Nice!  Does it say what the 7" is?  I had just picked up Ordinary Day on RSD.  

I'm wondering the same thing.  I saw them open for Dr. Dog last year and instantly became a huge fan.  Nice guys too.  I snagged the RSD 7" so I'm hoping it's different.

Finally got through on Bull Moose and got an email confirmation for one of the few things I wanted this year: The Districts - Ordinary Day/Lover, Lover, Lover 7".  I wanted Robert Johnson but not for ~$60 and I wanted The Doors but I'll be alright.  Good luck to everyone stuck at checkout.  I clicked the purchase button and it did nothing so I  just changed tabs and went back a few minutes later and it had registered and gone through.

Same.  The 7" I'm trying to snag isn't that popular so I'm hoping it works out - at least no one here has really mentioned it.

I was JUST having feelings of regret for not snagging a signed DAMN. and was about to pre-order with an hour left... now I'll just wait and pick it up later.  Lazy autograph or not, seeing it above just doesn't compel me to drop the money right now 

Song link for the lazy:

Revolution Per Minute was my jam back in the day and I could dig a bit of Sire Song too.  Didn't really pay much attention to them after that, but I'll give this a chance.

I'm really digging that vibe at 00:20.

I just gave this album a  listen and it honestly didn't stick for me.  I guess I set myself up for disappointment when I was hoping for another Continuum.  He's such a phenomenal guitarist and I wish he'd play more blues; he kills it covering Bold As Love.  I'll give The Search For Everything another play through later today, but right now I can only kind of dig 3 songs: Helpless, Moving On and Getting Over, and Rosie (in order of appearance).  But that's just like, my opinion, man.

I know the IKSSE3 tour they sold no more than 40 per show and one per person, so you should be fine just get to the merch booth early. Not everyone in line will be buying it but don't sleep on it.

Awesome, I should be okay if that's the case and they limit sales.  Working at a venue, I usually have no problem snagging something before doors, my concern was them just running out before my date.  You'd be surprised the amount of tours that don't limit merch and sell out of posters, vinyl, certain shirts, etc. mid tour and have to wait for a shipment at a later date.

^ I was just about to break that down and say I thought it was actually pretty reasonable.  I mean, I'm not buying it, but it's worth it if you're a big enough fan.  Having been to a few meet & greets, most aren't worth the price.

Ahh damn, I gotta wait until mid May to see them.  I hope they are still selling that variant in a month from now.

Slow week or so for grabs, but:

together PANGEA - Badillac
Andrew McMahon ITW - Zombies on Broadway (red)
Atlas Genius - So Electric: When It Was Now (The Remixes)
Frank Sinatra - Ultimate Sinatra

Depending on the price, I'd consider picking this up.
 

"VIP tickets include Do You Feel on vinyl for the first time ever (limited edition double vinyl with gatefold design on VIP exclusive PURPLE vinyl) a meet & greet before the show, an acoustic performance and a signed tour poster. VIP and Pre-Sale tickets are on sale tomorrow, April 12 @ 10am and general tickets go on sale this Friday, April 14 @ 10am at www.TheRocketSummer.com/tour" - The Rocket Summer's Facebook
 

^ I didn't see anything else mentioning pre-orders or giving a date as to when they may go up.

2017 has been chalking up to be an awesome year for new music.  So down for new QOTSA!

Yeah it was. At one point he says after they kill Negan and everyone with him he'd radio back to base that all is fine. I always took it as meaning that he'd show back up with Negan, and when he was dead would go off with Rick and co.

Exactly what I think was supposed to happen.  I'm still not sure what I think about Eugene, but it looks like Negan may be suspicious about his involvement with ******'s sacrifice.  Eugene tried to explain it away, but Negan didn't seem to be buying it.  I'm content with the finale.  It was apparent a few episodes ago that there was no way they would wrap up this "war" with so little time.  No major cliffhanger, just left to wonder who Eugene and Dwight are really loyal to, and at least we can hopefully look forward to some upcoming action.

I spoke to someone about not receiving a confirmation email.  Said the order was under My Orders and was charged and they said: 

"Yes, we have your order here. We had an influx of purchases at 1pm. You should receive a confirmation email shortly. Thanks!"

Not to beat a dead horse, just wanted to let others who also got errors / didn't get a confirmation know.

Just make sure you got both email confirmations.  It finally went through on my third try (mobile), but there are 3 orders processing in my account, but I only received 1 email from both SRC and PP.  Sent them an email.. I only want one 

Just checked and I didn't get an email confirmation from SRC.  Odd that it would be under My Orders and I'd get charged though if it didn't go through properly.  Eh, maybe I'll fire off a quick email and double check.

EDIT: Sent email.  Will update if it's relevant.

I think I grabbed a copy... but got an error with  big red box and a ton of text?  Checked my bank account and they took the money already and it's under my orders as processing so maybe I'm good.  Has that ever happened to anyone else?  I wish I would have grabbed a screenshot of the error.  Oh, well.

This is one of those albums that I almost completely forgot about, but used to love back in the day.  I know what I'm about to listen to.

New song called "State Of The Art" is on Spotify right now.

I really liked most of the The Black Keys albums.  I enjoyed Keep It Hid for the most part.  The Arcs were awesome... this... this single I'm unsure about.  I don't think it's "bad", but it doesn't compel me to pre-order this album.  I'll definitely keep an eye out for another single if that happens and I'll decide then.

This is good news!  I actually forgot about these guys... really really dug Sleeping Bag & Rozwell Kid - Dreamboats.

Seeing them in May.  I'll for sure just opt for the tour variant if it's still available.

Admittantly, the 2008 self-titled album is really the only material I'm really familiar with so I don't have much to compare the new song to in terms of the band's progression.  That being said, I really like it, and even with a "polished" sound I'm looking forward to them putting out new material.

A little late, but time to Spotify the back catalog.

Thoughts?

The Gaslamp Killer - Instrumentalepathy

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis: Bold As Love

From Indian Lakes - Everything Feels Better Now
