Is it possible what you have is a CD?

Remove the side A labels with an Exacto knife and tape them to side B. Probably not registering right on your turntable's center label scanner.

In b4 it's etched

I don't have many nicknames. Really just Fraulein or Lars, which stems from my friends' love of heavy weights and therefore awesome. I suppose Lara is as short as it gets. Edit:

is it noise canceling? because i'm sure my coworkers would appreciate me using one of those

Got this email from the higher ups at work. I thought it was pretty hilarious. No, it's not from The Onion. Discuss.

But...have you tried turning it on and off again?

No, I am pretty sure they have you covered. From their Facebook: Spacelab9 We have taken the remaining green vinyl copies down until we can get the server situation fixed. If you unsuccessfully attempted to place an order for one today, all is not lost! We appreciate your patience and apologize for our woefully inadequate server. In the process of upgrading right now, will be back with an update! And in previous post he said they are only a two man operation. Quit your crying already.

giant coasters for my huge beer mugs

All the babes we score with our collections. j/k use records to build "no girls allowed" fort

i hate having extra money and free space and moving just isn't hard enough

Thread keeps delivering.

That is such a great note. During the financial crisis in 2008 the largest office on my floor was occupied by a now defunct Financial Analysis firm. It was 90% dudes who wore suspenders and blue shirts that had white collars. During the meltdown I guess the writing was on the wall that they were finished so they'd be in the halls drinking whiskey, doing cocaine in the bathroom and more or less partying - it was awful. The worst came that they would trash the Men's room on our floor every day. What started as people pissing in corners turned to ripping doors off hinges until it became shit on the floor and the ultimate when for a couple days someone wrote on the wall in shit. They puked all the time and had to intentionally not use a toilet. It was so damn awful. When they finally closed up shop everyone else on the floor more or less threw a party.

im still confused about whats not happening.

I need video proof to prove you aren't a liar.

My biggest peeve is when you're on a 2 lane road with nobody around in the other lane. The person ahead turns out in front of you rather than the open lane and slows you down

logically, a turntable that plays the A side but the platter stops when trying to play B side would dictate : A) the record weighs a hundred fucking pounds (on one side only, clearly) B ) you don't know how to properly use your turntable (did you lift the tone arm to double check?) C) a force field surrounding your property has prevented things from happening like they should. or D) The motor in your turntable is shitting itself and needs to be replaced. Also, (real question.) I don't know if it was stated previously, but what turntable are you using?

Yes. What you are describing makes no fucking sense

Yea man, he needs a fourth copy way more than someone else needs a first! Help this dude out!!!!

Good replies, googled and definitely not warped. Think my turntable is just fucked. It's wobbly and a piece of shit. Will keep stupid questions to myself.

Calm down there, sparkle honey bear.

there will definitely be a number of people who are willing to buy disney soundtracks on picture discs that will someday stop buying vinyl because they realized they wasted a ton of money on them and it's not making them happy anymore. but for those of us that don't have to have every expensive variant and mostly buy them to listen to them because they sound great on a proper set up, i think we'll continue to buy them.

Even the bigger, more established labels underestimate the amount of traffic some limited vinyl drops get. Blowing up a thread with all caps and threats of never doing business with a company anymore does nothing but make you look like a complete bitch. I remember MY first time striking out... Spacelab: you've already done a hell of a lot more than I've seen other companies do in this situation. For what it's worth, you're okay in my book. Looking forward to (hopefully smoother) releases from you guys.

Fixed

When I was in 2nd grade someone pooped their underwear and then hid it in a hole in the wall in the bathroom (attached to the classroom). The teacher went around and checked that everyone was wearing their underwear until the perp was apprehended.

Just got an update VIA Integrity records facebook page and it's good news. "Hi David. Emailed you last week. Late summer we hope. Thanks."

Im confused as to what is actually happening.

Thrice, another band that just doesn't like money. We need a support group for us fans of bands like them and Coheed. If anyone has an extra, I'd love one. Either color.

I am surprised more people are not losing their shit over this being sold out.

Wait, there's music on the B side of a record?

got a manatea tea steeper

Any radio station that plays OFF! is alright by me.

Texting

Good move. Don't trust anyone who doesn't like Spaceballs.

Being told to "calm down" when you're not uncalm.

Yeah, i'm not sure why they didn't try to launch it before Elimination Chamber or tried to run a special Saturday Night's Main Event or other one-off PPV-type show. Pretty gutsy to have the first live PPV be 'Mania, but Vince McMahon has grapefruits, as we've been reminded many times over the years.

I one day hope to have the greatest bowl collection the world has ever known

I love when people start taking their record collecting seriously. Mainly because I have no clue how to take record collecting seriously.

This exactly what is happening right now. And sincerely, thank you raynerho for taking an educated guess and informing the community it is greatly appreciated. We have been trying our best to bounce back here, and other message boards, social media to provide updates/answer general questions as well as emailing customers directly not to mention still deal with some technical back end stuff so it helps out greatly when folks such as yourself provide rational explanations to help alleviate the chaos. As far as how many successful orders there were we are not going to divulge numbers at this juncture however we will say that there were A LOT of orders that went through. Our paramount concern right now is taking care of those who have already invested their hard earned cash on this release, and once that is sorted through accordingly we shall let the remaining colored vinyl copies go live on the site albeit sans the technical difficulties this time around.

Everything on eBay has Deja Entendu in the search description.

Everyone, firstly we want to offer a sincere thank you everyone for their patronage, support and most of all their patience in this matter for which we also extend the sincerest of apologies. Regardless of the various tests we ran on the site through before going "live" the bottom line is we sorely underestimated the reliability of our server and certainly for that we assume full responsibility. Where do we go from here? As we have been doing so all day and will continue to do so into the late ours of the night we will be doing what can be done to stabilize the site but more importantly communicating with and ensuring that those who successfully placed orders are given confirmation that their orders did indeed come through so they rest easily. Furthermore, if there are refunds that need to be issued they will be attended to as well. So, in short EVERYONE will be contacted and have their issue rectified. Additionally, any messages to the Facebook page will be answered. Please understand that Spacelab9 is just two guys and we sincerely appreciate the fact that everyone invests their hard earned dollars into a record we are releasing. Heck, we are lifelong collectors ourselves so to reiterate we will be up all night rectifying every issue and addressing every customer personally. Moving forward we are upgrading to a significantly more resilient server. And until all the current issues are resolved the remaining green vinyl copies have been taken down off the site. Once resolved they shall go back up. Outside of improving the site, personally interacting with customers to confirm order receipt, refunding where applicable and informing fans via social media, message boards, etc. all we can offer is our sincerest apologies. I think everyone can be in agree that how the pre-sale unfolded to was neither ideal in the eyes of customers or us and we vow to make things right for everyone moving forward. When all is said and done, frustration aside when you hold this record in your hands and have it spinning on your turntable we are certain that frustration will turn to satisfaction.

prepare to be sad if we keep it as a keeper league again
