Awesome. Went to a screening of their documentary over the winter with John Doe in attendance. He sort of hinted there may be something new in the works.

What Documentary?

I bought the Green Vinyl (with the Download)...

I saw them in November, and I think this is one of the only live versions recorded...

Curious about the documentary too. Was it The Unheard Music, or something more recent?

Re: X - Alphabetland - unexpected new album released 4/22/20
 

Yeah, ithe documentary was Unheard Music from the mid-80s. There was a restored print that recently circulated around some of the art houses and there was a Q&A with John Doe and the director in attendance.

John Doe did a book signing earlier in the day so got to chat with him for a bit.

Damn, missed the colored vinyl options. Looks like they sold out. I did the VIP last year with their tour and got the mini-vinyl that was part of that. Can't wait until things get back to normal and they tour again.

I ended up with all the colors except Yellow (Still looking), but got Blue, White, Red and Green.

Ordered the Los Angeles Gold Edition (500 copies) that they announced today on their new chat for the video for "I Gotta Fever"

BTW I got something in the video, since I got credit at the end...they said they used everything that was submitted.

Thanks for posting! Forgot to check the video and saw my submissions also got in there in the blink if you miss it portions. Cool to see my name in the credits.

Re: X - Alphabetland - unexpected new album released 4/22/20
 

They said they had over 700 submissions and used them all.

My copy is blue. I'm not obsessive enough to want all the color options.
