Went to 3 stores and struck out trying to grab that Bone Thugs n Harmony - E. Eternal 1999 reissue

$2 + shipping for 25 sleeves at Half Price Books

https://www.hpb.com/products/record-sleeve-12-lp-outer-jacket-201000000106

Anyone else a little disappointed by these new singles?  Hippies is still in regular rotation for me but I think I'm going to pass on this one

Is it $60 every 3 months or is that just the introductory price and it goes down afterwards?

Sleep and Ancient Aliens inspired half sleeve I just got done by Mikey Wheeler at Mercy Seat in Kansas City.. been wanting to get something like this done for a while now, really pleased with how it turned out.

I was going to make a joke that maybe they'll repress the Fastball record next.. but then I remembered that they already did that a couple weeks ago

It says that Thirdman Nashville and Detroit will carry the colored variant the day after the release as well as other select retailers. I wonder how the select retailers are selected that'll be carrying that colored variant.

For Sciences the black/green seemed to go out to shops in towns on their most previous tour.  Not sure if it lined up perfectly because I didn't match the list to their tour schedule, but there were a couple cities that got variants that seemed like weird choices except that Sleep had just played there.

I mean...I ordered from fat beats and it was $10 plus shipping.

 

I know we're all shitting on third man, and I hate them more than most, but that's not too bad.

Just put in an order for Fat Beats too.  Found a coupon code if anyone else is going that route LEAGUESBENEATH for 10% off

I don't know about biscuits or tonic, but I'm definitely looking forward to paying $25 for 1 song

Figured I'd ride it out and then almost immediately decided to cancel.  The new changes they announced yesterday are just too much.  They're still not being transparent in what's going on.  It almost seems like they're trying to move to a more expensive system where only some inconvenient showtimes are available and only a certain number of tickets will be distributed to subscribers on any given day.

It was fun while it lasted though

Alamo is going to launch their own subscription service coming up pretty soon, I'll be interested to see what they come up with.  I've been thinking about dumping movie pass but I think I'm just going to ride it out, might as well at this point.

Does $12 work for you?

Wow! I'm surprised at how much more difficult Caution seems to be. I have a copy with a bad skip that I should've returned but I've always been like "eh, I'll pick it up in a store sometime when there's nothing else to buy". That never happened, and I'll probably be stuck with my skippy copy for a while.

That's pretty shocking for Caution.  I've had my copy for years, but def always assumed that there were just a million floating around

Turned the AC in my apartment off, went to the movies for a few hours. Turned the AC on (yay smart appliances) before I left the mall. It was 15 degrees cooler outside by the time the movie was done.

 

I'll honestly probably save a fair amount on my electric bill if I keep doing that through this heat wave. Helps that I have moviepass so I'm not actually spending money on tickets.

I got the Nest last year and it's been pretty great for that saving money stuff.   But it also cranks it up to 83 degrees if I stay sitting in the same place for too long because it thinks I left the house.

Kinda disappointed they couldn't just bring it all back together, I'm starting to feel like they're just tricking us into watching Lost

I'm just bumping this because last night I realized Dead Format is no more. 

 

Good thing this place is still around. 

Kind of surprised the VC developers never got around to putting together a collection list section like DF

I'm in for 1

Camp PID was rad. Tons of good bands, most everyone was chill. I didn’t see any overt negativity or fighting. The Interrupters and Descendents had the sets of the weekend in my opinion. 

Saw that video going around with Jello joining the Descendents on stage for "Police Truck", seemed pretty fun

I believe they explained this last season. I don't remember exactly how they put it but he realized, in essence, that the trauma pushed them closer to having agency and making their own decisions, etc.

I know that was heavily implied, but I'm still skeptical of how involved William really is in wanting to "wake up" the park's robots.  Or how awake they really are.

Adult Swim single: "Leagues Beneath"

http://www.adultswim.com/music/singles-2017/59

I wonder if they'll release this as a single-side 12" like The Clarity

They're really fuckin' me up now. Esp. after last episode. But it's hooking me in even deeper now. 

From what I've read in other forums, the creators have admitted that season 1 was a "prologue" with season 2 really being where the story begins.  And they expect it to take either 5 or 6 seasons to tell the full story.

I still haven't gotten around to watching the films, but I read through the plots and it seems like season 2 is following the same basic idea as Westworld (the movie).  Which probably leads to us being able to assume that somewhere around season 2 or 3 we'll transfer into the second film, Futureworld.  The concept of that film is that the creators of the robots in Westworld begin creating robot clones of real people in order to take over the world, or something.

Still no idea what William was doing in the beginning of season 1 to Dolores in that barn or why he killed Maeve and her daughter, especially since he doesn't seem to do much of anything that isn't linked to a "story".  My guess is we won't figure that out for a while.

One time they sent me a record already opened and it looked like it had been chewed up. At least it did come in a record mailer.

If it's damaged just take it to a store and they'll replace it, most employees are known of the bullshit that goes on at their warehouses.

It's really weird they do this.  It's not even Mail order but instore too.  They always have a bunch of open damaged records they're trying to sell at full price.  Always wondered who the person was at my local store who bought that $35 beat to hell copy of Crazysexycool I had my eye on.

Holy shit

Haven't read the whole thread, did no one mention that the limited wasn't gatefold?  Or was that "holy shit" in reference to something else?

Picked up the last green/black split at my most local shop that was carrying it.  I think the limited has a better cover but I was disappointed to hear that the official release is a gatefold.  Not sure why they wouldn't also make the limited a gatefold, unless they're just fucking with us.
