I went to the LA stop last night and picked up the limited /100 poster they had for that date. It was a but much for me being $25 but it was my birthday and had the date on it so I justified it in my head lol

I need to remove myself from this thread before I slam dunk on some Danger Days fans.

Lol. No one here is against supporting bands at all. It's just said that this band you all love has no qualms about milking you guys for every penny you have for 4 songs on a bare 10" record. That same amount gets you a box set from a label like Captured Tracks that includes a limited variant colored vinyl, 2 cassettes, and other awesome bull shit that you don't really need, but you get what you pay for. And these man hours you speak of? I don't know how many are in this band, but if there are 4, and they get 5 grand each, how long do you think it could've possibly taken to put out 4 songs? I'll do the math real quick. Let's say they would make $15 an hour as a day job. That's 333 hours. EACH MEMBER. I highly doubt they spend even a fraction of that in writing these 4 songs. 
TL;DR, you guys got suckered by these guys for a quick cash grab. That's all there is to it. 

Exactly.
It's expensive, but they're not making much money off of this. Even if they profited $20 grand off of this release, that's $20 grand that gets split among the band members. That's $20 grand that goes into financing future releases. That's $20 grand that really, considering the man hours that went into making and putting out those 4 songs, is less money than they would have made working day jobs.

I went to the hot topic that sells vinyl in my area. (Brea, ca) and they weren't out on the floor and after searching around for I while I asked if they'd come in yet. The guy who works there checked the back and said they had them but just didn't put them up for display haha, I thought it was a bit strange but whatever. So I picked one up, and I must say it's a pretty slick pressing. Even tho I dropped 24 buck for a chiodos album, it was worth it for the nostalgia

fixed

Don't want to get anyone's hopes up, but I recently interview Leighton and he had this to say at the end of the interview:

"Keep Calm: One final question I have, it's a question that you've probably been asked a bunch of times by different interviewers, but I still wanted to hear an answer. Any chance we'll see a vinyl pressing of Illuminate to correspond with the tour?
LA: I don't think I'm allowed to answer that. But it's looking pretty good."   Give the full interview a view here: http://keepcalmwtsr.blogspot.com/2014/02/keep-calm-presents-interview-with.html

A lot of bands do splits together because they like the other band's music. The likeness must be mutual between these two.

What...you guys don't like reissues of early 2000's albums and Dance Gavin Dance?

It's not UNlimited

I'm stoked for both sides. 

I hope this isn't going to be hard to get because of you circa freaks

i would REALLY love some five minute ride on vinyl. love that band

I think I'm going to repost a revised version of this every time someone is trying to flip records from now on, haha.

Yeah and whining about not getting a record then flipping it when you finally do get it is very mature.

Wow. Really adult of you man. 

Shut up you loser.

Man i feel kinda bad that i live within 15 miles of like 4 stores on that list that are carrying them in stock. I already picked up my copies yesterday and it kind of sucks that a lot of you are struggling to get them. I wish more stores had them. But I guess it's a perk of living in SoCal.

Can someone PLEASE maybe buy a copy of juturna and save it for me? I'm currently at school and finished taking my final but I can't leave class until 10am to deposit into an ATM. Please pm me If you can.
