    Twilight Singers box set

    in Vinyl Collective Message Board

    Posted

    During a Q&A before the Afghan Whigs show last night, Dulli mentioned that the box set release is "imminent". He said they're all remastered and the covers are reimagined versions of the originals. He said the box set includes everything, including the stuff he didn't want us to previously hear. Due to the normal vinyl production issues, they had to prioritize getting the new Whigs LP pressed first. One Little Indian/Independent is handling it.

    Holy crap. Can you recommend a few? This is quite overwhelming! 

    I'm not really the best person to ask at this point. I go back to the 90s as a hardcore fan of the band and obsessed over bootlegs in a pre-internet, pre-Youtube era. I was involved with the bootleg project from the start and provided several to their list. But I myself have not delved into the bootleg site for the most part. And it also depends on the era you're looking for. If you want the Gentlemen era, the soundboard(?) boots from Boston 94 and Italy 94 were always great quality. I love the Dulli 2008 Triple Door show that is on Spotify if you haven't checked that out. But Dulli never phones it in. I'd use the filters and search the site for the highest quality audio and then look for your favorite act/era/setlists from there. I recall there were people actively recording the shows with high end equipment and providing it to the site right after the shows, so there is some really killer stuff in there.

    I see that there are 3 different ones of the 3xLP listed in Discogs:

     

    The Afghan Whigs – Gentlemen At 21 (2014, Vinyl) - Discogs

    The Afghan Whigs – Gentlemen (2014, Vinyl) - Discogs

    The Afghan Whigs – Gentlemen At 21 (2014, Vinyl) - Discogs

     

    Which one is the preferred one?

     

     

     

    I've never heard any complaints about any of them, I think you are safe to go with any of them.

    The only things that even remotely pique my interest are the Rentals x Nick Zinner LP, Parry Gripp picture disc and Foo Fighters 7-inch. I imagine I'll pick up the Ramones boxset, say, "Wow, this is way too expensive," and put it back.

    $150 per Rhino

     

    Ramones – The Sire LPs (1981-1989) – 7-LP 140g black vinyl boxed set, includes one vinyl with neon splatter, Limited edition of 14,000 copies, $149.98

    The weird thing about this is how long are people supposed to keep their receipts? I tend to sell records I haven’t listened to in a few years, and theoretically would have bought those years before that. I can guess at what I paid, but couldn’t be precise. Since this is a brand new law too, I should have had the foresight this was going to be required and saved every receipt ever?  Anything from discogs is easy, but a small % of the records I own came from discogs. 

    Unfortunately the answer is clear. You are not a business and should not be reporting the 1099 income as such. So no receipts necessary. Screwed like the vast majority of people.

    But you aren't reporting it this year, right? Are you just pointing out what it would be like if it happened in 2022? I am still shocked that they reduced the dollar threshold from $20,000 to $600 and also did away with the threshold for the number of transactions. I definitely think there is a decent chance they amend that so it isn't so punitive, especially once more and more people realize how bad it is. Yours being a perfect example.

    I've been a CPA for 20+ years for what it's worth and it's the only reason I am even chiming in as I don't post much. I don't really think there is even any real dispute amongst members here, just a lot of confusion, understandably.  It boils down to two options. Slap the gross amount of your 1099 figure on page 1 and forget about related expenses...or roll the dice and call yourself a business and prepare a Schedule C even though there is about a zero chance it would hold up under audit.

     

    Again, this is letter of the law stuff. The odds anyone gets audited over it is even more unlikely than your hobby being approved as a business. I know of many people that file rather egregious Schedule C  figures for their legit businesses year over year without consequence. I once had to do one for myself that was correct but looked absolutely insane and had no issue. It's just not their focus. But also not worth the risk for a variety of reasons.

    While I agree the IRS is screwed up this couldn't be further from the truth. I come from a farming family with less than 5 people having names on "payroll" if we wanna call it that. We've been audited by the IRS who can't get things straight over less than $1,000. The IRS won't leave it alone even though our accountant has been handling the issue for months to explain it to them and our accountant is very good. They have bigger fish to fry but clearly enjoy attacking the little guy too. I have a friend who is a local insurance agent and he said he's been hearing plenty of similar stories.

    I see how that comes off as hyperbolic. What I meant was that nobody (so to speak) on the boards is going to get specifically audited over the way they report their miniscule 1099 income, be it Schedule C or not. Not reporting it at all is a different story. And yes, there are always random audits but again, taking into account the cross-section here, the risk is minute. Once they get their hooks into you is a different story and can go a variety of ways based on your agent.
