Happy Wednesday!

Today we start the pre-orders for SUNDOWNER "We Chase The Waves". Im going to do pretty much the exact deal I did with the SKIBA pre-orders, but this time only 200 available and the color of the vinyl will be different. So if youre wondering why the text is similar... well, is because I just cut and pasted from two weeks ago. YAY!!

The street date for this release is AUG. 10th, but we will ship these out on JULY 20th, so you will most certainly receive this before the street date.

These are limited to 200 package deals. Once theyre gone, theyre gone. After these sell through, we will only be selling black vinyl for mailorder.

SUNDOWNER PACKAGE DEAL: $28
Heres what you get in the package deal:
1 copy on clear blue (limited to 200)
1 copy on clear green (limited to 200)
Sundowner cd (matte finish digipak with 8 page full color booklet)
SUNDOWNER poster
SUNDOWNER button
SUNDOWNER t-shirt
Hope you agree that this deal is pretty darn sweet. I was looking at what other some of the other labels charge for vinyl and Ive come to the conclusion that were the best. Give it up for us. And if you are thinking of buying this, I would act fast. I truly believe we will sell out very quickly.

The SKIBA deal sold out in 5 days and I expect the same excitement for the SUNDOWNER deal.

There was a misprint on our website saying that the SKIBA orders were shipping JUNE 20th, but that was to read JULY 20th. Sorry sorry sorry..

And thats it. Keeping the focus on SUNDOWNER. YAY!!

Peace, mike park
