i'm going to night one.  don't turn away is one of my favorite albums, can't pass up the opportunity to hear it live in its entirety.

That is awesome.  I wish I could make it as well.

I received my cola brown copy today. It looks and sounds amazing.

Ahh, the ST show with Unwritten Law would be an awesome show to go to.  Thats the album that got me into Face to Face.  Sadly, I live in the boring midwest.

I grew up in California but live in the mid west as well.  I wish we had shows out here like we had back in California.

Yeah that's pretty awesome. Seen face to face like 20+ times so probably seen most of their songs live. But wouldn't mind one more go around!

I grew up in Victorville and have seen them live many times as well, but there are many tracks off the first three LP's that I have not heard them play.

That is real cool. Like all the openers too.

I agree.  I wish I was still living in California so I could go to all three shows.  

Anyone planning on going to any of the triple crown shows face to face just announced?

Those wax pachs are really cool

thanks for the news Travis.  I can't wait to hear what you guys have up your sleeve.

PM'd

You caught me, haha. Glad to see everything made it in one piece, and especially glad that you like it!

 

Also! In case you're wondering what the sticker with the weird C is (because I forgot to mention it in the letter), it's from a wonderful place in Athens called Nuci's Space. It's a resource center that offers practice spaces and mental health/suicide prevention counseling for musicians. Everything they do is for a good cause, and I think it's one of the coolest places I've ever set foot in.

 

I promise I'll be a little more subtle next year.

Wow, I was wondering about that sticker.  Sounds like a great resource.  Thanks again for everything.

My curiosity got the better of me so I opened my gift, man was I floored.  I'm really into my local scene so I really appreciate the stuff from yours and your insight into some bands that I have never listened to.  Also, thanks for the handwritten letter, I wish my handwriting was as nice as yours...and yes my musical tastes are very diverse.  

Finally, based upon the not so subtle hints (Georgia tourism guide) I'd say my SS is A.K. Aych.  Thanks for being my secret Santa, you did an amazing job!

Here is a pic:

OPEN IT!

I really want to!

My SS gift arrived at the house today!

There are a few copies on Discogs:  http://www.discogs.com/sell/release/3495975?ev=rb

Hot Topic exclusive white marble /500.

Available in stores later this week, online soon too.

 

Looks fantastic

haha yup - I believe it was mocked up as a clear with white splatter or something and instead it just turned out as marbled grey or something haha

Correct, I ended up with that exact version.  I was talking w/ Eric from the Menzingers about it a while back.  He designed the album artwork and chose the vinyl colors and wasn't happy with the result.

Epitaph's variants never ever look close to the mock ups haha

Rented World by the Menzingers turned out that was as well

This is the cola variant, looks more brown to me

Nice

I spoke w/ Kings Road and they said that their was a glitch in their system and they had to manually process my order.  Apparently they will be mailing it today.

I've been sitting here trying to make a joke about this being in the wrong thread, but I just can't come up with anything.

 

I want you guys to know that I tried. 

I just realized the error of my ways!

Try logging into your KRM account or check order status and sometimes you can find your tracking there before they send out shipment conformation emails.

I've been logging in daily and it says Shipping Soon

I still have not received a shipping notification for my Cola copy.  Anyone else still in the same boat?

the face to face album you have listed is not called Three Cheers its Three Chords and a Half Truth.

I spent all day yesterday hanging decorations, putting up a tree, and laying out my Christmas sweaters

Nice

Really cool
