Looking for:

Anthony Green - Would You Still Be With Strings (in Black with Purple Blue and Yellow Splatter).

If anyone got one of the /300 white with the screen printed cover and wants to sell it let me know!

Of the two ways they’ve done VIP I’ve always preferred the “meet and greet” because you get a second to say hi, take a photo, maybe get something signed. The Q&A always felt way more impersonal and short.

did they ever respond back to you?

I contacted them initially as well looking to purchase additional covers to fold over. They responded saying they did not have any additional, but they wanted to send me some Anthony Green merch, and asked for my and my brother's sizes (I had 2 orders). I got a package in the mail yesterday with some really nice AG Pixie Queen merch, including the joggers, light blue long sleeved shirt and a basic T shirt with the safecamp on the front and lyric quote on the back. Pretty cool of them to offer that.

Wait, it doesn't bother you that there's a  crease right through the alternate artwork? I picked the 2nd cover because I liked that art the best. I want to be able to look at the art. Mine's waiting for me at home, and I'll be pretty bummed if mine is also like the ones shown in pictures on Discogs. Sure, I can refold but that would still suck to see the crease whenever I'm listening to the album. 

Frankly, I think that is a legitimate thing to be at least slightly bummed about especially considering 2 of the 4 cover arts are exclusive to these bundles. But it is what it is lol hopefully they get it right the next time.

Aaaah, I got #7 bundle, but 6 is my lucky number.  Damn!  So close...

 

Does anyone have a picture of what folded "incorrectly" looks like?  Mine seem to be totally fine, but I'm curious as to how they can misplace a fold on a cover.  To be honest, I'm not sure how it could possibly be folded wrong.  Maybe I'm having a brain fart.

As others have said it's not a massive issue, I had just never seen it happen before and was curious if all of them were done the same. Basically, if you look at the listing photo you'll see on the right hand side that the small flap has the "circa survive the amulet XX/100" .Then on the left side of the photo, the main art covers the other side of the record. Basically someone just folded the covers through the art rather than the gap between the numbered section and the art.

Anyone else receive the Merch Limited set of four today with 3/4 of the covers folded on the actual art? My brothers and mine were folded the exact same, wondering if they all came like that. 

At this point it might make sense as the touring variant, regardless, I'm sure it will be released in some way eventually. 

Yeah these guys are doing it right, and really hard working. They are on the verge of blowinng up and deserve all the success they are headed toward!

So happy to get both variants of this amazing album! I hope they decide to press Elephantitis next! 

Based on the wording for the VIP it also looks like they may have changed it back to the old model with the meet and photo opportunity rather than the vague Q&A. I would be very happy if this is the case.

Bump

PM if you have and are interested in selling.

Thank you!

If anyone has one of the pink with the silkscreened cover that they'd be willing to sell please let me know!

Here is a pic of the tour screenprint

I never saw any Circa Survive fans in my daily life unless I was at a Circa Survive show. Otherwise, I only interacted with them on various message boards.  I knew maybe 3 people who were fans of this band when the second album came out and after that maybe one or two more. When Juturna was released, I was the only person I knew who gave a shit about them. After nearly a year, I had a couple of co-workers who ended up being fans and they were about 4 or more years younger than me and in high school. I've hardly had any friends that I see regularly have the same taste in music as I do. Its weird to read what some of you are saying about knowing all these people who were going ape shit with anticipation for CS's second album.

 

That said I think Juturna is still #1 for me. OLG is awesome but doesn't have the same charm. Its a close second. Past that, the other albums fall pretty far and pretty fast away from the greatness of the first two albums.

I agree for the most part. I've never met a circa survive fan out in the "real world". Only at various shows. In highschool I was the only real fan I knew of, and most of my friends were kind of fans just because I'd play circa all the time haha. I actually remember there being a little bit of a negative reaction to the second album, or at the very least consensus that it didn't live up to Juturna. I could be remembering wrong though. But in 2008 my brother surprised me on my birthday by taking me to my first ever live Circa concert, which was a free show on OSU's campus. They were actually one of the opening bands for The Roots. There was maybe 30-40 people actively watching the concert before The Roots came on, maybe 20 of them knew Circa, crazy to think how a free concert on one of the country's biggest campuses was in 2008 compared to how that would probably go today.  Heck, even as far as 2010 with the Blue Sky Noise tour the creature club was tiny, maybe 7 people at each concert in this area. Admittedly though, southern Ohio doesn't compare to the following on the coasts. The merch guy told me they had over 500 vips for LA alone for this tour. We went to Royal Oak, MI. There was maybe 60 or so.

what's the tour press out of? 

I just asked, they said they got 500 and that it's probably /1000

Got them in yesterday. Love each of the different variants but I don't see any of the yellow/orange from the Bside of the /500 that was supposed to be there haha. Red A/ Orange B is more of a swirl. and the other really looks black until you hold it up to light and you can see the red through the black, it's pretty cool. Probably my favorite.

Is anyone else noticing parks being very lacking of everything? I went to several and I only found maybe 2 pokespots on each and very little pokemon actually in the park, the biggest park I went to today only had 3 pokespots and I caught only 3 Pokémon. A lot of Pokémon showed up, but they all seemed to be in the neighborhoods surrounding the park instead of actually being in the park itself.

Around where I live a lot of the pokespots seem to be distinguishable landmarks, historic sites, or various religious sites such as churches and temples. There are some parks around me that are consistently populated with pokemon and have around 10 pokespots within a 100 feet or so area, and there are some other areas that don't seem to have much. You might just have a dud area there.

I got mine yesterday, I got everything except the vinyl and the bottle opener, called and it seems they just left it out for some reason haha. They said they'd get back to me on that.

Me too. Did you get a bundle? Maybe its just the other items?

I got bundle 7 with the photos and whatnot and also the sand variant, my tracking said it would arrive today but it looks like probably Monday now. Hopefully the records are with it, not sure why they'd want to spend more on shipping than they have to shipping a separate package later. We will see haha

Just got the email today saying my order has shipped! So excited, did not expect them to come so early since the email said August/September.

Oh and the signed vinyl in Cincy were all black vinyl

Control & the Urge To Pray is a stupid song? News to me. I would have been upset if they stopped playing that after just starting it. 

Yeah I was a little bummed that they didn't continue playing the song, but with the two other times they stopped playing I think they were trying to get caught up on set time, they and The Early November only had half hour sets. Oh and Anthony was definitely joking around when he said the song sucked, like I said I think it had more to do with the time
