Does anyone have an extra 1984 on yellow wax they're willing to get rid of? 

Someone Discogs does

So I've become obsessed with all things novo amor lately. Anyone else on here big fans?

Anyone know where to get some decent record dividers for shelves that won't break the bank like these. (They look cool btw but I gave up on entertaining the idea of having these months ago.)

I use these from amazon and I think they work pretty well.

Got the Clearaudio Talismann cart on that mt10?

I've always liked the design of the mt10. How about some better pics of it?

 

Yeah I'm loving the mt10 right now. The talismann cart actually exceeded my expectations thus far. I'll post some more pics when I get home tonight! 

I made a few upgrades over the weekend (mcintosh c2500 and mt10 turntable). Couldnt be happier w/ my new setup and sound!

I was lucky enough to see ryan play prisoner in full at a secret show in Manchester last night, it was absolute magic and the new songs sound great!

wow! how did you hear about it?

those rare 7s will probably sit in storage for a while. 

No doubt. I purchased this set because I'm a vinyl and RA junky but I completely understand that most people could care less about an expensive set of 7" vinyl. 

Im sure it'll be years before that thing sells out. 

3000 box sets? That's no fun. 

I thought with the count down and release date was being built up because only 1000 or less would be released. 

This is also greatly reduces any chance of getting one of the rare vinyl one of a kind pressings randomly inserted :/

Spent the last couple days remodeling my office / record listening / storage area. Still a couple smaller things to do, like waiting for my 7" wooden boxes, new speakers and a couple more frames to arrive, but this is pretty much it.

 

 

vis à vis:

 

I love it! Looks so good I want to redo my room now.

The sign ups haven't closed yet. 

thats odd... it does say on their site to sign up before 12/30/16.... hmm, sounds like the web guy messed up before going on vacation lol

When are they going to announce this damn Mystery Box!

who knows... since sign ups are closed on the website it could be announced 5 minutes from now or 3 weeks... only time will tell :/ 

sweet! cant wait! 

Friends of Sound Records is located on south congress and tucked away in a cool back alley. Super local store since many people in Austin don't even know it's there. Waterloo is always great but if you want a unique place that not everyone checks out, Friends of Sound Records is the place to go. They also have a special bin you can ask for that will have rare bootleg vinyl. I've gotten lucky there a few times with rare items you would have a hard time finding anywhere else!

Just saw him a few weeks ago in Austin. Interesting show to say the least 

sounds exactly like Gimme Something Good.... and i'm ok w/ that lol 

omg. RA please post the album info asap. i hate rumors w/out pre order links lol

I talked to Paul and Darren about this earlier this year and they laughed at that rumor. They said the only thing they lost in Katrina was the original art. They actually asked me that night if I'd buy a repress with different cover art lol.

 

Side note: They also said that Roy had the most copies of the first press out of any of the band members and joked that all the copies on eBay/Discogs are his haha.

How did you get to know them personally? 

I don't understand this price at all. I'm a die hard MM fan who purchased this regardless of the price but I feel cheated because of the price. 

Dont get get me wrong, I just paid $120 on eBay for a copy of armistice but when it's being sold for $75 direct from the band it's over the top. It feels like a cash grab... it's more about the principle than the price. 

Far and away best album of the year!!!

I'm listening now to the blu Ray audio in 5.1 and I'm almost through the album. I have to say the first four tracks were so-so in surround sound. But every track after that has been pure gold. You can really hear certain sounds swirling around you and it gives the album a very different feel - in a good way. I'm super tough to please with 5.1 surround music but this done really well. It's a must own!

ps - the stereo sound quality is superb at 24-192

how does the new album sound? 

Just got this in the mail today. Honestly, not crazy about it. Maybe I need another listen but it just wasn't his best :/

did anyone else watch his Radio City concert on their last tour a few years ago? that show was insane as well..
