Because (as stated earlier) Mike has already said that there was misprinted information in the programme and he "appreciates the continued lack of inquiries".

 

The entire existence of this thread is still dependent on what exactly MM meant by a misprint...

 

Having said that, I'm firmly in the camp of it being JW listed as conductor. It makes complete marketing sense for HP to come out now, when FB hype couldn't be bigger.

That's not a misprint. Nobody did erroneously write that Williams would be conducting after he had already cancelled. Obviously the programme was written (and probably printed) before the cancellation. Neither do I see any reason for appreciating a lack of inquiries in that regard.

What? JW falls ill and MM appreciates people in the soundtrack community not approaching him for details. What part of that doesn't make sense?

 

Surely something that falls foul of the 'correct at time of printing' is a misprint? Or does it have to be something that was incorrect at the time of writing?

Otherwise I wouldn't call it a misprint. Plus it says "programme correct at time of print", clearly to indicate that any last minute changes may not be reflected by the programme. And Williams is listed as the concert's conductor multiple time throughout the programme, so it wouldn't be "a" misprint.

[Richard Penna 3,673]

If that's the case then we're all setting ourselves up for a very big disappointment.

[bollemanneke 3,338]

So do we think HP is the surprise title that comes out on 13 November? I think it would be perfect timing to coincide with the worldwide FB2 release.

[Richard Penna 3,673]

What's happening on 13th November? I might've missed something.

[Marian Schedenig 8,174]

I still expect "misprint" is intentionally vague, and the real error is merely that the Potter expansions haven't yet actually been "produced", or at least not to the point of being ready (conceptually, or more likely just contractually and physically) for release. Perhaps they were included in the blurb because they were supposed to be ready for release in time for the concert, or perhaps whoever wrote it didn't have all the information and assumed that they would be ready when they were never planned to be announced this early. Either way, endless discussion on this point are (forgive the pun) pointless, as if these assumptions are correct, Mike Matessino cannot and/or does not want to elaborate. We'll just have to wait and see.

[Holko 9,499]

What surprise title?

[bollemanneke 3,338]

Someone told me that the latest LLL flyer stated that the 13th would see the release of a surprise title.

 

Also, you guys are forgetting that an official channel (forgot which one) said the concert program would contain a surprise announcement. Why are we still debating whether the HP announcement was a mistake? Do we honestly want to believe that was a typo?

[Richard Penna 3,673]

I don't know who to believe right now

[Bespin 8,480]

Trust your feelings, use the Force.

I have no clue what you're talking about here with any kind of "surprise" title in November? Where are you getting this from?  MV posted the November flier on their Facbook page back on November 1st right here:

And that image shows Airport '77 / Airport '79 2CD set, Die Hard 3CD set, and The Haunting of Hill House as their November 13th titles.  That's it.

Huh?  What are you talking about here?  Where are you getting these claims from?

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

Surprise!

[bollemanneke 3,338]

Okay, so...

 

It turns out that the person claiming that we would get one more surprise title on the 13th mistook the LLL logo for an upcoming release, not sure what happened there...

 

The very special announcement I was referring to must have been something mentioned on Classsic FM, because we suddenly talk about it on page 41 of the concert thread.

 

[Holko 9,499]

Yes, the presenter said the announcer would come up now with a very special announcement. Which turned out to be the LSO members telling stories, John listening and his letter.

[bollemanneke 3,338]

Ah, that was it... Well, anyway, I still think it's ridiculous to assume that HP blurb was a mistake. You don't make mistakes lke that.

[Richard Penna 3,673]

Yes that's my source of confusion.

 

The blurb also mentioned several other expansions that haven't come out yet, and HP was very prominent. If that's a mistake, it's a huge one.

 

God dammit, why did he have to tell us there was a typo!

[bollemanneke 3,338]

To make your unbearable predicament even more unbearable.

[1977 1,743]

Don't these major film franchises usually place embargoes on releases of stuff pertaining to legacy entries when there is a new film on the way? Something about not diluting the marketing push.

 

Just saying. I'd love to be wrong though. 

[bollemanneke 3,338]

What do you mean, that they would want all the attention to go to FB2? So far people don't seem to like it...

Let me reiterate just to put any and all doubt to rest: as was confirmed by Mike Matessino on the program to An Celebration of John Williams in Concert at the Royal Albert Hall, expanded editions of the Meastro’s three Harry Potter scores are coming soon. When? No one is talking in order to avoid spoiling the surprise. Is it happening, though? Yes.

 

It is simply a matter of waiting for the official announcement with release date and details. It is happening, though.

 

With that, I will check back on Black Friday.

[Arpy 4,145]

I'll check back five times a day until Black Friday.

[redishere 697]

Guess these three badboys will be stuck on repeat in my cd player until some light will be shed on this BF ordeal.

 

 

[Jay 37,300]

Those are some big stickers

Early 2000's soundtrack promotion!

“Enhanced CD contains the video of the smash hit Hedwig’s Theme”

 

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

Anyone else check if Star Trek: First Contact and Nixon are still compatible?

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

Did you affix the decals to the jewel cases?

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

Sony Playstation, Sega Saturn, and Windows 95 CD-ROM. Don't choke, the world is counting on you.

I didn’t: bought those CDs in 2001, 2002 and 2004. Stickers were the thing back in the day, apparently

I tried once, those abominations tore in half, left a scarily semen-like gluey stain on the jewel case: never tried it again.

Same. All of my SW prequel albums have like 3 sticker each, one of them I tried to gently take off, and it tore in half leaving the residue. Ah the days before plastic wrap...

[Arpy 4,145]

I put the little stickers on the LotR CR's on the front when I got them, mistakenly thinking I liked the idea, then a few weeks ago I tried to peel them off and it pulled some of the cover with it. Now there's a small white patch on the front of RotK grrr.

[Nick Parker 3,040]

Y'all know there's stuff out there to remove that, yeah?

Oof. Damn, that sucks!

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

I knew there were sticker transferers among us!

[Laserschwert 473]

But we need those stickers. Otherwise how should we be able to find those desktop wallpapers and windows system sounds when we need them? Put in each CD and check?

[Arpy 4,145]

I like the stickers sometimes, if I'm the one owning the cds, who else is gonna care?

My thoughts exactly. I don’t mind the “limited 2CD edition” stickers. The only ones bothering me are the SIAE silvery stickers: only italian stores have them (SIAE is the italian society managing royalties and copyright), and they are almost impossible to peel off ‘cause they are heavily glued and they are already sliced in six or seven wavy pieces, as you can see in the picture I posted. Hate those things.

[1977 1,743]

I use benzine with a soft cloth to remove sticky residue from jewel cases. Works beautifully.

 

The worst stickers are those white bar code things stuck to the top of the jewel cases on US issues, especially when they get old.

Precisely, it's plastic, not like the paper CR boxes (shame on whoever that was!), I'd start with just scrubbing with my nail and go on to alcohol if needed.Anything to get those useless monstrosities from cluttering and obscuring the artwork.
