The Neon Live
Re: The Neon Live
That the CDs have to wait for the Vinyl is I am sure chart related and to be honest it is pretty annoying. The pre order business is a funny one, LHN can enjoy interest on the money we give them while the fans have almost forgotten they ever ordered it some time in the past. It would only be fair to give us the downloads for both shows NOW. I think I will settle for streaming from now on,

ERASURE: 'THE NEON LIVE' LIMITED-EDITION 3-VINYL EDITION AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER
A reminder, should you need one, that the triple-vinyl coloured-vinyl edition of 'The Neon Live' is still available to pre-order right now from Live Here Now and Lexer Music while stocks last. Although I had hoped to have an update on the shipping date for the 4-CD hardback book and 3-Vinyl editions for you today, that hasn't quite been possible - there are a huge amount of logistical considerations to take into account and I want to be absolutely sure of the facts before I make any public announcements - however I will continue to work on everything with Live Here Now and hopefully we will have news for you soon. Thank you again for your patience which is, as always, very much appreciated.

ERASURE: 'THE NEON LIVE' - PROJECT UPDATE + LIMITED-EDITION 3-VINYL EDITION AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER
As you already know the excellent chaps over at Live Here Now have been doing everything they can to overcome the manufacturing problems which have delayed the release of the Limited-Edition 4-CD Hardback Book and Limited-Edition 3-Vinyl formats of 'The Neon Live'. As you also know we had absolutely everything crossed that we would be able to pull in enough favours to be able to have the albums ready to ship before the end of the year but despite everyone's best efforts that hasn't been possible. The good news is that we can now be fairly sure that both the Limited-Edition 4-CD Hardback Book and the Limited-Edition 3-Vinyl editions of 'The Neon Live' will be pressed, printed and packed and ready to start shipping in the middle of February 2023. I know it's not the news you were hoping to hear, but if you're a regular buyer of vinyl then I suspect you won't be surprised either as so many other vinyl releases are experiencing similar turnaround times. It's not how we wanted it to be but rest assured that we have done absolutely everything in our power to accelerate the process without compromising on quality. The 4-CD Hardback Book edition is sold out as you know but the triple-vinyl coloured-vinyl edition of 'The Neon Live' is still available to pre-order from Live Here Now and Lexer Music while stocks last. Onwards and upwards as they say...

Re: The Neon Live
Not pre-ordering is the lesson learnt from this ridiculous situation. After this lengthy wait a bonus of some sort would be appreciated.

Re: The Neon Live
Repeated delays like these surely erodes the desire of some to just place orders when releases are announced. Now, while there may be zero negligence in how we got to this point with this release, repeated delays like this can be dangerous when it comes to that customer base. Preorders are often the kindling to get the fire of a general release going, so if folks hold off next time, we could get a release that's cancelled at some point.ben wrote: Fri Oct 14, 2022 4:42 pm Not pre-ordering is the lesson learnt from this ridiculous situation.

Really, it wouldn't be that cost-prohibitive to offer some kind of paper goods-based free gift or some online bonus content download for existing orders to be the "makegood" that's needed to prop up that customer base.
Just an idea...

ERASURE: 'THE NEON LIVE' - THE NEWS YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR...
I know I've said this before, but it needs to be said one more time... on behalf of Live Here Now and Erasure I want to say a huge thank you to everyone for all your support of 'The Neon Live' project. To say that things didn't exactly go according to our original plan would be a massive understatement but, finally, I feel confident enough to be able to share the news that printed, pressed and assembled copies of the 4-CD hardback book and 3-Vinyl formats of 'The Neon Live' will be arriving at Live Here Now and Lexer Music late next week and packing and shipping will begin as soon as those stocks arrive so I would expect packages to be on their way to you shortly after that. I haven't seen a finished copy of either edition yet but I have been told that they look absolutely brilliant so, like you, I can't wait to get my hands on one. The 4-CD format is sold out but you should still be able to get your hands on a violet-sparkle triple-vinyl set if you would like to grab one. They are available, alongside the 2-CD 'The Neon Live' right now from Live Here Now and Lexer Music. Keep your fingers crossed everyone, we really are almost there!

Re: The Neon Live
Release Date Change
We have a release date change to let you know about.
The Erasure - The Neon Live - Photobook and 3LP formats now have the release date set as 3rd March 2023. Stock is due to be delivered to us within the next few days, at which point outstanding pre-orders will start to be despatched and will continue over the next week or two.
E4M-this seems a little redundant as I think the March 3rd date is now the ‘official’ release date,but orders will be dispatched as soon as they are packed,so hopefully a week or two before this new announced date

Re: The Neon Live
ERASURE: 'THE NEON LIVE' - SHIPPING OF THE LIMITED-EDITION 4-CD HARDBACK BOOK AND 3-VINYL FORMATS STARTED TODAY
Yes you read that right, following last week's 'The Neon Live' update I am delighted to confirm that finished stock of the 4-CD hardback book and 3-Vinyl editions of the album arrived at Live Here Now and Lexer Music this week as promised and I am even more pleased to be able to report that shipping from both stores has started today and orders will continue to be packed and dispatched over the next few days. The bottom line is that if you have ordered either of those limited-edition formats then your items will be with you very soon! The 4-CD format is sold out but you should still be able to get your hands on a violet-sparkle triple-vinyl set if you would like to grab one. The vinyl edition is available, alongside the 2-CD 'The Neon Live' right now from Live Here Now and Lexer Music. And breathe… phew!
