i'm doin' the sober thing again. 5 days strong as of today. not even pot. smokin' cigs like a muhfugga tho.

please videochat with any potential roommates so you do not get catfished.

i find that i'm not a total goofy bastard when i'm not high of half drunk all day. i'm usually annoying as hell in person (if not here too). it's hard being double super dad now that the wife is gone, so i figured it was best for everyone if i did this. i had the shakes for a few days, but i've gotten over 'em. i'm proud of myself. actin' all mature and shit.

Instead of the records getting sent out a month late, they went out a month early!

Are you drinkin' drugs?

Shat is always upset about something. Seriously, what around here makes you happy? You are the Jack Lemmon of VC.

If he's a real VC'er he'll now collect all of the variants of the cart, perhaps lining up the red, blue, bronze, and white ones on a shelf unopened.

and tried to scalp his ticket to this show as well

i'll sell you my merch sign for $20

Live albums are the worst

Because sex is the only thing attractive girlfriends and relationships are good for.

Just got home and settled in. Check it out, guys: I was able to get the six for everyone who pre-payed, one for myself, and one that is up for grabs (and is PENDING) as well as stickers and little buttons for everyone to go along with the 7", everyone will recve the white color cover. Koji was nice enough to let me buy all of these, I caught him in a local sneaker shop before the show and I told him what the deal was and he was cool with it, he also threw in the tote bag for me for free as a thank you/birthday present/carrying case. And I bought the Koji/La Dispute split 12", which he said is now OOP and when they are sold, that is. As well as the split with Into It. Over It. Everyone who ordered I will not be able to ship until Monday afternoon, sorry I have work the next four days (but go in at night on Monday) after having the last two off for my birthday. I will PM everyone tracking!

EDIT: News from the prp: • Deftones: Live: Volume 1 – Selections from Adrenaline One disc vinyl 12″ EP – Quantity N/A Songs from Adrenaline hand-picked by Deftones and recorded live at Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, New York, on Oct. 13, 1996. The initial release in a series of seven vinyl exclusive releases with the first release being a Record Store Day exclusive and the last planned to be a Black Friday independent exclusive retail release. Finally, the light of day has come. Cut for vinyl by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering Studios from the original live analog sources and pressed on both 120- and 180-gram highest-quality vinyl at Record Technology Inc. http://www.theprp.com/2013/03/01/news/deftones-kick-off-new-vinyl-live-series-on-record-store-day-avenged-sevenfold-linkin-park-reveal-new-vinyl-plans/ ------------------------------------------- Go to 9:20 on the link: http://www.kegl.com/pages/sixxsense.html?article=10786777 Chino describes it will be 4 to 5 songs from each album/era put on vinyl No details on the format (12", 10", 7" etc.) Probably would be about 2 to 3XLP. It bears clarifying that it seems to be the concept for the renditions of the songs to be live performances performed in the actual era in which the song was newest. I know this is pretty premature but its exciting nonetheless. Discuss!

I go out for day beers with my buddy Monday through Friday. He gets a break between 1 and 2:30 so we always meet at the pub. I spend about $20 a day on beers at the bar. That's $100 a week. That's $5200 a year. That's STUPID.

So awesome. I've been clean from 'other things' for a little over two years now. It's amazing how clearly you begin to think after awhile. You realize how cloudy your mind was before. A bigger plus is you can buy twice as many records (or more) and still have money to spare.

Start applying for a 2nd mortgage.

My hometown rocks. Stay out of it.

when i can buy records again i'll just get the 15th press or whatever /joke'sbeenmade

Toki I'm just tossed you $10 for the cause but you can just leave me out of the raffle, I don't have any use for the print.

http://www.earcandycharity.org/ This is an awesome charity. I don't care if I win the poster. I just wanted to get it to the point where money would be going to this good cause. If you have a couple bucks, throw it toki's way. I LOVE THIS.

I have always felt that live albums are like greatest hits. Put some tracks out that people know and hope they buy it

Don't you make the offers in this situation?

you shouldn't keep your record on their sides ps you have a cool gravity defying room

boo this man

No. It's the same reason I don't buy jet fuel.

Every time someone posts an auction from Issei my soul dies a little, it's like posting LazyLab's stuff.

Instagram, Facebook & twitter

shut up.

my hands were literally shaking when i opened this one.

Once you go black you can never resell and get your money back.

Buy black and shut up.

"Record labels first need see that this is happening" You've been living in a hole, huh? The reason for the variants is to drive a collectors market that helps move records. Variant collectors of popular bands are bread and butter. Kids on the fence about a new band jump in for a limited variant. As to buying more than one copy of a release - not my standard operating procedure but I have no shame in knowing I can trade an LP for one I missed and is now being flipped. To use your example - I traded a Floral Green for a Shed on Blue straight up. I then gifted my black vinyl Shed to someone else. To me, the system works. I have no shame in that I avoided paying $80 for that copy of Shed by grabbing two Floral variants. Way back in the day I traded my Crippled Youth 7" for a Sick of it All and Chain 7" - you know, I wasn't interested in getting the $3 I paid for it when I made that deal in 1996. Judge me all you want but there is nothing wrong with finding a way to fill holes in your collection. You're overly serious and angry about it. You make it sound like you got into buying vinyl in 2012. Revelation perfected limited releases in the 80's and it's been copied ever since. Your internet rage might make you feel better but it isn't worth much.

"Also looking for Brand New and Thrice" would make it perfect.

Rad for mod

These deals just keep making that deal Weaver signed look better and better. Good thing they saved some money on him with these other contracts they are giving out lately are nuts. If Trout keeps it up, there's no way he signs a deal for less than $300M

Couldn't you work that out amongst kevin & yourself instead of crowbar-ing yourself into the middle of their transaction?

They should release that album that never came out versus this

Yeahhh you should consider maybe somewhere not in the states, if you're into that.

just picked up a copy of the cd again the other day after about 6 years of not listening to it...this album is STILL fantastic

The last couple days have been real good to me: Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose picture disc Against Me! - Don't Lose Touch 12" single JImmy Eat World - The Middle 7" - Red Jimmy Eat World - Sweetness 7" - Green Jimmy Eat World - Last Christmas 7" - Green Taking Back Sunday - Louder Now (Totally scored on this one, found a retail copy on CD Universe... must have been a found leftover because it only cost $23 and was sealed up all nice and pretty.) Frank Turner/Jonah Matranga split

I buy records to listen to them not look at them

Helton's mug shot is a real keeper:

FYI early leader for best of the first ten is that Author song. Vacationer is a close 2nd.

I understand both points and probably fall in between both of your points. This is a community and ideally we should work together for the benefit of all. With that said it's irrational to sell a record that sells for $50 on ebay for the $12 you bought it for a few years back. I haven't done much selling around here, mostly because I had no need to sell any of my records. Now I am looking at moving and all that jazz I'd like to sell off some of my records part to pay off debt and part to reduce the amount of crap I need to move. Currently most of what I have sold are things that have minimal value so I've tried to get my money back. Most items were posted at +/- 20% of what I bought them for. When I start posting a few of the rarer records that I want to shed I'll start the thread with prices probably about 20% below ebay value. With that said if a user that posts around here all time and helps others out, or posts their sales threads at low prices, I'll be more than willing to accept an offer much lower than starting price. If a user whose name I've never seen tries to offer a lowball offer, I'll more than likely pass. Help those who help others.

They can not take it, laws of the digital payment system. HT is capitalist, capitalist = not punx Free records = anarchy \m/ u r punx

FYI I bid $101

I feel like I'll be given an awful waffle if I express any further opposition to this variant.

i probably won't attend the saint louis show, but there's a very good chance that i'll park my van in front of the venue and tell some high school girls that i know the band.
