Title: The Cage and Contagion - the Max!
Post by: JoHackett on Thu, 2005-02-24, 14:31:41
I sign up for the Cage on line (to receive the Max!) and I never received an acknowledgement !?  ???
How can I know if my signing is effective ?

Thanks, JH.

Here is the explanation ! : "Sorry we didn't reply to some of you, but we got about 600 entries in our new page, so that's why we couldn't reply to you all."
But I hope they will reply one day !!!  ;)

It's been month's since I read that line. I think they would have read all 600 by now :-\ It's getting a little annoying :'(

Hmm, the 'The Cage'-site has a good review of the album. I think I would buy it, but only if it's not that expensive, 'cause you can make your own version. (Okay, so it's not mixed by Mr. Clive...)

I signed up to The Cage yesterday, and I'm wondering if I've missed out on getting a copy of Contagion  - The Max? Contagion is probably me favourite prog album, so I'm rather desperate to get hold of a copy. If I have missed out, who would like to take a pile of cash off me for their copy ;D If not, do I just keep checking The Cage shop until it becomes available? Any help would be appreciated, as I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to listen to it. Thanks.

We're all waiting for 'The Max' to show up as a buyable item. No definitive date from either Marcel or Clive, though...

Thanks for the quick response, that's great news though - not about the wait of course  ;) - but certainly that I haven't missed it. Consider my breath, well and truly bated!

That's where I keep looking - also for my 2 missing Cage CDs  :)

Hurry, money needs to be spent  >:(  ;)

It's says right at the top of the Cage news page that Clive and the cover artist are still working on it and it's not ready yet.

The official discography also says that the first 3 Cage CDs are no longer available, so you won't be buying them from the Verglas shop any time soon.

Don't people read anymore?

Steady on there mate, if you look at the Cage releases, the first 2 have download details and the 2nd two have "soon" against them, indicating (one would assume) that they will be available, erm, "soon"  ;)

This was discussed within the forum soon after it started and the Cage Admin guys did confirm a few are left and will be made available for online purchasing.

I know all this because I read it  ;D

Hi there to all of you who are desperately waiting for MAX!

We are trying to get it all together before the guys go on tour. But the band is not the only problem this time...  :D
We contacted David Wyatt to make a brilliant cover for MAX, but the guy is so populair since he start working for Arena that we have quite some problems to reach him. We also tried our friend Matiias Noren who did the artwork for Unlocking The Cage. But he's not available at the moment. If there's somebody out there who has a great idea for the artwok to be designed, please let me know!
We decided today that we will be using the current mix we have here instead of mixing it all again. It sounds great to us and we don't want to spend more time waiting for this release. So please be a little more patient with us. We do our best!

And for the Cage Page; we updated the page with a lot of 'old' interviews, reviews and more. If you have signed up and did not received the first Cage Newsletter last week, please make sure to sign up agian. We received about 50 emails back because the address was wrong.

All the best!
Marcel

I used to be pretty good with the crayons in 3rd grade, but I don't think I'm up to doing a cover for "Max."

It's good to bump this topic once in a while!
If we keep quiet about it they might think that we don't really care for this release.
So here's the bump to show the band that we care! ;D

The Max is dead, so worship the other albums ???

This is getting a bit of a soap, i have no illusions anymore on this album; now they're writing and recording new stuff, than a new tour ... they'll always have something around not to spent time on getting this mastering done :-[

A true pitty, as yesterdays gigs @ Boerderij proved once again what a fine album Contagion is!

SURPRISE US AND GET THE BLOODY THING PRESSED!! ;)

Take care,
Alex :)
