after reading the list recently i have noticed everyone is confused 
about these 2 releases. here is what i know:

the v/vm christmas 7" was limited to 300 worldwide. i got 50 copies in, 
and none of mine had any tinsel inside. i dont think i have the time to 
take all of the tinsel out, so the idea that the distributors or shops 
did that seems a bit off base. i think the v/vm guys probably hand 
distributed some, and did the tinsel bit to those shops who got them 
straight off the label

the boards 7" is not out yet. i have at least 2 sources i can get them 
from and one told me it was pushed back, and the other in the uk 
approached me for pre-orders yesterday. it looks like it will be down to 
the wire to get them out before christmas. the new skam single is in the 
same situation i do believe. dont know much about it yet. same goes for 
mask 3. i was also asked how many i would want yesterday, so it is near 
the shipping date i would think

the mealtime comp is a bit of a mystery. no-one stateside knows anything 
about it. i called astralwerks and they are not putting it out either, 
so the export ban concept seems unlikely. got my feelers out, and i 
expect to know something soon

see ya - pj

np: the sound of the little voices inside my head and those new dot 
records too
