Stopped by the local record store for the first time in a few months and walked out with; Bright Eyes - Lifted.... Elliott Smith - Either/Or

My Two Gallants collection. Not a big collection but almost full. I am missing "What The Toll Tells" on vinyl, first press of "The Throes", and "Nothing To You" Remix EP. I might go more in depth and grab advances and promos too, but we'll have to see what my wallet thinks of that.

Transferring schools can be good or annoying. I went to Ohio University for one of their quarters, and it was a pretty awful experience. I liked the people and stuff, they just screwed me over with credits and classes.

Well since I moved back home I have forgotten how humid the basement gets and am in need of some more plastic sleeves to help protect my records. Anyone know of a place to buy them in bulk for cheap? I need a bunch for 12" and 7" records. Thanks.

I start next tuesday. should be my last year before I get some kind of degree. Though right now I'm still feeling sick so I might have to take a semester off. I really can't stand college anymore.

I've got a ton of old cds from when I was younger, a few from friends, and a few duplicates that I need to sell off. It seems like too much of a hassle to ebay them so I may just take them up to the local "Exchange" for some cash or store credit depending on how the vinyl selection is looking.

I hear some lucky AP employee has their album.. might that be you scott?

Yeah all my stuff is in my basement and it gets pretty humid down there, so I try to run my dehumidifier as much as possible. A few of my dvd inserts still show a little warp from the humidity.

Oh, I like the idea of a contest or something for the test presses.

I've been collecting; Brand New Portugal. The Man Two Gallants No other bands I am really interested in a complete set so far.

I love this band beyond words. I already preordered all 4 colors last night.

Pre-ordered: Portugal. The Man - Church Mouth (All 4 colors - so happy about this!!!!!) Two Gallants - Two Gallants 180g Edit: Anyone else love how saddle-creek presses everything on 180g and it is still cheap.

There was another one up a few weeks ago. I think it went for around $80 or so.

I dislike both, except cheese cake is ok on occasion.

I just bought it off a German seller on ebay. Now I'm just waiting for Virgil to put out Church Mouth.

Portugal. The Man - It's Complicated Being A Wizard 12" Bought it off a German seller on ebay.

Probably the reason I won't be going

Nice on posting from the show. Thanks for checking though, and hope you enjoy/enjoyed the show. Anyone try to order from defiance's site? I tried to email them about shipping to the US, but they never replied.

If anyone is going do you think it'd be possible to pick up the wizard ep on vinyl for me if they are still selling them? I'd be happy to throw a few extra bucks on tops of the cost of the vinyl+shipping. Thanks.

edit! i realized that this is rated R and i'm 15, therefore i need a cool plot to sneak in or something. anyone want to suggest something really sneaky to get in? i think i should make a fake idea that says i'm mclovin, the 25 year old hawaiian organ donor. any employee would HAVE to let me in for that one... They ID for movies like this? Anyway buy a ticket for another movie and then just go into Superbad.

I am looking to trade this for a select few records I need. I know it may be a long shot but am going to give it a try. My wants: Brand New - The Quiet Things... (First Pressing on Red) Brand New - Jude Law 7" Two Gallants - What The Toll Tells 2LP Two Gallants - The Throes (First Pressing) Portugal. The Man - Wizard EP 12" (German Pressing) Portugal. The Man - Church Mouth (German Pressing) Portugal. The Man - Waiter (German Pressing) Edit: Fixed grammar

Minus The Bear - Planet of Ice (white w/ silver)

oops, misread that.

I've got Springsteen, Bruce - Live/1975-85 somewhere in my house that I'm willing to trade. I might even have born to run somewhere, will need to look when I get home.
