Nice update from Numero on the upcoming box. The Salt Lake City show was a surprise to show up. Sound is a little thin, but similar to some of the sound on the circulating 1985 soundboards. I will say that its nice to see something that I hadn't known existed.

Numero Digest Vol. 22: Hüsker Dü Special Part II
Going to keep this as short and sweet as possible.
 
1) New Tunes 
We're still banging through this treasure trove of Dü tapes and ephemera. A lot of brainstorming and I think we are getting closer to envisioning a proper physical project but still some more work to be done to unearth enough stuff to properly follow up Savage Young Dü. Here's where we are at: We've transferred and restored a bunch of tapes now and this show at Salt Lake City is a stand out show amongst the stand out shows. This never-before-heard soundboard recording survived in the group's archive and comes at the tail end of an almost 90 show run in 1985. We're releasing a section of the show featuring 5 future classics from yet-to-be released Candy Apple Grey heard for the first time by this feverish crowd.   
 
Listen Now:
 
2) 1985 Tour Shirt Update
We capped the orders at 1 week and ordered the exact amount from our printer. I'm glad we did that because if not, we would have severely underordered. Screen-printing is wrapping up this week and we'll get everything bagged and tagged, probably late next week, early week after. You will get a shipping notice from our site. Appreciate the patience and support!
 
3) PRE-ORDER: The 1985 Oar Folk Fire Shirt
Because the first shirt did so well and also because we got a ton of emails about people missing the cut-off window for ordering, we are releasing another era-appropriate limited T-shirt tribute. We're calling this one the "1985 Oar Folk Fire" shirt as a tribute to a very similar pinkish tie-dye with blue ink shirt only  available at influential Minneapolis alternative record shop Oar Folkjokeopus. The shop was gutted in a fire during 1985 with any original stock of this shirt going up in flames. The 2025 version will be again made to order with pre-orders going for the next week and will be printed on Comfort Colors Colorblast as a nod to the original dye job. 
 
Here's a the new look with possibly the only surviving photo of the original Oar Folkjokeopus exclusive below. 
And now some Non Hüsker Dü Numero stuff 
PRE-ORDERS:
Eldritch Anisette - Complete Fairytales LP
(Hand-Screened Jacket Edition)
Our 4th in the Hand-Screened Series following Frail, Pennikurvers and The Album Leaf.  In-demand Female fronted emo from the First State. Limited to 500 copies. 
 
Perfect for those who thought EA's 7" on Sequoia was just or don't feel like shelling out $200 for an original (without the unreleased tracks!) but non-vinyl heads can enjoy the streaming or the t-shirt wearing. 
Tiger Style 3xLP Bundle

More Hüsker Dü more often is my mantra, but I always wonder about soundboards for bands that rock and lean on amplification. They always sound thin. This may be hard to pull off, but I feel like the way to go would be to air-gap it: replay it in a venue of suitable size with suitable equipment then mic the room. That is almost certainly going to lead to a more enjoyable, authentic experience, even if you lose a little vocal clarity in the process. 
Not that this would keep me from pre-ordering.

It does sound great and I'm super excited about it. But didn't they say it was coming out this year? Or do I have that wrong? If that were the case they'd be pressing it now, not still compiling it. Maybe these teasers are just post-dated for marketing or something... either way, I'm all in!

I wouldn’t mind the guitars being a bit louder but also all in and excited some of this is finally happening 

Also surprised they haven’t gone after the low hanging fruit that being reissuing/mastering the Warners records.

I know the Rhino people that worked on the Replacements reissues and they said the process is straightforward.

Guess we will see
