3 Tier project

Post by Charles »

"Perkins used to talk Jane's about having a "3 tier project" with Rhino/Warner. The first tier was Up From The Catacombs and the second tier was A Cabinet Of Curiosities. The third tier was always assumed to be remastered/deluxe editions of Ritual and Nothing's Shocking and/or a re-release of Gift"

Anyone?? Mabe we can ask Perky or Perry?

Mike?

The 3rd tier was a new album I believe.

I asked Perk about this back in '09 and I could be remembering wrong but I'm 99% certain the third tier was GIFT.
I'm not positive but that's what I think he said.

No idea what the hold up on GIFT is.
I know Perry did a directors commentary for it years ago and there was talk of it being released but we got nada.
It's a shame too because a blue-ray release of it would afford the band a great opputunity to expand it and stuff it full of extras.

If only for all three :!: :heart: :nod:

It would definitely be interesting to hear Perry's commentary for it with all the time that has passed - but I imagine the whole thing is kind of weird for everyone to work on.

it'd be really cool if Casey did an audio commentary for it - even if it had to be put out as an "unofficial" online extra :nod:
