Wowee!
Q: How can you, Matador Records, get your average Pavement fan to cough up the cash for the deluxe reissue of Wowee Zowee, the album that is, at best, their second-favorite Pavement album? A: With an incredibly convoluted value-added scheme! Here's how it works: go to Reckless Records, hand over $5 in cash and your e-mail address. Within a few days, Matador will e-mail you directions on how to download a .zip file containing Pavement's April 24, 1994 concert. By the time you're done listening to that (should be on or around November 7), head down to Reckless and pick up a copy of the album, a 7", and a folded poster. That should keep you busy.
