  1. I also dislike the shootout. AHL this year is doing 3 on 3 overtime, after 4 on 4 I think? And then a shootout after 3 on 3. But so far out of like...6 or 8 games? Can't remember what I read. None of them have gone to a shootout. I think 3 on 3 would be just as entertaining if not more, end almost as quick, and feel...right. Like it actually decided who was the better team that day.

  2. Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare on PS3. I had planned on going the DIablo III route but ended up grabbing this first. I can't stop playing. It is wonderful. An extremely well balanced team shooter with a tremendous amount of unlockables to keep you coming back again and again. A mediocre substutute for TF2 on ps3 since it's imposssible to find a copy of the orange box.

  3. Hi all,

     

    Just received my first ever Third Man vinyl roulette and the 'mystery prize' was a White Stripes elephant sticker where jack and meg are clothed skeletons....never seen it before but it seems pretty lame.

     

    Can anyone shed any light??

     

    Thanks.

     

    I don't know what it is. But it is called a vinyl roulette. It's kind of luck of the draw. I don't know how much you've seen of what some people get out of it but sometimes people get vinyl thats worth hundreds of dollars. And sometimes people get a sticker or a postcard. That's the nature of what you chose to buy. And it's actually a pretty cool thing and a good deal considering most labels don't do anything extra when you buy 5 of their singles. They just mail them to you.

     

    Not be a dick, and I can understand you being a little disappointed as you probably got your hopes up, but not everyone can be given extremely rare, expensive records . But I mean it's still basically a free bonus of some form of merchandise from a broken up band that isn't for sale anywhere. Gotta keep things in perspective.

  4. PSN has a 99 cent flash sale on and I got Legend of Dragoon, Twisted Metal Black, Dyad, Papo & Yo, and Thomas Was Alone for $4.95

     

    Loved TMB when I was younger and never tried Legend of Dragoon but I always loved FFVII and am replaying that right now so I'm going to get to LOD when I'm done hopefully. And the others I've just always been interested in but never pulled the trigger.

  5.  

    Did anyone get the Jack White Fenway Park tix from The Vault presale yet?

     

     

    Probably won't receive your tickets for a while. They state that you should have them at least 15 days before the event? I think... and if not to contact them. At least I'm pretty sure that's what it said...

     

    I view it like the one time I bought tickets to a concert through StubHub. It told me I would have my tickets at least a week before the event and they came about three weeks before.

  6. Check out the protomen while you are there. They know how to rock.

     

    Tour presses on warped is the dumbest and most dangerous idea ever. How many of those pink copies will even be usable.

     

    Last time I was at a Protomen show I bought my vinyl before the show started. I regretted it the moment it started. It made it home safe, but I spent the entire show doing my best to protect it so it hurt the experience a little.

  7. That really sounds cool, where did you pick it up?

     

    Just at London Drugs. It's a chain of stores in Canada that sells a huge range of stuff that has a small and usually overpriced vinyl section. After seeing it there I found the release online on Amazon and other sites for a bit cheaper. Still it's always nice to buy it in person.

  8. Bought an intriguing new release I saw today. Johnny Cash Vs. Bob Dylan. It's a 2LP compilation of songs by Cash and Dylan and it seems as if it switches  back and forth from one to the other pretty much every song. It's on red vinyl. Haven't spun it yet to see how it sounds.

  9. What record?

     

    Wouldwork by Infantree

     

    It's not extremely uncommon, and its still in print. But I have absolutely no money for records right now because my fiance just lost her job and were getting married in six months... this was from an order I placed using a gift card I got for my birthday a month ago. So the combination of me not being able to replace it for a potentially long time (even if it's not rare), and it being an album I think very highly of makes it sting a lot.

  10. So this actually doesn't belong here. Since it's about vinyl. But I just played a record I just got that I've wanted for a real long time and I think is an amazing album, went to put it away, and drop the freaking thing and it hits the corner of my dresser before hitting the ground. Now it's got bits of red paint scraped into it and skips on 3 of the six songs on side A....

     

    It feels like a cousin I never talk to but still care about their well being just fell severely ill.... my fiance says I'm acting like someone died.

  11. I think I know what you're talking about. Small things like this will kind of happen overtime and are almost unavoidable.. Maybe you have packed records too tightly if the spines are creasing? They're putting pressure on one another? That's the only thing I can think of...

  12. Are there any "side projects" out there that you find better than the original project that an artist was involved in? Let's face it, a side project has a bit of an implication with it that it is not as good or popular as the main one.

     

    I have a few to get going. Of course everyone has different opinions :P

     

    The Last Shadow Puppets -  I really liked the first few albums of Arctic Monkeys, and still have enjoyed all their albums. But when I heard The Last Shadow Puppets I was almost blown away that it was a side project. Alex Turner and Miles Davis do a great job here. It's got the lyrics and rock of early Arctic Monkeys fused with awesome orchestral components courtesy of some cool guy named James Ford who I have no knowledge of :P

     

    Rain Machine - Kyp Malone from TV On The Radio's solo album. I moderately enjoyed most of TV On The Radio's album's but this was way more up my alley.

     

    annnndddd..

     

    Them Crooked Vultures -  I enjoy The Foo Fighters. And I enjoy Queens Of The Stoneage. But I LOVE Them Crooked Vultures.

     

    Honorable Mention to : Street Sweeper Social Club (As good, but not quite better than Rage Against The Machine)

     

    What about you guys?
