Ok, so first and foremost Rocketown is a religious establishment, it was founded by Michael W. Smith as a Christian outreach to bring kids to Christ in alternative ways. Obviously most Christian non profit business will have conflicting world views, but will not discriminate when hiring the positions they have. I'm sure this employee would have had to receive an employee handbook and most likely signed something stating they received the handbook. In it I'm sure it discussed many things two of those things being what you can not wear to work, and the other is how you present yourself to your customers. Once you are in the Rocketown establishment as an employee you are no longer representing yourself you are now a representative of that company, therefore you need to follow the rules laid out. I'm sure if he was wearing a pot leaf tshirt the same end result would have happened. It clearly goes against what the organization stands for, but most likely they would get a warning and be asked to change their clothing or be sent home and be requested never to do it again or further punishment could be taken. While I don't know any of the exact details I feel as though this not a first time fireable offense. Either the employee has had issues in the past not specific to the tshirt wearing and this was a final straw or he had been reprimanded not to wear this type of clothing while working and continued to wear the shirt he was there for being insubordinate to his superiors which would be grounds for firing. I don't claim to know the specifics of if they have a handbook or what the general practices are of Rocketown, I'm only making assumptions. But I know I wouldn't go to my job if I truly liked working there and wear something contradictory to what that company believes or wants represented for their company.

I also don't understand why all the sudden he calls off the raffle because of what you're saying?  What you're saying does make sense, but at the same time like you said if he wanted to sell 40 tickets and make an extra $140 that's his prerogative.  Then that's up to us to decide if we want to participate in a raffle.  I'd still be into it if it was 40.  What I lose $20?  If I win I get a $700 record player?  Either way it sounds alright to me no worse than going and getting $20 in lottery tickets and winning nothing or going to the casino and losing $20 on slot machines.  Put the raffle back on.

Ordered this yesterday after listening to the streams.  These bands sound so good.

I mean they do still have this whole year to release the album.  Since on the kickstarter page from day 1 it said all album expected delivery dates were December 2013.  Which is one of the reasons why I didn't pledge on this kickstarter, I'm not pre-ordering something 2 years in advance...

I would think people would hope for this not to be posted today, and be posted tomorrow...with Hot Cash coupons starting to work tomorrow...

The way it sounds is that all funds go to the project ie the money is sent directly to Gotta Groove to be put toward the funding of the record.  The person putting out the record never actually touches any of the money except when the money exceeds the amount the bill is from Gotta Groove.  Its more of a pre-order system than kickstarter where you get nothing if its not fully funded.

Love them.  Favorite part of the morning shower.

Until the Manchester Orchestra Split finally pops up...

Obama is staging all of this right Dave Mustaine??

So basically what this thread has come down to is no one really cares that they're releasing a new album with their original lead singer with all new songs. People only want Moon is Down repressed, by a label that has nothing to do with the original release.

After tons of reading and researching for Ipad cases I ended up getting the Toblino 2, I couldn't be happier with it:

I listened to this yesterday and thought it sounded just fine. Also Mae just posted on facebook that a handful of records are available again.
So if you missed out the first time around looks like you have a chance to get a copy.
