Does anyone know if the new album is to be released on the 26 or 27 September in the UK? Sure I've seen both dates mentioned in the discussions over the last few weeks. I realise this may sound a little desperate. The excitement is building now ( :) ) and I need to arrange for time off work to go and purchase the discs. ( especially as I was not the lucky person to be receiving a signed copy for being the 1,000,000 visitor to Mike's site. Oh well.....!;)

My guess would be the 26th, which is a Monday.  Almost all new releases come out on a Monday.  (I usually go to HMV during my lunch hour every Monday!!;)

When I was younger, I used to get to my local store (the only music store in town) for the launch of every Oldfield album (although establishing this date was much harder then it is now in the internet age). Imagine my frustration when every album after Islands was met with "Sorry, we only ordered half a dozen copies because we didn't anticipate this being a popular album"

Quite often had to wait for a week after the launch date to get the album.... Now that was torture....

Let's hope it is a world-wide release, so I can buy it here in Australia the day it comes out, and not six months later...
I suppose I can always order it over the internet.

Yes as a general rule I have had to wait 4 to 6 weeks after the release of one of Mikes albums to be able to get it here in Australia, even if you pre-order it or get it on import which I have done in the past, doesn't make any difference.

I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day!
