Oh man, I remember selling you my 1st press goddamnit (sealed) years ago (maybe 7-8??).

 

Anyways, do you have all the Traitors stuff?

 

i do! missing a couple tests, but have everything from the normal pressings. 

it's 2020 and i'm less than 20 pieces away from having everything that's ever been publicly available. please help me put this goddamn collection to rest. i'm so close i can't even begin to explain how much i want this to end.  

crossed off one of the Dead Ending variants. 

surely somebody has one of these Goddamnits, or a Maybe I'll Catch Fire...?

or one of the Skibas...

please i hate collecting this band already just let me be done with it 

i've really been going hard at getting these this year. knocked off 3 more in the last couple weeks. have leads on a couple more that should be incoming shortly. 

any and all help is appreciated. i'm into trades if you still want to have copies of these records in your collection, but i'm cool with buying outright, too!

Are any of the Goddamnit LPs the "redux" version?

they all have this cover:

so i think yes? but i'm not sure if only the very first pressing with this style cover is considered the "redux" version, but then once they had John Golden re-master it, if those versions are considered something else? idk. i hate collecting this release. it's my favorite record of all time, but collecting it and keeping all of the information straight has been a [goddamn] nightmare.

crossed another one off the list last month. would love to get this list down to under 10 things before the end of the year. i've got some work to do to make that happen, but i believe in myself. and i believe in you. let's help each other here.

gotten lucky this last month and knocked a few more off the list. 

help me cross off a few more?  🙏🏽

knocked off a few in the past few weeks. just a handful to go before this madness is over.

somebody has to have this 3rd pressing Agony & Irony on 2 x black vinyl, right? 1,500 somebodies technically. surely one or two of them are on VC...

looking to knock off some more stuff from my wants list this summer. most of these aren't super rare or expensive, so i'm happy to either buy them outright from you, or trade you a different variant of similar value. i have a ton of stuff available to trade, but we can talk about that if/when we get there because i don't want to list them all out lmao. yes, i know, some of these are available on discogs right now. but i'd rather trade with people here than deal with people there if i can.

as always, any test pressings or rare memorabilia (records, shirts, posters, tapes... anything) will catch my eye, whether they are listed below or not. if you or someone you know has something you think might be of interest, hit me up or put us in touch.

anyway, here are the variants i'm looking for:

For Your Lungs Only-era cassette tape

pictured below (unknown pressing info)

Goddamnit
7th pressing on black (limited to 550)
11th pressing on burgundy opaque (limited to 500)

12th pressing on black for retail (limited to 2,000)

13th pressing on black (limited to 500)

14th pressing on 180 gram black (limited to 500)

Maybe I'll Catch Fire

3rd pressing on black (limited to 500)

10th pressing on black (limited to 500)

11th pressing on 180 gram black (limited to 500)

From Here To Infirmary

2014 pressing on grey/purple marble (unknown pressing info)

This Addiction

1st pressing on grey marble (unknown pressing info... unknown if this actually exists??)

i'm also looking for some things by their related bands. same thing here, most of these aren't crazy rare or anything. i have things i'm willing to give up in a trade, but i'm also happy to buy straight away.

Dead Ending - Shoot The Messenger

1st pressing on red (limited to 100)

HIDE - Kill Your Head cassette

1st pressing (unknown pressing info)

Tuesday - Freewheelin'

2nd pressing on red/blue // purple blue mashup (limited to 1)

not sure if you or your buddy are interested in ANY jay ryan prints, but i have 5 different ones available in this album on facebook:

a super old/rare/autographed Alkaline Trio print from 1999, the iconic Smoking Popes turtles print, and a few others. check out the whole album and shoot me a message on facebook if you're interested. (let me know you saw this post on VC)

Guess you sold the Good Mourning UK version ages ago.

sorry, i'm just now seeing this! yeah, that one went pretty quickly. anything Good Mourning is usually pretty tough to find and/or pricey, even with the multiple represses. same with Crimson. those two are strange to me.

Still praying for a Heavens repress. 

as much as i would love this, i wouldn't be holding my breath. i've heard from a very, very reliable source that Heavens is a thing of the past, and there will never be anything more from that band. what's out there is what's out there.

i'm always adding new stuff to this photo album, so if you're interested in trio or their related bands, add me on facebook (and shoot me a message so i know you're from VC!!) so you get updates when new records or posters or shirts or whatever get added. as you can tell, i don't really post on VC too much anymore. and while i don't really post on fb too much, either, i'm on it every day and fb messenger is always a super quick way to get a hold of me.

if you can see a picture in the album, that means it's still available. once something is paid for, i remove the picture from the album.

TONS of great stuff is left. buy something so i can afford to go on tour in march <3

i hate that discogs doesn't have a search function within an individual seller's store (if there is one, i've never been able to find it on the mobile app). if a seller has less than 200 records i'll usually just look through them all, but any more than that, and i basically only look at "things in my want list" and if there are none, i don't look at anything they have. i'm sure it's saved me a ton of money over the years, haha, but as a seller, i wouldn't like that.

the Skiba guitar is pending payment. one of the copies of sundials is pending payment. the My Shame Is True Ouija Board set is pending payment. lots of other smaller records have been sold and their pictures have been removed. but still lots of good stuff... remains.

i thought this kind of thread was frowned upon, but i see people making posts just linking to their discogs page so i'm gonna do a similar thing here. i have a facebook photo album full of all sorts of records, posters, shirts, and other memorabilia that is all available for sale.

every picture's caption has that item's price. there are usually extra pictures in the comments thread of each individual picture, but if there is something in particular you're curious about or would like to see, let me know.

i'm posting this in a handful of places around the internet, so just message me on facebook if there's something you'd like to buy and we can figure it out from there.

THIS IS THE LINK SO CLICK HERE

i literally have copies of Sundials by Alkaline Trio, the Matt Skiba GPC Signature guitar, the earliest known Alkaline Trio poster in existence, bowling pins from Fireside Bowl, a Jawbreaker Live LP, a couple test pressings, records from Slapstick, Smoking Popes, Heavens, Tuesday... idk there's a whole bunch of crazy shit just check out the album it's all in there.

does anybody live in springfield (illinois) or kansas city? i got invited to the negro league baseball museum next week by the guy who runs it, and i'm trying to find places to sleep for the one night i'll be staying in each place. if you can help, hit me up.

if you've never been to the negro league baseball museum, put it at the very top of your "to do" list. i was there a couple years ago and it's one of the best museums i've been to. baseball or otherwise.

also, if you're a fan of baseball or african american / civil rights history and live within driving distance of the negro league museum, it is an absolute must see. i was there a couple years ago, and it's one of the best museums i've ever been to. baseball or otherwise. incredible displays, lots of cool memorabilia, extremely well thought out and laid out. it's super cheap to get in, and is in the same building as the American Jazz Museum, so you can hit two amazing museums in one visit.

here are some pictures from the NLBM:

hello people of VC, long time no see!

i got invited to visit the negro league baseball museum in kansas city next week by the guy who runs it. the problem is, it's an 8 hour drive each way from chicago to kansas city, and i only have two days off to squeeze in the visit and the driving, so the schedule is going to be pretty tight. i get off work monday night between 7 and 8 pm, so i was thinking of driving part of the way monday night after work, and maybe stopping in/around Springfield, IL that night. that way, i would only have about 5 hours to drive on tuesday, which would get me into town at a much more reasonable time. if you live in Springfield, wanna let me crash at your place monday night, knowing i won't be rolling into town until probably sometime between 11 pm and midnight? i literally just need a spot on the floor to crash (i'll even bring my own pillow and blanket!), and maybe a working shower would be nice, too. but other than that, you don't need to feed me or entertain me unless you want to.

i can be out of your hair as early as you need me to be on tuesday, because i'll still have 5 hours of driving left before i get to kansas city. so it would be nice to sleep a bit, but i'm fine waking up early and getting on the road if you need to get to work or something. the royals host the rays tuesday night, with first pitch at 7:15 pm. i'm definitely going to try to go to that game. then i have my meeting at the museum wednesday morning, which will be over by noon. the royals and rays play again wednesday afternoon, with first pitch at 1:15 pm. i'm thinking about maybe going to that game, too, and then driving back to chicago wednesday night to be back in time for work thursday.

if you live in kansas city, wanna let me crash at your place tuesday night, knowing i won't be getting back from the game until probably sometime between 11 and midnight? if you'd want to come with me to the game (either tuesday night or wednesday afternoon), i would be happy to pay for your ticket as a thank you.

tl;dr i need a place to crash in Springfield, IL on monday night. i need a place to crash in Kansas City on tuesday night. baseball and/or baseball related talk and activities will be involved.

dude was awesome to work with. super pro-active about messaging. hit me with tracking numbers right off the bat. everything was packaged well and came in great condition. would 100% buy from him again.

i have a shit ton of crazy rare Alkaline Trio, Smoking Popes, and other similar sounding bands' records and memorabilia listed in a facebook photo album. the pictures are of the actual items that are available, with prices listed and descriptions of any flaws / history lessons on some of the more rare or lesser known items.

click THIS LINK HERE to check everything out, and shoot me a message there if you're interested in anything.

i don't check VC super often anymore, so if you hit me up here, there's a good chance i won't see it.
