Anyone who's a fan of the late, great Eric's Trip knows how hard/expensive this LP is to pick up. First re-press run on color. Get on it!

On topic:
For me it's all about signal path and sound quality. So pressing digital music on an analog medium is silly. Pressing old pop-punk albums sucks because the recordings are usually sub-par to begin with and the labels pressing them don't put money into properly remixing or remastering them for the format appropriately (Thrice -- Artist In The Ambulance is a brilliant example). Pressing video game music is sincerely fucking wacky to me....8-16 bit digital bleeps and bloops pressed to an analog format....how many spins does shit like that get from the consumer? This isn't a hobby to me, this is a preferred format for listening to music that I love. I don't have great taste in music and I won't pretend to. I also happen to hate Sound Tracks (corporate mixtapes is what I call them). When major labels have money to throw around and press or repress bullshit releases from their back catalog with super shitty packaging and put really really high price tags on it and it has a negative impact (influencing the over-arching pricing scale for ALL releases) it happens to really really piss me off (currently dealing with this issue at work right now). They're also clogging up the pressing plants with this crap which ends up pushing quality releases further back in the cue. I can't wait for this whole damned thing to die back down so I can get decent music at a decent price on a format I prefer.
Sincerely,
Christopher Lynn Birdwell

More of an open paragraph really.

Dear Elitists, 
 
This is an open letter to all those on this board who think they know what should and shouldn't be pressed and are purveyors of taste, connoisseurs of classics and keyholders of THE HOBBY. Who are you to scoff at releases that are not as needed like a Mega Man comp or a pop punk record from ten years ago? They are nostalgic releases so they don't matter? Not everything can be the standard bearers of a mighty Nirvana or Zeppelin. Why can't there be room for everything and not just for the select few they are deemed approarate for the vinyl medium. Music is subjective and love is love. 
 
 

probably pissed because he wants some shit like dizzy up the girl by goo goo dolls on vinyl but its not pressed. Oh wait....

Because everyone says they got lucky and got it cheaper I should sell it cheaper when clearly they usually go for more? I apologize everyone lol I should just sell them for 10$ to please everyone right?

Sounds like a Mike Patton album

Yeah that kind of ruined what could have been a pretty great post.

You and I don't really see eye to eye often, but I back this 1000%. I have to tell someone this almost daily.

Score!

I'll be excited as soon as they offer media mail up to us Canucks

Jesus and Mary! That price tag!

Understandably, and that's why I said it's a long shot - I get it. 
 
I may be largely a stranger, but I did introduce myself.
We all start somewhere ,right?
I've been slowly posting, when and where it's relevant. 
I have made a few purchases/trades to start building up my feedback (even offered to help out with a few RSD things).
I haven't made any unneeded threads or otherwise acted like a noob to get known for the wrong reasons, but I am also not posting a bunch of BS just to pad my post count.
 
I presented some information and added a request (mostly joking but part hopeful) just on the off-chance that it could happen.
Even if the answer is probably no, you can't get anything if you don't ask for it, eh? 
 
Good luck with that mortgage payment, btw.

I've been here for years. I am on here everyday. Most days i am on here every hour. I read everything, even things I'm not interested in. I never post and i don't think there's anything wrong with that. There's enough stupid opinions on this site. You don't need mine. If I can help someone I would. I don't judge people on how many posts they have. But i do judge them on the useless stuff they post. Keep your nose clean and there's plenty of nice people that will help you out on here. No one knows me but they have still helped me out.
