Any update on the Unfun reissue?  I really hate going to the hot topic website

Cool news. I need to check this forum more than once every few months.

We're all getting older. The band still looks good. Don't wait too long for the reunion.

you're too kind. there's maybe half my hair under that hat.

A Bivouac reissue would be interesting. It is definitely the most misunderstood album in the band's catalogue. I would love to see a proper CD tracklisting.

if there are going to be extras, how about some of the demo songs (ie "Rich" & "Down" from demo #1 or "Driven", "Imaginary War", or "Want" from #2)?

C'mon Adam, spill the beans... Did you guys even discuss doing a reunion show?????  Last time I saw you guys play was in Gainesville, FL. in 1996. My friends and I ran into Blake at a Laundromat in the afternoon of the day of the show.  
 
bald steve Posted on 7:16 am on Jan. 15, 2008
I'll buy the remastered unfun, any chance to throw any extras onto it?  I'll even take cleaned up versions of live stuff I already have, those tracks that keep showing up on all the new compilations are pretty stellar.  

What's not to like about Bivouac?

PS I really hate that everybody just sends updates through myspace, I don't even consider going there to get news about stuff I like.

well. it won't be a revisionist/greedo shoots first thing, anyway. and on that, we were NEVER happy with how bivouac was mastered. i'd really like john to get his mits on that one...
 
jerry curlan Posted on 12:49 am on Jan. 11, 2008
Oh.

*throws away cd, buys original lp*

Any extras on this new release?
 
adam Posted on 12:42 am on Jan. 11, 2008
first off, the original plates for the unfun lp are long gone. i could do it from the cd but that's lame. also, john g originally mastered the lp way back in the day. then he remastered for cd when we went to cd (believe it or not, that's how fuckin old we are. when that record first came out, not that many people -- certainly the "punks" were buying cds). so it's already been remastered. this will be thrice the charm and if i know john, there likely won't be a lot of tinkering with the overall sound (though i always thought it could literally be LOUDER and maybe less compressed. kosher?
 
jerry curlan Posted on 5:45 pm on Jan. 10, 2008
Unfun remaster? Why, Adam, why, says the original master freaks including me.

I also would have accepted:

Blake looks insanely tan, especially for Dec/Jan. reminded me of that leathery lady from There's Something About Mary..

More from Adam....

"A few "new items" i read mentioned the doc and us playing together. it was a reunion of sorts - we hadn't seen billy a since our last sf show in 1996. but i doubt i'll put up any songs from that recent session. the best one is way too long a file to upload, and anyway, i didn't even ask the boys if they had an opinion - bad. and hey, check out the interview with billy in the blog section of our page - it's a good read, especially if you're into nuts-and-bolts recording tech.

i'm remastering unfun next month wit jon golden. i'll let you know release date later and yes, it'll be available on itunes and all the other usual suspects.

okay, thanks for (still?) listening!

adam"

I'm usually not to big of a fan of remasters, but I think Unfun could be a good one, I'm looking forward to it.  As opposed to the Remastered "Energy" from Operation Ivy, waaaay unessicary.
