discs of extra and then fucking be done with this. I can't handle being nicked and dimed eight times over the next two years.
