I saw that as well, is there any reason that 1, I should believe that it\'s legit and 2, that I would pay $30 bucks for it?
Has it been confirmed that this is another El Stew session, or is someone trying to gaffle?
As i said on the Tk. We should summon brother Travis and maybe he can comunicate with the ghosts and let us know that this is not a rip-off ;D
For some reason I think that this is DJ Disk\'s venture, being the shiggar fraggar...Maybe some of Bucket\'s SF buddies printed up another edition, or are planning to? Just a hunch.
I don\'t know guys....
It seems very Bootleg-esque to me.
Not to mention the fact that the ebay account that has listed it doesn\'t have a 100% feedback score. You would think that if this was legit that they would at least use an account that is 100% trusted....
I call bogus all over this.
If this is legit I am sure it will be available from a more reputable source. I have never heard of "Pre-Orders" being done via ebay.
That eBay account is Disk. This was actually on his website a few weeks ago briefly on a news page that went up and then came back down. I definitely am not going to vouch for Disk because he has flaked in the past, but he mentioned this via email to me along with a possible vinyl pressing, a Quailsbreath cd, a reissure of Live @ Slims w/ an additional track and a Slims dvd. I hope it all comes to fruition. I paid for pre-order on this one a couple of weeks ago. I am contacting him currently to try to find out where the other 1900 are going.
The listing has been updated to include:
" This ebay SELLER has the OFFICIAL PERMISSION to sell this product , all rights reserved 2011
The cd will be released under Gonerville Records and One Eyed Slug Entertainment 2011 owned by DJ DISK LLC .
OFFICIAL LICENCING PERMISSION GRANTED UNDER STATE LAW , GONERVILLE RECORDS LLC "
Thanks for clarification Fuzzface. I guess I better Pre-Order.
Srsly? I really like that first rehearsal but shelling 30 bucks for something like that?
I would be wary of this. I am friends with a couple of the band members and they know nothing about it and were surprised when I told them. Apparently its something Disk has done on his own and is using the name.
I pre-ordered this, so we\'ll see if it\'s legit and I\'ll post back letting you guys know but I\'m sure someone will be doing the same.
just got it today and its pretty badass, sounds to be the reeldeel.
I\'ve gotten a lot of questions about this. I know nothing about it. It is not a TDRS disc and as far as I know, nobody I know or work with knows anything about it either.
I emailed Brain about this a couple days ago and today he sent me a response:
"This El Stew is "Not Authorized"... Its a scam!"
I don\'t think it is a scam to the fans because people are actually getting the cd but I do think Disk might be scamming Brain, Extrakd, Eddie Def, and Buckethead by not getting compensated for this release. IDK?

worst part is hes charging twice as much and paying the rest absolutely nothing
UPDATE: 4.10.11 THIS IS A SCAM AS PER BRAIN!!!
BUYER BEWARE
I e-mailed Brain to ask him about this and here is his response. In addition, I also e-mailed Travis previously and his response is further below.
4.8.11 - Hey Brain
There is some major concern that this CD being released is not legit. Can you share any info on this? A lot of people want to know your position on this>
4.10.11 - Brain's response: "Not authorized... Its a scam!"
3.10.11 - Previous response from Travis: "Sorry, I don't know anything about these. They are not from TDRS. I doubt they are real LE's."
Therefore, if you buy these, you are buying an unauthorized bootleg and you are NOT supporting Buckethead or Brain.
Look, this cd is coming directly from DJ Disk. If you want to call it a bootleg go ahead. I for one do not think it is a scam and will not until someone can proove that DJ Disc does not have a right to sell this. His compositions as a turntablist are the centerpeice of this disc. Since this a rehersal and I assume their are no legaly binding music studio contracts with this, I think it is difficult to say it is a scam.
Who owns the music?
Why does Disc not have a right to sell his music?
Has Disc earned his share from other recordings he has appeared on, such as the first rehearsal disc?
I do not know the answers to these questions but it makes me go hmmmmm....
I decided to buy it and I am not dissapointed.
Who owns the music?
If its a rehersal, i think that the music is owned by those who played in such rehersal
Why does Disc not have a right to sell his music?
He has every right to sell his music, as long as its only HIM who is playing and not someone else who has not given any permision for his apearance to be in such a record (wether he is getting payed or not)
Has Disc earned his share from other recordings he has appeared on, such as the first rehearsal disc?
I am not aware of any specifics but if the album was released under the right channels, Buckethead, Brain, DJ, and everyone else involved are entitled to their fair share of the income. That beign said, i hardly doubt that either Bucket or Brain would be capable of releasing something without doing things the right way.
;D ;D ;D
Just got mine, signed, quite impressed.
It was wrapped in a gay chat sex line newspaper page. Is that normal?

mine was wrapped in a page from a local strret paper. Classifieds, but not gay phone sex adds. Maybe disc likes you.
Seems like it. On the other side is a classified section on medicinal marijuana. Sounds like it could be one or the other.
