  1. Nobody told me not to, but I haven't listened to any new tracks.
  2. I’m holding out hope for Amazon JP. That’s how I bought the last round.
  3. Aw man that's a bummer. We have to fight allocation down here in TX--distributors unload on big chain liquor stores (Total Wine, Spec's, etc) who allocate their stock to restaurants/bars (big accounts), and if any is remaining it goes to loyalty club high-rollers behind the scenes. It's a joke. I was able to get Yamazaki 12 and Blanton's recently at a small town shop owned by an older Indian gentleman and his wife. The other system I've seen is a more open loyalty system at a small shop, where you can purchase from a shelf of rarities after you accrue a certain amount of points in the shop. I just don't drink that much, but it's a better system than most.
  4. re: rare bottles, you're better off going to the hole in the wall spots that are off the beaten path. I've found some really good stuff just collecting dust on the shelf. and also, a lot of shops will hook you up if you're buying something else--if you're already buying an expensive bottle, ask if they've got anything else behind the counter. could get lucky!
  5. I'm not sure exactly, but when all was said and done I think I paid in the realm of $45-50 each for the two releases I bought--that's including retail price, proxy fees, domestic shipping in Japan, and international shipping to me.
  6. They're nice, I bought 'Happy Bivouac' and 'Little Busters'. Really want to get 'Fool on the Planet' now too. I recommend the proxy service FromJapan if you end up going that route.
  7. Informed delivery, never received a notification from the band
  8. It's a great movie, but not my favorite Kubrick, by a mile.
  9. Let me know if you have a copy to sell/trade. Thanks!
  10. Heads up, vinyl won’t be sold until they’re back from the European tour.
  11. Could just be an unrelated release? I’d imagine Mondo would do something a little more special than a 2xLP live album.
  12. I'd take it. Hope it's selections from the entire series. I really want "Moving On".
  13. Pretty stoked about these. Haven’t listened to either in a good while but I need them.
  14. Track 8 is 1 min long, not sure where you’re getting minutes of ambience from.
