Anybody spot themselves in "No Weak Pits?"  I spotted myself and my friend.  Matt Fraction is the man.

I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Anybody else not get theirs yet. Still waiting on my 2011 premium too. I'm feeling left out.

I'm still waiting for mine, too, Alex. I'm in Chicago, which isn't TOO far away, but it doesn't seem like distance has anything to do with it. Ho hum.

If you email Joe McGasko about it, I'd give it a 100% chance.

Thanks!

I just got my 2011 Premiums in the mail yesterday (forwarded from the previous address) and on the packing slip it had "Best Show Fantasy Pack" listed as backordered.

I emailed Joe with my listener # off the packing slip, so we'll see what happens...

This is so great... all of it.

Chicago FOT's: I'm thinking we could pull off a Viewing party at the bar I work at some Monday in July... thoughts? Like show half of it, intermission, show the rest. Have a DJ play some records, etc.

Which bar? I would love it, as I came to the Best Show recently, post-pledge/dvd opportunity.  I know at least 4 people that would come with me!

I don't have mine but I have zero expectations of getting it quickly, partly as I am in the UK and partly as a pledged way late, like 6 months after the marathon and I'm cool with getting it whenever. Just to have it will be reward enough.

I got it and I've watched it. Absolutely exceeds expectations and was worth the wait.

I particularly liked 'Track Jacket Chat', which I thought was a very effective translation of Scharpling and Wurster to the TV screen. Also loved the travelogues, although I wish Fredericks would have been on camera at some point, and the bit where they give Ted Leo career advice and help him write the song about playing vidtriv.

Out of curiosity I asked Milo if he'd had a chance to see the DVD, since he makes a couple of appearances (including in the PFT bit as 'Miles'), and his response in its entirety was 'nope'. Anyhow.

I think Kurt Vile's "You sound stupid" is my favorite moment of the entire DVD.

I won't ruin it but "Vid triv" is an absolute classic. The Ffed Up video is finely crafted cartoon fantasy and amazing song. Julie and Fredricks have equally surreal videos. Wow. Worth the wait. I was worried they forgot my pledge,

There is only problem with this DVD, and it is that I wish there was a new one every month for us to enjoy.

Truly spectacular, and such a representation of the show and the community in its entirety.  So, so, so, so well done.  Thanks to everyone who put this together!
