With 'Antics' fast approaching, my nerdy fan-boyishness is sprouting again. Patrick, any idea about posters, stickers, pins and other geekishly awesome 'Antics' stuff I might be lucky enough to get my hands on? Would Dave be a better person for me to inquire about that?

I'm pre-ordering the CD, LP, 7" and CD-EP of the album and 'Slow Hands' single, do I win a prize for most grossly obsessed format hound?

If people only knew how much money I've sank into Interpol stuff... insert sigh here.

BTW - I work at a used CD store now, and while I could just wait for it to be sold by some ill-informed press person who got it as a promo, and pay half the price, I sleep easier forking over more cash to Matador directly.

Pins attached to postcards handed out at Curiosa shows
Double sided 1X1s, two kinds (black and white, Interpol and Antics, same morse code on back of each)
Double sided retail posters, horizontal, one side black, one side white
Large horizontal snipe posters including tiny map to NYC Space
Limited run of 'Antics' stickers
Dossier folders for radio station presentations
Die-cut postcards for all five Spaces
Metal clip-on museum-type pins (think Metropolitan Museum) for Spaces
Limited-edition 5-7" box set containing entire album, sold at NYC, LA and London Spaces in editions of 750 each

I think that's it for now!

Of course, this is just what Matador US is doing. Matador UK will have a slightly different list, and I don't know exactly what Labels (Continental Europe), Reservoir (Japan) and Remote Control (Australia/NZ) have planned... probably mainly variations on these themes.
