Abbey Road Live sadly dropped the ball. i wouldn't be holding the band accountable for dealing with a bad label. Michael T On 1/18/2015 11:46 AM, Jason wrote:
Yeah I missed the Facebook posts too, that's cool that they have addressed it but I'm still wondering if it will ever be released as we are already passed the second week of January now. In any event thanks for copying the posts here.
Colesly has always been awesome with so I might order the new box, but part of me doesn't want to buy anything Orb related anymore. :/

Many thanks for that... especially for those of us not on Facebook. Shame they can update their main online portal to reflect this news/update... but good news of sorts despite the delays...

A message from Thomas....
a very dark matter! we know, many of you are very disapointed about the still missing dark matter CD/DVD project. so are we. it's such an embarassement for us! if we would have known that entering our liaison with abbey road productions would lead us into this dark alley of business perversion we wouldn't have thought twice about not even bothering. mixing has been made, covers have been delieverd, mastering has been done, EVERYTHING is in place since ages and they still let us down. it's the superdark spot in an otherwise very encouraging year. the touring has been going so well and we thank you very much for coming out to the shows and make them happen. we are very sorry about this unfinished business and yet seem to have so little influence in resolving the frustration. please keep the faith and continue to carry the orb flag with pride. it IS going to happen and we will make up for it. on the bright side, we wish you all happy holidays and hope you are open for the surprises we have in the bag for you in 2015.
And Alex says......
Merry Xmas to all orbiters ! I'm writing with a sad heart , we tried to get the orb live 2014 out b4 Xmas for everyone who has bought into the live Project . We have done as much as we could do . But we are not Abbey Road & working with them comes at a price . When December comes they close the offices & turn the faxes off & ignore artists . It's unfortunately classic major record label behaviour around Xmas . In the long run , we should have this sorted by the 2nd week in January . It's really to go , just need the label to pull their collective fingers out . Happy new year & don't eat too much ! One love Alex Paterson

Nope, nothing heard here... and I was only wondering the other day where this was sat. Did you download the .mp3’s they offered in what appeared to be a stopgap?
Cheers

Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has requested a refund yet for the Brixton CD/DVD set since it is been almost a year now since they went up for pre-sale nine months ago.
Has anyone heard any update about this? Pretty frustrating that this is taking so long and I have to say this combined with a mis-ship that I got from The Orb website that was never corrected have me wondering what is going on with The Orb's management/merchandising team.
If anyone did request a refund, was it an easy process?
Thanks for any info!
Jason
