I noticed this sandy shit on the Panopticon re-presses...at first it bothered me...but after cleaning the records and playing OK, I got over it...

99% of the time, I am here at VC...I check out VLV once in a blue moon...I like the people here at VC better anyways; they're much nicer and not "scene" or pretentious in their love for vinyl.

Ok...here's the deal...I have never really been into Converge. To be fair though, I have not listened to much of their music to begin with. So, which album of theirs would any of you guys who are fans recommend that I listen to first to get "exposed" to? I'm all over the place when it comes to music taste. Fire away!

I was in a 2+ year relationship only to get the "I need time to myself" excuse over the phone and then never hear from her again...I thought everything was fine and dandy and got blindsided with that... I got no closure whatsoever...this was about 2 years ago...I eventually got over it...

+1 for that dude!

Good thread... Some of my favorites are: Frank Kozik, Coop, Derek Hess.

That's cheap compared to others I have seen around...

The picture doesn't do it justice. It's more impressive in person.

Same here in Florida...there are barely any ska punk shows at all...I think it was earlier this year, but the Catch-22 show was practically dead...barely anyone there...

That In Disgust cover pic is sick!

Scott...you nerd...

KYUSS!!!!!!!

That's exactly how it was with the copy of Mellon Collie (see the Pumpkins thread) that I was at my local store. It had no price sticker and inside a glass counter with other records. I had to ask the guy how much it was going for. What got me though was the other records that were in the counter along with it: Minus The Bear - Planet (can't recall which color) Pelican - Pink Mammoth Metallica - some uber-large and rare vinyl set according to the guy. I didn't ask the prices on these but I am hoping that the store wasn't inflating the prices the Minus and Pelican...that's just plain fucked if they are...

I know that down here in South Florida you have Nova University which has a very strong law program from what I have bene told by friends who attended.

You have made my night...hell...my weekend...fuck that...my month... I told myself that if the Bosstones reunited, I will trave to Boston for this...I go at least once a year anyways...and btw, trying to make the trip for the ISIS shows at the Middle East in Nov.

I would do various acts that would get me arrested for one...

NICE!

...and I dream of a Mighty Mighty Bosstones reunion...

Got it in today! etched d-side

I have the $250 available but not in any rush or desire to buy the album...besides, that money is on deck for something else...

Thanks chief...that made me feel a bit better... Speaking of Pumpkins...my local record store has a sealed copy of Mellon Collie for $250...is that a decent price for that album? My only gauge is when it was mentioned by Billy Hamilton in the Vinyl File interview and how it goes for outrageous amounts.

Man...I was way off on that whole "I think red is the first pressing"...how much of a jackass am I now?!?!?

Ditto.

Since I started the thread I may as well share mine...it has been two: Heather Nova's "These Walls" ep - $200. What made it unique is that she self-released the record with her real first name, Frith, before changing it to Nova. No accurate pressing info but rumored to be less than 300. Coheed & Cambria IKSSE:3 2x12" grey and blue - $40ppd for it...not much compared to some here but hey... Just like hickey, I have a couple more on the works that will surely prove to be pricey...once in hand, I will share...maybe...
