HAIRSPRAY soundtrack pushed back!

Posted: 7/6/07 at 6:07pm

Hey Everyone,

I just got an e-mail about how the soundtrack will now be released on the 17th instead of the 10th...is that true? Amazon, said that it was pushed back...did anyone else get this e-mail?

Wonder how only a few days can help such a big project like that...

yeah Amazon, says July 10th, too, but I got the e-mail from Amazon saying that I shall get the CD on July 17th instead of the 10th or 11th, because they have not arrived in stock yet, mainly because the CD has been pushed back or other problems...that is what I got from Amazon.

You've got to have the CD in stores for opening day. I can't imagine how they could push this back at this point.

Maybe Amazon customers need to have it pushed back because of the stock.

Well OPENING NIGHT is July 20th, that is still in time for it to be in stores, if it is the 17th!

Ah. Maybe it is only Amazon being pushed back.

I didn't get an e-mail and the shipping date on my order page still says July 10 ! I hope I am lucky. Could it be because I am overseas and arrival time is already longer, so they ship ours first (the few that they maybe got anyway) ?

Greekmusicalfan, Hi!! No, I didn't get an e-mail from Amazon either. When I tracked my order though, it said it would be shipped out on July 19.

A friend's kid brother works at BestBuy and they received their shipment yesterday (Saturday 7/7/07), so it's release date is indeed July 10th. They tend to receive their Tuesday release date merchandise (DVDs, CDs, etc.), the previous Saturday, but they are forbidden to be put on shelves until that Tuesday.

My friend works at Borders and they haven't received a shipment yet- but I am pretty sure the release date is still Tuesday.

Thanks for the heads-up, TonyaFanatic -- the complete film soundtrack is available to listen (in FULL not in 30-second samples) on rhapsody.com.

Whoo-hoo!

"They tend to receive their Tuesday release date merchandise (DVDs, CDs, etc.), the previous Saturday, but they are forbidden to be put on shelves until that Tuesday."

Most places receive Tuesday release date merchandise the weekend before. It depends on the shipping ompany as to when it arrives. Some places even get it weeks before. I remember buying RENT on DVD almost a month before it was officially released. Best Buy isn't anything special in this respect.
