New Features Added to "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut)"
Wed., Feb. 16. 2005 11:22am EST
Although the tracks for our "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut)" CD have been recorded since 1993, we've spent the last few weeks adding some extra features to the project. The previous "Isn't Wasn't Ain't" limited-edition 10th-Anniversary CD in 2003 did not include a case or even a CD booklet. We had originally told you we were just including a one-page CD insert for the Director's Cut, but we have since decided to expand that to a four-page CD insert and a case.
Now's your chance to save $3 by pre-ordering our "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut)" CD. Because we've added the extra booklet and case, the project won't be ready to ship until March, but we think you'll agree the extra features are worth the extra time. The Director's Cut has two additional tracks from the original "Isn't Wasn't Ain't" in 1993 that weren't on last year's 10th-anniversary reissue CD. Pre-order now and save $3 and get a bonus CD while supplies last.
As the name suggests, this version is bigger and better than last year's 10th-anniversary reissue. We're having it duplicated professionally, and we're adding two tracks which were on the original "Isn't Wasn't Ain't" cassette in 1993, but not on last year's CD. Those additional tracks are "Mrs. Protestant," a parody of "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel, and "God I Like About You," a parody of "What I Like About You" by the Romantics. That increases the total number of tracks on the new "Isn't Wasn't Ain't" CD from 18 to 20.
Like our other fan-club-only releases, "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut)" is not available in stores. It's something we're making available especially for our online fans.
The project should be released in March, so you need to pre-order now to take advantage of the pre-order offer: $3 off plus a free bonus CD while supplies last! Please note: If you order "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut) or "Apol-acoustiX" along with other CDs your entire order will be shipped together when those two CD's are available, which enables us to keep your shipping cost down.
Pre-order "Isn't Wasn't Ain't (Director's Cut)" or "Apol-acoustiX" now and save $3 off the $12.99 price. The first 600 people who pre-order either CD will also receive a free copy of our "Have Yourself a Parody Little Christmas" CD, which is no longer available for purchase.

Warning: If you're looking for stellar performances, "Isn't Wasn't Ain't: The Director's Cut" isn't, wasn't, ain't the CD for you. It's a good time capsule from 1993 that will let you see how we sounded in our formative years, and it contains some great parody lyrics, but we had a lot to learn. Our goal has always been to make each album better than the previous one. Consequently, for many years we were hesitant to re-release "Isn't Wasn't Ain't" on CD, because we didn't want it to be the first taste of ApologetiX for a new listener. However, we know that many of you already have everything else we've released and are eager for more.
