ratbrain Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 yeah, i wish they'd include digital downloads with all their tapes... i just grabbed the streaming mp3s off Neil Hamburger's Bandcamp -- they're only 128 kbps but for standup that's all i really need.

bathroommonkey Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 i too, wish burger gave out downloads. maybe someone just needs to bring it up to them. they are stoned most of the year, maybe they just haven't considered it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamwolf Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I bought the Neil Hamburger tape. I was bummed they don't do digital downloads. I don't wanna have to buy it again from his band camp, so I guess I probably won't give it a listen. Oh well, I guess I've been too spoiled by all the digital downloads everyone else throws about. The tape itself is nice, though. Am I missing something here? You have the tape... but you won't listen to it? ??? Fill in the blanks for me please!!!

dreamwolf Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Pre-Ordered Tomorrows Tulips (peach vinyl) If its used product you can talk make them offers. Like they advertise the offers portion? Or do you just do it on your own kind of thing like it's swap meet/flea market? people here buy stuff all the time and have no way to listen to it. it's kind of a "thing". Ahh gotcha. I literally thought I was missing something in the paragraph. Haha. Dudes, eBay tape deck or something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Got my Neil Hamburger tape in the mail last week, it's pretty hilarious. And yeah, snag a tape deck off eBay. I got a really nice Nakamichi one for about $40, unfortunately shipping was about that much too. dreamwolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apirk Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nice there are a few things I've been meaning to pick up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russellqwerty Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Love this label. Wish I had a cassette deck so I could check out a lot more of the bands. I love how DIY and incredibly gung-ho they are. Lots of great stuff. Big fan of the King Tuff reissue. Got a Burger shirt in the mail today, too! Saw The Shine Brothers last week and they were great. One of the bands on my label was opening for them. Saw The Shine Brothers open for Kurt Vile in San Diego a few months ago. I thought Shine Brothers had a better set. Anyway the keyboardist was chillin at their merch table he sold me their tour cassette and some stickers for $5. Cool band http://russellbstephens.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/20130719-192501.jpg also picked up their burger release, they have a great sound http://russellbstephens.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/20130730-185140.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydrake33 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Pre-Ordered Tomorrows Tulips (peach vinyl) Like a swap meet type. I was like hey I only have $45 would you take that for these records that would equal about $54 before tax Like they advertise the offers portion? Or do you just do it on your own kind of thing like it's swap meet/flea market? Ahh gotcha. I literally thought I was missing something in the paragraph. Haha. Dudes, eBay tape deck or something!

warhenrecords Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I ordered a handful of stuff from the Back To School Sale a couple weeks ago but haven't gotten shipping confirmation or received a package yet. Anybody else having a similar situation? dreamwolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamwolf Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I ordered a handful of stuff from the Back To School Sale a couple weeks ago but haven't gotten shipping confirmation or received a package yet. Anybody else having a similar situation? I know someone who has ordered and haven't recieved theirs as well. Call them! My friend ordered from them on the 28th of August and on the 15th of Sept. they got a confirmation USPS delivery tracking whatever thingy but it hasn't been shipped apparently. My friend said he's talked to not one person in charge of shipping but probably around 3 different people. Oh well, LA Label, probably high on pot and mixed up orders.

Whip Wilson Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I ordered from them around the same time and received a USPS tracking number,but no delivery date. It took a few weeks to ship. I got mine today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Burger can take quite a while when it comes to shipping (especially during sales). I've ordered from them a ton of times and never had a problem. It may take a while, but I'm sure you'll get your stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Cool. Not worried about it, was just curious if others were in a similar situation. Always had great experiences with those dudes. Those stoned, stoned dudes. Pic taken on their drive back home after SXSW dreamwolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamwolf Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Received shipping Tracking on the 15th, it's now the 21st and still no update should I be concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apirk Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I'd say email them Their Burger tour is starting soon or started so it might be a little bit until they get back to you. dreamwolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratbrain Posted September 21, 2013 Author Share Posted September 21, 2013 going to burger tour on wed anyone go yet? they have alot of merch? looks like a healthy selection, they repressed a bunch of OOP tapes last week, plus new slipmats, tote bags & tour shirts I'd say email them Their Burger tour is starting soon or started so it might be a little bit until they get back to you. i think Sean stayed behind to man the shop, emailed him about something yesterday and he got right back to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamwolf Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt since they are a start up. Ordered a Tomorrows Tulips Peach Edition Vinyl on the 27th of Aug. It's the 26th of Sept at the moment. But again they are start up and I've been in contact with Sean mainly, who is the only one handling all orders and I think working with re arranging the website. I don't get what would take so long to ship some orders out? Maybe they do mass shipment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apirk Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I got an email the other day about they are behind on shipping stuff out. I am a little worried I am not going to get the Hammered Satin drawn cover I ordered because last time it took this long I was told they didn't have anymore after I asked if it had shipped and got refunded.

dreamwolf Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I will not be buying from this labels website anymore. I feel like they're more about hyping the Burger Records name as a brand as opposed to actual decent customer service. I feel bad about the bands on this label. They probably have no clue their fans are having to wait months at a time before their copy of the music the band makes gets to them.
