It's just laziness, pure and simple. Then it will be someone else's fault.

Blinki, were you the one who posted some fabulous ideas for covers over on BOF? Or was it Watercolors? I can't remember. Those ideas were 1000 times better than these.

It's obvious this album is getting the short shrift. To reuse the photos from Siberia because they couldn't be bothered posing for new photos and/or they couldn't be bothered paying for new photos is a sin. And if they didn't want to pose and/or pay, then why not use some photos we've never seen before?

Gak.


I know this woman LOVES EATB - so you can dismiss my frustration but ITM is the closest regular to RED we have here - so listen up!!!! Will & Ian - what you are doing rivals Pearl Jam's deal with Target. Crap.

Red was the closest regular Red here until BF ruined it.

Maybe Mac and Will can get a deal with Meijer or JC Penney.

Oh, have you been imbibing? BF is a sweety - and if RED took offense after we all met up in person then two people need to tocuh base via pm because I know BFer (despite being a total insensitie prick bastard to my needs) is a truly caring sensitive soul. I know for a fact he wants the Redder back, as we all do - except Jack -

Look at what Will and Ian are doing. It is Ian. Can they guy not come up with a slightly creative nelody line? Is it that hard to belt out some versus over and over - inflect them in a few way and then lay some chords over them? Hire a studio musician to figure out the chord progression to go over the vocal line of Will can't for Christ's sake! It isn't that hard. After 30 years, these are tricks any hobbyists knows. For fucks sake, Aerosmith hired ghost writers for their songs. Do that and give us something worth listening to.

Yeah but you have to admit, this is distracting from my hilarious yet simple JC Penney photoshopping

It keeps my mind of the erectile dysfunction as well. Or were we talking about the other thing?

I like the album cover, the single cover not so much. Definitely like it way more than the last two album covers. It does look a little like it's cut and paste, who knows what it'll look when you actually have the album in your hands.
