I hope it's the one that opens the official trailer (although the 30-sec preview from amazon.de doesn't seem to confirm it). It sounds absolutely bad-ass.

The opening track is definitely the one that the trailer ends with though.

I'm really curious about the track with John Carpenter.

The charge is visible on my PayPal account, but hasn't actually been charged yet of my bank account. I hope they hurry up, I really just want the package the 16th...

As I've been growing very tired of MyDisc "not" Direct lately I grabbed the regular pre-orders from Amazon instead, as usual. :?
I've tried transfer the money directly from my Visa card but all I get is a "confirming order" e-mail and half an hour later a "problem with your order - canceled order" e-mail.
I just can't figure out what's not working for them. Am I living in the wrong country?

Doesn't seem to me they are invested in selling this album. All the stories about orders, their inability to tell their customers about product details...

That being said I'll be getting a leaked version first and when someone ACTUALLY RECEIVES their order and describes what's in it I'll decide which official release to purchase.

No, you're not - same here for me in Germany. Ordered weeks ago and used paypal for payment and received the same email last Friday. I re-ordered with my MasterCard, not working... I re-ordered again with paypal. Received an order confirmation, but nothing else so far. Paypal shows now 2 orders...
Never had any issues with buying stuff over the internet and I have doubts that I will receive anything next week...

[Update]
Just checked my paypal account: the recent order states 'closed', the first one 'open'. So let's see...

I chose credit card as the payment method in July (for Part 1, in late August for Part 2) since I got the impression that using PayPal would have withdrawn the funds immediately.

In any case, I'm not particularly sure if the current largest charge on my bank account is for the deluxe set (and if it's not, well, that'd be far more worrying :P) as it still doesn't match the price tag in the confirmation email I got in July. Haven't received any messages from MyPlayDirect concerning the order either.

Honestly, it's quite worrisome especially when you keep in mind what happened with the Vinyl Factory releases in the summer. First delayed, then shipped without any inner sleeves or sleeve protection, with pieces of sawdust on the records... I thought they'd manage some degree of standards considering they also made those ridiculously expensive Pet Shop Boys special vinyl sets in the past. :roll:

No idea why there's a lot of carelessness in the air with these new JMJ releases, but I really hope I'm gonna have my deluxe boxset in pristine condition on the 16th or at least next week (I bought the Queen boxset and while it appears to be mostly pristine - haven't been able to listen to them yet - the outermost cardboard cover was crumpled under the heavy box itself, so minus points to Amazon.co.uk for that).

And where is that Paris La Defense extended anniversary edition on BluRay anyway? :P Yeah, I know that's never going to happen.

Money for both volumes of fan box set came out of Paypal at the same time. The payment for the first volume was taken at £10.00 higher than the price as they have added both postage and packing to volume 1 order.

I left the money in Paypal account so as not to take from my bank account.

You really that negative about T&T? No redeeming factors for you?
