  1. I never felt so shaky typing in all my info. hope they had more than one! I didn't check this thread as much today but I guess I refreshed at a good time
  2. I'm hoping Tame Impala shows up at Turntable Lab soon *crosses fingers* my last hope
  3. Yeah, when I got my friend to go to a store downtown for me, they told him that the Tame Impala sold out in 10min. I'll hope it's a distribution thing and more stores'll slowly get more in. hah
  4. Hopefully we both get one then! I signed up for an email notification from Turntable Lab in case it goes up there. that's the only other lead I have currently :|
  5. Is it sad that I keep refreshing the Tame Impala on Bullmoose hoping it was overlooked? last thing to make my rsd complete, but don't want to pay the crazy eBay prices... ahah. hopefully sometime this week it'll pop up somewhere
  6. All I wanted was Tame Impala, had everything prepared and it's one of the in store only ones? I guess it's better than it being there and not being able to checkout maybe :\
  7. Probably if you email them you can ask to cancel if it takes too long. now that I think about it, they probably only asked if I wanted to wait when I asked what the hold up was... hahah
  8. I'm still looking for a copy of Twilight Sad at a reasonable price... any UK buyers out there? thanks!
  9. Last RSD I ordered from them and it took them a month to fulfill the order, but they did ask if I wanted to wait after maybe a couple weeks when they said they'd be getting one in. it could've been special circumstances. I still only got half my order so I kept an eye out for other options along the way
  10. I'm bummed out that I can't find Twilight Sad online except on eBay for over $100 USD... I was hoping to spend between $60-70 tops. if anyone runs across one online in that price range (or less! hah) or picked up a copy/can, I'd be grateful for a heads up on it, it was my main want. thanks!
  11. Anyone in the UK, I'm still looking for that Twilight Sad release, thanks!
  12. Hmm okay, sent them an email. I'll see what they have to say. for the price I'm good either way... at least it came with a dl code
  13. I forgot to say that my stuff came in late last week. all was decent (Volbeat semi-warped but still plays okay...) except the Touche Amore which was so warped it looked like you could surf on it. I ended up trying the oven trick on the Touche Amore instead of returning it 'cause I already used the dl code before checking the record out completely; I half pulled it out, but it was messed up on the other side... argh. I think I ruined it, but not all is lost I guess. I can make a hat maybe It's too bad the sale's over, but I'm 85% pleased with what I got.
  14. Hm, wow... maybe I bothered sub pop for no reason (beyond a tear in the center label and some pops ), but ah well. I know the last Twilight Singers that I got on cd was heavily compressed 'cause I tried making a mix and it was louder than every song I tried adding so I couldn't put it on, but this sounded almost slowed down in parts that shouldn't be on top of that
  15. My copy mostly sounded muddy/weird on the second record and especially on the track 'Lottery'. I was told by sub pop that some of it was supposed to sound distorted with the guitar or something, but I dunno... it sounded worse than I remember the stream sounding. I guess I'll find out when I get the replacement. there were some pops here and there for me, too but mostly on the second record, so I guess it's random with that. heh
  16. I saw someone posted on the fan page who got a poster... grrr hah Just thought I'd come back and say that I still had problems with the second record and am getting a new copy of the second record after emailing sub pop today... very cool of them 'cause I couldn't capture the sound problems on video well I'm loving this record, but so far stuck to the first record mostly.... hah I still love Gentlemen best 'cause that's the one that clicked for me and got me obsessed, but this is a solid album. I always love Dulli (As an aside, as for Sun Kil Moon, I love Kozelek, too)
  17. Thanks! Yeah I did see it listed on Norman Records (used to shop there) for the 25 price and am keeping an eye on that just in case. the price did seem a bit high, but for my only must have, I guess it's alright. my bday's in May so I can just deduct from my gift budget... heh
  18. All I really have to have this year is The Twilight Sad - Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters I skimmed the thread and see I'd be second in line to want this I think It's UK only and a limited amount of 500. any help appreciated! this is a first since I usually just wait for some online store to put it up afterwards or eBay if really desperate, but I'm worried about whether it'll even appear there of course, any help with seeing it online if it's not seen in stores is also appreciated after the day, thanks!
  19. I ordered some stuff from the sale that shipped tonight: Portugal The Man - The Satanic Satanist Placebo - Loud Like Love Boris - Attention Please Flaming Lips - The Terror Touche Amore - Is Survived By R.L. Burnside - Mr Wizard and Volbeat - Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood. it didn't ship yet, but is processing, so doesn't appear to be backordered. I tried ordering the non-pic disc, so it wasn't on sale, but just something I wanted as well. anyone else try to buy the regular version (2009, not 2012)? I'm just hoping BB labels things right with the years... ahah
  20. It just arrived about an hour ago. no signed poster here At first I thought this was white marble, but I guess one of my records just got pressed after a black record 'cause the one is bright white and the one has black marks in a marble-y design on the edges of both sides... I kinda like it though and actually this record sounds the best of the 2! There are parts that sounded slightly off (especially on the third side), but I'm hoping a good clean'll fix that. it's only at certain parts; sounds muffled. hopefully no one else experiences that. I'll update if cleaning helps at all. sub pop vinyl is hit or miss for me. the packaging for this release is pretty great though beyond this slight issue The dl code doesn't work till April 15th btw. I tried using it
  21. Yeah, mine is set to arrive tomorrow (or well later today) too... I was surprised and wondered if I had ordered something else from Sub Pop recently... hahah. can't wait! I enjoyed the stream
  22. Cool. This is the last good book I read and I read it in 2012... hahah. I should reread it. my friend that I mentioned still hasn't finished it and finds the second part slow. to me, Murakami could write about staring at the wall doing nothing and I'd read it though No prob
  23. [Edited to add that I only show this album for the first few minutes of the vid...]
  24. I took a listen and beyond a couple pops/crackles, it plays pretty well for a pic disc. mine had too small of a hole (dunno if this was an issue with all or just mine/my turntable) so I had to use a blade to get it on there, but that was the only scary thing about this record for me great performance I made a video showing this, but not playing it unfortunately
  25. I got a late confirmation email (probably from earlier 'cause it has the January date... hah), but my account is still broken and no response yet on fixing it. I hope it really went through. I hardly ever luck out with random things, but that poster seems exciting and white vinyl is always nice [Edit: I got a reply and my account's now been fixed and the order def went through, so now I'm officially fully excited for this! ]
