DIGITAL BLUNDER FIX - Get Correct mp3 HERE.

Mon Oct 12, 2009 4:35 pm

UPDATE I am being told WB is having the song taken down... like nowish. Tuesday at 8:30 pacific. I still don't understand what went wrong. They'll fix it soon. Meanwhile, download this if you want the song:

Away We Go - non-chipmunk version

Nnote: it's not like this is an important song. It is important that it's heard at the normal speed it was recorded in (garage band). Leave a comment about whatever if you please and thank you. Also, my guess is - the file will get fixed and you'll be able to dl the correct version from iTunes, etc.

-----------------------------------------------------
Digital Blunder means: we all heard the Amazon preview of the Fire Kite ep. One of the song clips was jacked... Sped up; talking Chipmonk speed. I emailed wb last week about it... Never heard back. A knowledgeable fan said this was common w/ Amazon and not to worry. I was wrong not to worry.

It's now for sale in iTunes and Amazon that way. !@&?!#%! I emailed WB just moments ago (angry-angry) from the road (iPhone) and got back responses with tons of cc's who are "on it". Meanwhile Alvin and Theadore are alive on line. AhaahhHHH!!!

If I don't get a solution soon, I'm just going to put a link up on this page and give it away. We are on the road so I have no FTP access right now. Getting close to El Paso... Destination Las Cruces.

Will keep you posted on this massive digital blunder. Apologiies.
Otherwise, hope you are enjoying the other tunes. Thanks. boyd


P.s. I am furious.

I just purchased mine to find out it is still not fixed : / Boyd, you're the man if you can fix this. Well you're the man either way for the website and the other million band related things you do.. but I still wouldn't mind a fixed copy

The word is being spread, at least ... And I'm too busy listening to the other songs to care, anyway. But yeah, pretty lame on their behalf. It better be fixed soon for their sake!

I say we embrace it Years from now this will be Eisley trivia, and the newbie fans will ask old-school fans for copies of the limited-edition "Away We Go" demo. Like how I prize my first-edition Goblet of Fire, complete with mistaken order of parents appearing.

the entire EP is the freakin bomb dot com either way - even the awkward sped up track is totally awesome! i love it, even if sherri sounds like the secret sister of alvin simon and theodore

Well I hope they don't decide to post it for ALL to download since only some people paid to download the EP. Maybe their should be a proof of purchase so then those that have that can download the official. Just a suggestion.
Sucks though. Major labels need to up their game!!!
