FYI, we've just announced a bunch of DiscLive/Pixies news, including the immediate availability of 1,000 copies of the Pixies Live at the Fujirock Festival. See below:
Pixies Continue with Immediatek's DiscLive on Fall Tour
In addition to 50+ shows on their fall tour, DiscLive will sell limited edition recordings of Pixies concert in Japan and make concerts available via NetBurn
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 11, 2004-- As has been expected, DiscLive, Inc., the live recording unit of Immediatek, Inc. (OTCBB:ITEK - News), announced today that it will follow the Pixies on their fall tour and provide coveted, limited edition, live discs from most shows starting with the September 18 performance at the Austin City Limits Festival in Austin, Texas, and ending on the east coast in December. In addition to the limited edition physical collectibles, DiscLive will implement a NetBurn Pass program allowing fans to make CDs at home from any Pixies concerts on this tour or from any Pixies concert DiscLive has previously recorded. NetBurn(TM) is a technology developed by DiscLive's parent company Immediatek that allows consumers to download and burn CDs from a concert usually within a few hours after the performance has ended.
According to Zach Bair, CEO and Founder of Immediatek, DiscLive is expected to release live discs from 50+ shows on the Pixies fall tour, with edition sizes ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 depending on the show. The consumer price of the collectible discs will be $25. The NetBurn Pass will be offered to consumers at $18 for a single concert, $59 for five concerts, and $99 for ten concerts of the fan's choosing.
This past spring, DiscLive sold out all 16,000 units produced on the Pixies warm-up tour as well as a limited edition of 6,000 CDs from four shows at the Brixton Academy in London, England, in June.
In addition to the fall tour, DiscLive will make available 1,000 units of the Pixies July 31 performance at the Fuji Rock Festival in Naeba, Japan. Preorders for this special collectible disc are available now at www.disclive.com, and the products will be shipped to consumers in late August.
Sami Valkonen, President of DiscLive said: "The Pixies will always remain the band that broke live discs as a mainstream proposition. Nothing could be more thrilling to us than to continue our collaboration with this great band by covering their fall tour. With the Pixies every show is a surprise, and I am sure there will be a lot of great surprises for the fans during this three month tour across the continent."
DiscLive is the pioneer in the quickly growing market of live discs made available immediately after the concert. The company is expanding its business rapidly as the live disc phenomena continues to grow.
DiscLive has completed tours from Vermont to California as well as in Canada and the United Kingdom, with its state-of-the-art mobile recording and production facility that can produce 1,000 high quality CDs in less than 20 minutes. The New York-based company is headed by Rich Isaacson, CEO, and Sami Valkonen, President, each of whom have extensive track records in the music industry. A May 2 headline in The New York Times dubbed the DiscLive offer of legal, high-quality CDs made available immediately after the concert "Rock's Best New Souvenir."

My Fuji cd's arrived today - it took a month to receive them from the so-called shipping date. It sounds great, I love the packaging, it has a tracklist, they are real silver-pressed cd's (not cdr's), and I'm pretty happy. |

Hi Jake,
I don't know if you're still around. But today I was feeling bad for all the folks that can't get Disc Live recordings due to the ownership of the venue.
I don't know if you guys have looked into this or not but, basically, I was wondering if there would be a way around that to mail the CDs to those people vs. handing them out live.
Another possible way is to cirvumvent the CC patent after the show at an alternate location nearby. Finally, perhaps Disc Live can just post it on the internet 48 hours or even a week later. From what I read about the CC patent, the first idea could be a way to let people get the recording of the show they went to due the fact it isn't available immediately after the show. The others have a potential as well.
It just isn't cool that CC is preventing people's freedom to listen to their Pixies.
Thanks Jake!

Damn, I'm a little mad that DiscLive and the Pixies are only planning to start selling shows after the Austin date. I'll be at the Bend show (Sept. 4th) and I'm hoping that DiscLive can make it out there. Seems that if DiscLive can go to Japan and do this that they can go to Oregon! lol

One thing I'm curious about re: disclive, is, who has the rights to the recording after it sells out? Could the band release any of the material to retail, as a compilation or 'reissues', somewhere down the road? |

Nope. It was definitely pearl jam. definitely.

Why only 1-2000? How can it "sell out" if it's just electrons? |

i have many questions about the fall tour:
will the cd be cdr (as the warm up tour) or silver cd (as the brixton ones)?
(i understand that the cd sold right after the show are cdr, but why the cds that are sent can't be silver?)
and will there be a special price for the full shows?
the cover on disclive says that the fuji show was on the 30... who is right? 30 or 31?
...i saw a bootleg called gouge away on ebay from a disclive show...
this was my first message... i'm a poor french... but FB is in love with my country... |

Hi Jake, when's the Fuji CVD actually on-sale? It shows up as 'Coming Soon' on the site or have they all sold out?
Thanks

Yeah Jake, you could mention to the band that it would likely boost online sales (not that they need boosting) if they bust out a surprise song now and then. As it stands, someone could obtain a couple shows and pretty much have the reunion's full repertoire.
But I know they've got to think about the live audience first. I mean, the hardcore fans here don't necessarily care to hear "Monkey Gone To Heaven" for the 57th time of the tour, but the fans in the venue might really want/expect to hear it. And inversely, while people on this forum might go crazy hearing a relatively obscure/overlooked song like "Havalina" or "The Sad Punk", the crowd might not appreciate it as much.
Well, sorry to ramble. I'm just thinking that it'd be nice if the shows were a little more distinguishable, from a collector's point of view. |

Oh well, thanks anyways Jake, I'm sure I'll pick up a couple random shows, especially if they play Bam Thwok or some more Bossanova/Trompe material.

No, we're not able to record the London gig. As for the gigs before 9/18 in North America, I don't think we're recording them either. It could change, I'm sure, but as far as I know we are starting on September 18. |

No chance of doing the Forum Gig then Jake?
