I think DA should have released this stuff as an official CD. I'm sure we would have all purchased it and who knows maybe they would have made more money than by the auction. Or they could do this in adition to the auction.
For example, XTC released a CD called Apple Venus Volume One. Then they released a CD of the demo versions of the same album. I actually own both versions. It's a great album. They did the same thing with Wasp Star: Apple Venus Volume Two. (I only purchased the original of that one.)

Just wondering what my chances are.

So you like the demo of Wasp Star? I take it it is more stripped down too?

Something like this would take three cds to fill and considering the expense, would be a difficult one to make profitable.

So make CD-R's and sell a 3 CD set for $30. I'd buy it.

well- starting the bidding at $100 pretty much made it clear that I'm not going to have a chance of winning anything in these auctions. I guess I'll just have to content myself with posting like a damb fool.

How high do you think this will go?
I am waiting to see what it's up to next week. As much as I want to see it go for a high price, for Terry, I don't want to push it out of my own price range.

I think there will be a few items offered later on that will be in a lower price range. We may even offer a couple of things exclusively to members of the Avocado Club.
We set this one kind of high just because of what it was... I really didn't want to see it go for $30. It deserved much more than that.

Maybe Jeffrey can win the auction and then make CD's of the cassettes to sell.

We'll put items up as Terry makes them available.. no real schedule to it.
re: the Avocado Club...
we've also been talking about an exclusive video release for club members.. we're still a ways off from that happening, but we would like to do it.
re: the buechner tapes...
It's possible that an ep or maybe a fan club disc will be released that will include a few songs from these tapes... or maybe a couple of demos will be included in a DA box set. It won't even be close to everything that is included in the auction, but at least everyone would get a chance to hear a little of it. It's also very likely that one or two tracks will be used in the "making of" video.
