It seems like they were passing out promo copies of TISL like candy back in 2001..I who have no industry connections at all managed to get my hands on one in late March of 2001..I guess it is for the best that such tight wraps are being kept on IYD.It really builds the anticipation.

I got mine at Tower Records and a TISL poster for pre-ordering it there. They had a listening party and raffle, but only a few people showed up so I won. By then the whole album was already leaked on one of the P2P sites. I remember I had about 6 burned CD's because every time I found another song leaked I had to burn another one until I finally had them all!

He personally gave me a promotional CD of TISL back in 2001 (don't ask me how). At the time he knew I was a big fan but I wasn't a die-hard like I am today. I had no idea of the value it would come to have to me but today it is one of my most treasured possessions because she gave it to him.
Here's some evidence and although I know it doesn't really prove anything since I could have bought it at a record store you guys should know me well enough by now to know I don't lie about sh*t like this. Just something cool that he and I totally bonded over back in the day.
P.S. he's a really, really nice guy.

Cool story! He seems like a nice guy even through his tweets. Thanks for sharing!

Wow Tower Records...what a California institution!When Tower went down I think the last of my youth went with it.

I'm actually kind of glad there has been virtually no leakage this time .I know I don't have the willpower not to listen.
