After a gruelling 3 year wait, Mayday has finally announced the release of their 8th studio album!!! Thankfully I managed to survive the three year gap with 2 concerts, 1 movie, and if I’ve calculated correctly, 4 singles.. (counting the latest album single release) *phew!*

Probably should’ve posted this earlier, but it has been a busy week! (plus I admit my blogging has been quite lazy..)

Preorders started 29th November, till 12 December (me old man’s birthday tomorrow!).

Had to scour the web for a few days to finally find 5music.com.tw to pre-order my copy. I usually order off 滾石酷踢網gogo-shopping.com.tw but they were ‘out of stock’ for the pre-orders (I’m not sure how that makes sense either..) so I had to go searching for another website that would allow international pre-orders. Thankfully Five Music 五大唱片 was there to save the day(:

Put down my name for the 朋友分享版 5cd+5公仔套裝 for $79AUD ($2438TWD) + $24AUD ($760TWD) shipping/fees. It was my only choice other than yesasia, and EVERYONE knows that yesasia is always a MAJOR rip, so I think I got quite a bargain. Besides I am an avid 五迷 and proud to be(:

Now the waiting game, the release date is due to be the 16th December so hopefully my copy wont be delayed by all the Christmas post.

After pre-ordering, I got super excited and started loading my new iPhone with my Mayday music. Unfortunately my normal music library is on my iMac (which apparently is too aged to connect with the iP4s youngen.. too much of a generation gap between Tiger OS and IP 5.0.1, pfft.. one thing that I despise about half eaten apples..) so I had to pull out all ye olde compact discs and load them onto my laptop iTunes, then onto the phone.

Not all of my Mayday collection, but just their 7 studio albums + a select few of concert cds and compilations(:

So let the countdown begin!  五月天’s 「作品8號」release:  6 days and counting!
