Craig Owens wouldn't be back in the band if the other members of Chiodos didn't agree to it. It seems fairly obvious to me that it was a business decision on both of their parts, plain and simple. Neither Illuminaudio nor D.R.U.G.S. sold nearly as well as either of the first two Chiodos albums, and the turn out for their shows was considerably smaller as well. 

So while I'm not gonna defend Craig Owens, as I don't personally know the man, I will say that the other members of Chiodos, minus Jason Hale, played their part in his rejoining the band.

And really, it could be a lot worse. At least he's not Jonny Craig (although Jonny Craig is 100x the singer Craig Owens will ever be.)

I got to go to a small Acoustic show with them before the Devils Dance Tour. They are all some of the coolest guys you can meet, especially Craig. He encouraged everyone to talk to them and not just get a picture and bounce. He also took time to apologize for the inconsistencies of his and the band and the guys all agreed with him. He acknowledges he was a drug addict and is, from what I can see, doing his best to stay away from relapsing to that part of his life

One of his tweets from a few weeks back:

i've been wondering when apple will cut it out with the ipods and get shit going on the teleportation front

They wouldn't just change the game then... they'd end it.

BEYOND excited/impatient to get my clear - thanks for pressing this!

No shipping confirmation yet I want it nowwww

can you teleport here? please?

p.s. thanks guys

Just as I thought they didn't have it

They were surprised and had no idea it was even being released

Any HT store that sells vinyl

One would assume... but we only have one "vinyl" hot topic in my area and they don't get everything, and randomly one in a different city will get that vinyl

is there a way to see what stores got it?

Fueled By Ramen will be selling the fun. 10" in their webstore starting tomorrow at 10 AM.

Just came to post this

Got the clear

I can't decide if I want to buy Buddha. On the one hand it would add to the collection... on the other I'm not the biggest fan of the album

Do I go for the rarer variant or the cooler looking one? Decisions Decisions

I actually like the all clear one more. I usually love the splatter, but I'd much prefer the "rarer" clear version of this

both VB stores(Vinyl Daze and AFK books) only got 5 copies between the 2 stores of the Circa/Sunny Day split.

 

I managed to get everything i was after.  Which i was shocked as i was 34 in line.  Grabbed both MGMT's, Slipknot, Green Day demolicious, and the Paramore record. someone was walking by the cash line and had a copy of the Paramore record and asked if anyone wanted it and i grabbed it.   

 

Only complaint was it was raining.   But the free food and getting the records i wanted makes it worth it.

 

forgot to add i got buried alive from AFK books

That was me with paramore! haha

Missed out on Circa/ Sunny Day split. If anyone got an extra I'm interested.

I snagged Ghostbusters to trade - hoping to find a Circa for Ghostbusters

Fun. is gone. Damnit. Let me know if you get an extra.

Aw man I shoulda grabbed it for you. I had it but decided against it last minute

Got just about everything I wanted (and some I was on the fence about) at 2 stores in VB.

Biggest misses for me were the Circa/Sunny Day split and Hillsong United White Album.

Manage to snag Ghostbusters though if anyone is interested in a trade or something.

Plan 9 is usually ok. They have the most RSD stuff. I got their 30 min before open last year and their werent many people. Show up early and you should get what you want. Steady Sounds usually has some stuff as well as like 20% off all used vinyl plus they give out snacks to those in line (think it was doughnuts last year). Ill be hitting those two and Vinyl Conflict. Maybe Ill see ya there.

Thanks! Maybe I'll see you too! All depends if we decide to stay up there Friday night or drive up Saturday afternoon for the Chili Cook-off concert.

Theres a chance I will be in Richmond, VA on RSD. 

Any advice? I've seen Plan 9, but what time would I want to get there.

I usually go to my local one at 6 am and get free breakfast while I eat... sooo IDK what to do haha

Grabbed 3 just now, all backordered albums but we'll see what happens. 

 

Mayday Parade "A Lesson in Romantics", Streetlight Manifesto "Somewhere In The Between" and Bush "Sixteen Stone".

 

$28.05 shipped. Pretty gnarly, hopefully they come. 

Mayday was backordered when i bought a few week backs, but i got it a few days ago

glad i took a look at this thread! i just bought like 6 albums for 50 bucks!

i did the same! and while that sounds great, i bought two vinyl earlier for 50. and 3 the other day... this addiction is getting out of hand and way to expensive

Just got mine!

HTMAR14

worked for me, think its basically free standard shipping
