Progress updates - Stay on topic!
Can anyone dig up the timeline from the release of Big Whiskey? If my memory serves me correctly, they're on similar studio schedules. Now that doesn't necessarily mean that they're on the same release schedule but it would be interesting to compare.

Re: Progress updates
this is all very speculative. I think the big whiskey sessions were spearheaded by management and the record company. The hype surrounding the album (site, videos, etc) were a creation of non-dmb people. thus, the timeline was extended because the record company hyped before much was done.
In these sessions, it seems as though they went to the studio on their own without record company influence. I say this because lillywhite was kept secret. If the sessions went well, they go to the company.. they go bad, nothing happens.. no pressure to make the album.. I think steve's latin tweet was a sign they had signalled to the record company they had a product. because of this, I expect us to get a preorder page and that's it. I think the album will be released in before April, with little or no hype from dmb. I hope it happens even sooner via a download only format. I personally hate the process of leaks and such... |
Re: Progress updates
It will get as much hype as possible, it's what sells records these days.

Re: Progress updates
I don't think they're on similar studio schedules at all. DMB spent months in studios in New Orleans and Seattle just working out new songs and writing new songs. This album, Dave brought in material he'd been working on during the year, plus maybe a few songs left over from BW or from tours past ('04, '10) and they worked them out and recorded them in a month.

Re: Progress updates
looking back at the big whiskey progress, Jan 1, 2009 was the first NOLA session, and if you check out Dave's twitter when his account was active, I believe it was March 22, 2009 that he tweeted the album was done...and I believe BW was released June 2, 2009..........so given that timeline and the progress that we've heard from Rashawn, etc.....it seems like they are on track for a similar release date, May/June.............am I correct with my dates MR. STATS??

Re: Progress updates
Weren't they recording for Big Whiskey prior to the NOLA sessions? I mean, they did fall back on some of Roi's takes..
Also, I honestly thought they were in NOLA sooner than Jan. 1, 2009, but it was awhile ago, I could be wrong. |
Re: Progress updates
The lack of info is kind of upsetting considering how "far along" they are in the studio process. All we know is Lillywhite is producing. I need more....

Re: Progress updates
when do you think they release some kinda promo/in-the-making video?

Do they usually send out an additional email once its officially released after the "pre-order" emails go out? I can't seem to remember them doing this... Edit - Regarding Live Trax releases |

Re: Progress updates
I wonder if Dave will end up drawing the cover art again. Or if that was a one (or two if you count Pizza Box) time thing.

Pretty sure they will not be returning to the studio (at least in Seattle) since Pearl Jam is going in next week or the week after to start recording a new album.

Re: Progress updates
Well, we most likely have lack of updates right now because Steve was in England receiving his C.B.E. from the Queen. Now Steve tweeted that he is heading back west (I assume to Seattle).
