I just read that the final mile of the marathon, where the bombs went off, was dedicated to the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shootings. Could be a correlation there.

Got my record in today. Buy something for yourself and help him out!

Just ignore his immature posts and he'll stop making them. Let's not make this thread about his behavior.

Regardless of who or why or anything, it happened. That's all that really matters and it's horrible. Thoughts out to anyone affected by the tragedy.

Home from class bump

From Spartan Records' Facebook about 16 minutes ago: "RED ALERT: There will be few extra copies of the second pressing of Mae's "Destination: Beautiful on vinyl. We will make these available to the public this WEDNESDAY. We will make an announcement tomorrow about the specific time and location that they will be available. Stay tuned!" So for any of you that missed out, like me, pay attention to their FB page tomorrow.

UPS shipping is cheaper than USPS for this... LOL. I think I'll go with the free download of this one.

That sounds pretty awesome. I saw the vid you posted of "Navigate" in a different thread. I was definitely enjoying it. Wish I could get my hands on one of those tour copies of Circle Gets The Square.

It's great to see him doing so well. He had talent with the buccos, just no run support, ever. Speaking of the Pirates... How about the sweep of the Reds? Didn't see that one coming.

Ahh, thanks. I see it was linked from the huge list on http://new-vinyl.blogspot.com/ . That's a bummer, I guess? I'm working on RSD but was still hoping to snag that on my break. Guess I won't have to worry about it now.

Whaaaat? Link? It makes sense, since they are touring together but I haven't heard anything like that myself.

I neither recommend or advise against this. I just know where he got the idea from and am supplying it to anyone who wants to see it. http://analogueadventures.com/2011/04/22/helpful-tips-magic-eraser/

Do yourself a favor and look at the How To Pack A Record thread before shipping these out to whoever wins. Just saying, since you mentioned you're new to this. I'm tired of getting records from eBay that are packed in between two bubblegum wrappers and held together with masking tape. Good luck with the auctions.

Yeah, this is my entry to the band. I saw it up on Graveface while I was watching the auction but for only a few bucks extra I was happy to get the 1st press highlighter green splatter (that green on green you linked looks reeeally nice though). Also, I enjoy buying from people associated with the boards. Concerning Illumination Ritual, I looked into it after checking the PO thread the other day. It's shocking that Graveface gets these releases out for $15 shipped. Do you think it'll sell out prior to the release or still be available through Graveface after 4/23? I'd like to pick it up with my next paycheck, after RSD. I really don't see a reason why I shouldn't grab that one up for $15 though. Appreciate the info on everything!

Thanks man. I've heard too much positive talk of TAC to not give them a try. This good looking piece of wax felt like a solid place to start.

Haha, I won the auction this morning. Thanks for looking out, though.

Totally understand. I've watched my USPS carrier frisbee packages into the back of his truck. You can't count on them to care about a package if it's marked fragile or not. It's all part of the great adventure. I'm glad I was able to get a copy of Kingprince on wax at all, let alone such a great looking one.

Really bummed that I missed this. Praying they come to ACL Festival.

Watching this like a hawk; like a very fixated hawk; like a hawk that has especially good vision as far as hawks go; like a hawk with binoculars, even.

Mine arrived today. Same here; bent corners on both the signed and non-signed jacket. Regardless, the look and feel of the jacket is phenomenal. I'm really pumped to spin this beautiful cream wax in the morning. Thanks for everything, guys (Casey, directly).

Received a record shipped between two pieces of thin cardboard taped together. Needless to say, it's mangled.

edit: PM'd with info on purchasing

"LOOK AT DEM BOOBIEEEEESSS" Thank you, Eric.

Cheers for starting this at 99 cents.

How were the new songs?
