From: Schmidt, Walter Sent: Friday, December 30, 2005 10:07 AM Subject: RE: Soundstage DVD of TOFOG Dear Lois, Thank you for your inquiry about Soundstage: 30 Off Foot of Grunts. [He wrote back shortly after this with "Spell check is such a wonderful thing, isn't it...I of course meant to type "Soundstage: 30 ODD Foot of Grunts"] As you correctly stated in your email, this DVD release had been delayed from its original release date (November 11th). It was our intention to re-announce this title for early 2006, but unfortunately, as commonly happens with entertainment projects involving multiple artists, managers and production partners, this Soundstage release has now been indefinitely delayed (Amazon's 2010 listing is an arbitrary date, which they use to represent an unknown release date on their website). We are aware that there have been some postings on the internet, in which individuals have speculated that this DVD release was a "bootleg" or "unlicensed." I would like to clarify these incorrect and unfounded statements. KOCH only releases titles that are properly sanctioned and meet the approval of their official licensors. We deeply regret the disappointment this delay has caused our customers. As a means of making up for this inconvenience, a special promotional code will be sent this coming January to all those who pre-ordered Soundstage: 30 Off Foot of Grunts from www.kochvision.com offering a special discount on a future purchase. Once again my deepest apologies regarding this matter, and if you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me directly. Sincerely, Walter Schmidt |
