Whole new look with the trailer posted. Perhaps someone was reading the comments on this board.

Media Section and other items
 
Media section has 10 photos from the Seeds We Sow cover shoot and 4 live shots from previous concerts. Like many others, I don't care for the font, but at least it is a major upgrade of information. They even list upcoming concerts.

Peestie 08-23-2011 06:02 PM

Finally! It's quite a bit better. Still plenty of things add but at least you can navigate it and find the tour date easily. There are also sound clips from all of his previous albums as well.

Better. Hopefully more will be added.

Events
 
Unfortunately, the events section is not up to date - the Chicago concert is not listed and the Conan appearance is not listed either. Disappointed they don't list the DVD release.

Sigh... I knew it was wishful thinking that something for this album would have been well organised... Still, maybe they'll keep adding to it and make it a good site instead of merely a functional one.

D.W-Suite 08-23-2011 06:16 PM

Excellent :) It looks slick enough now, here's hoping the person responsible doesn't think their job is done for the next few months....

MacMan 08-23-2011 06:25 PM

Looks awesome... Yeah, it needs to be maintained, and not abandoned now.

BTFLCHLD 08-23-2011 06:34 PM

lots of shows missing; design/function is a tad amateurish...but eh I wont complain much if they keep updated on a regular basis and fill with LOTS AND LOTS of goodies.

mylittledemon 08-23-2011 07:40 PM

It'll likely fall by the wayside when the new album dies down. What's sad is there is a wealth of material that the site could be inundated with to make it cool. I'm wicked glad the new album is near...

Silver Springs 08-23-2011 07:59 PM

And they say bitc.hing and moaning gets you nowhere in life.... Well done, site designers. Only took you this long to do your jobs properly. Well..I say properly. Properly in a half arsed kind of way, of course. The site coding probably interfered with a Star Trek marathon or sale on Pringles and Goldfish Crackers.

SuperFleetwood 08-23-2011 08:30 PM

lindsey needs a new website manager lol!!

I doubt "we" had anything to do with it and the fact that he's got a new record coming out was everything.

Regina 08-23-2011 09:44 PM

WE are stronger than you know...

Hey, it's about damned time. It didn't take me 45 minutes and the help of a retired Secret Service agent to find the tour dates! That's progress.

You can so see the guyliner on that blow-up of the album cover. It's more subtle than the Tusk era (what isn't???) but it's there.

I like the picture on the Media section. Looks like he's reflecting on the meaning of life or lost his way to the men's room.

ZachTroutman 08-23-2011 10:21 PM

Duuuuude, Lindsey is glossed up in these photos to almost cartoonish degrees. He seriously looks like a watercolor.

mylittledemon 08-23-2011 10:28 PM

yeah someone got Photoshop happy! I do like the one of him here:

Still.....I like to believe our moaning helped even just an iota, haha. Even if it wasn't in any peripheral way.

I love them all. They just prove that we needn't worry that his hairline is receding at all. He's still very much hot to trot :p

Before anyone starts complaining about Lindsey's site, y'all need to check out Stevie's site, which is permanently in Shangri-la mode. You wouldn't even know there was a new album released earlier this year.

Is there another Stevie Nicks official site? Because I can only ever seem to find Nicks Fix :s

Believe it or not, that is the official Stevie Nicks site. It is hard to believe, isn't it?

Reprise put together a really beautiful site for this album... What they should have done is somehow turned the nicksfix into this as I don't think it gets the attention it deserves.

Flash looks so good. But the thing is after all the money we spend putting it into sites, over the next years, we'll probably end up taking it out, because so many people are using cell phones and tablets these days and it just doesn't work on those.

Michele

GoS 08-24-2011 12:08 PM

Oh my god there's actually a half-decent and usable Lindsey Buckingham site that has information from the last year on it... and it looks really good. Never thought I'd live to see the day.

Seriously? Jeez. I thought there was a site I just wasn't finding. Nicksfix is like a substandard fan made site, to me :s

Flash should work on any device that doesn't begin with the an "A" and ends with "pple."

I have an Ipad, but not an Iphone. I have other phones and flash works, but not very quickly.

Today, I was actually looking at the Ledge using my phone as a hotspot and it was FAST. For some reason I must have have been in just the right location to hit my 4G sweet spot. 95% of the time, it's not a very smooth experience. And that's what I thought when I went to LB's new home page. But LB's site looks really nice and the colors show up extremely well.

Michele

Nico 08-24-2011 11:16 PM

I agree Michele, his new site is a VAST improvement and I hope it continues to be so. I love the upgrade, LB. Keep it coming!

Oh no, not at all! I loves me some Apple! And I will be one of those nutbags camping out for the iPhone 5 in October. But I think their aversion to Adobe Flash is rather silly, ne c'est pas?

LB Freakazoid 09-21-2011 02:16 PM

I think I just felt the earth stop spinning....
LB's website just sent an email announcing his album and tour...
They're slower than pre-internet:rolleyes:

Betsy 09-21-2011 02:32 PM

A lady at the Denver concert told me that she "almost" didn't come to the theater, figuring that the show had been canceled since it never appeared on his website.

Jessica and her mom did a much better job, in my humble opinion...

Spikey 09-21-2011 07:26 PM

I was worried about the Tulsa show that only just got put on his site not being real. Thank God :)


Although, props where they're due, slowness aside- the CD/t-shirt bundle is cool, i'm in for one. And the store is a million times better than what it was now.

Ladies, I want to see someone in a SWS tee :)

Haha. I got that email too. I just opened it, pointed and laughed before going about my day. Thank you email for notifying me of the fact that the tour I bought tickets to last month is actually happening. I didn't realised. I thought I'd bought tickets for Snoopy On Ice...

iamnotafraid 09-21-2011 09:58 PM

Just curious, did anyone else get backstage passes
mailed to them (one for each ticket bought)? Thanks
LindseyBuckingham.com. If I hadn't noticed the .com
on the return label, the trash might have got them.

Me too. And I still don't have the album yet and I definitely want that shirt! So it all works out for me.
