I ordered mine from amazon.ca . Don't order from amazon.com because it will be an import and they may not have it.

HMV.Ca or AMAZON.CA

I think both deliver to the USA.

I got my copy in the mail on Thursday. Now I have two. I love this CD TONS> I think seeing him do the songs live before actually owning the CD helped a great deal cause when I hear them I still see MATT/Band performing them. Just like when Spiritual Machines came out. I saw OLP the day it was released so I am use to the songs done live.

For anyone who saw Matt in Calgary. I wanted to know did the band show up in Cowboy hats for Hopeless? I thkn Pat was joking aobut them wearing cowboy hats when they hit AB.

I have to say I still love Bad Idea. I am also really digging North America For Life alot now. Can't choose favorite song yet.

did you get regular or digi-pak. My friend got Digi-pak mailed out to her. I forgot where she ordered it from. I have heard that Maple Leaf sent out Plastic. Just curious.

I probably won't get my CD in the mail till next week sometime. I choose(SNAIL MAIL as they called it). I don't care cause I was lucky enough to be in Canada the day it was released or else I would be anticipating the arrival of my CD.As far as the autograph goes I really don't care.. I got it when I saw him on my Avalanche CD, and a few years ago he signed my MGB cd's so I am cool. The one thing I love is the guitar pick I got. It is just grey and says Nylon on it, but these are the ones Matt uses. I had him write MG on the pick I got.

I am really digging this CD alot.

yah i got a plastic cd case, but i really dont care

Isn't HMV's site a part of Amazon now?

My only gripe with White Light at the moment is that Matt hasn't done much with his singing.

Some of it is fantastic and new, like on Blue Skies and Ex Pats, but other tracks are pretty standard, especially after the soaring vocals on Avalanche.

Baby Thief · Post by **Baby Thief** » 6/29/2004, 9:01 am

Yeah that is really the only thing i see wrong with it. But i think some of the songs he was singing needed the type of voice he sang with. Like WSH. The last line had that really airy, cool, energized feeling to it. It made not sound like he was singing it spectacularly, but it fits the song perfectly.

I think he accomplished what he set out to do. The last album was all about his voice, this one he wanted to be more sound driven a la Buddy Holly...

Alright, so I desperately need Big City Life, All Together, and Pony Boy.

However, I'd like to circumvent the hub if at all possible.

Can someone with these tracks please add me on msn and send me them?

Please and thank you? :puppyeyes:

Did anyone here go see Matt when he came to Winnipeg on the 18th? He was fucking amazing...

Tattooed Angels · Post by **Tattooed Angels** » 6/30/2004, 3:25 pm

I just read on the MG board that at the show last night in Banff- 2 of his teeth got chipped when he was hit in the face with the mic stand due to someone being pushed into it. He also got a fat lip. The set was cut short due to it.

Poor Matt. Some birthday present. 2 broken teeth.
