I saw Buckethead Friday night and it was fantastic.  I didn't think I would like the backing tracks.  However, it just kept the focus on Buckethead.  My only complaint is that the venue oversold the show by what seemed to be about 100 people.  We left our spots during intermission and couldn't get back on the floor.  The silver lining is that Buckethead can still draw ~700 people in a small city like Madison, WI!

Sure, rub it in!  Still no slunk pass at my house...

I ordered the slunk pass too.  It has not arrived yet.  The cassettes contain unique, unreleased, one-of-a-kind guitar solos. 

 I'm going to see Buckethead on Friday night!

Also worth noting...  No loudness, compression, or brickwalling issues with Blues for the Red Son. You have to turn the volume up really high for moderate listening levels.  This is great for dynamic range and sound quality, but makes surface noise louder and more obvious compared to the music (lower signal to noise).  The noise is much more noticable, especially during quiet passages (e.g. sections of Thong Song). 

I will proabably buy Sky Valley too. Hard to pass up for $18.00

My Blues for the Red Sun is pretty noisy with about 10 "pops".  It looks clean, is pretty flat, and sounds good in spots where there isn't noise, but overall I am a bit disappointed.  I cleaned it with a VPI record cleaning machine before playing and again with Mofi deep clean solution, but no improvement. 

I am going to wait to buy the rest to see if mine was an outlier or if they are all noisey. 

This is, without a doubt, the greatest christmas album ever:

The new Hostage Records releases are for sale now:

I got my surf wax copy a few days ago and the vinyl is clear.

I ordered one of every variant. Still waiting to get mine in WI, but that's OK. This is by far my favorite record label right now.

Yes, you get your money back if you didn't get it. No big deal, it's just a record after all...

The sticker went in the garbage, not on the garbage can. My filthy garbage can is much too classy for that sticker!

I ordered the color version hours before it was taken down from the website. I got a letter today saying they ran out and couldn't fulfill my order. So, I won't be getting a black or a colored copy. They sent me a really nice glossy Fat sticker though.... I immediately threw it in the garbage.

For those of you that missed this, there is a black cover, red vinyl version of the Stitches record on Interpunk.

Cool! Hopefully I'll get mine this week.

Have the super nerd packages shipped yet?

What kind of record player do you have??? Chances are, it does not have an amplification stage in it. You will need to hook your record player up to a phono pre-amp or a receiver/preamp with a phono stage. From there, you hook up your speakers with speaker wire to an amplifier/receiver.

Hope that helps.....or maybe I am just confused by your post????

Thanks, Hickey. I wish that they would just list the price of the limited to 100 version. They don't respond to emails...

I've been very satisfied with with Pro-Ject USB phono preamp. Good sound for the price. The analog to digital converter and USB-out are nice features too.

Received my LPs from Damaged Goods. Listening to it now.

if anyone's thinking about ordering from damaged goods, we should do some bulk ordering to the states. It's $70 for all four colo(u)rs plus shipping.

I already ordered the four pack, but great idea nonetheless.

hahaha best username in here "telefunken" I still have an old radio from telefunken.

They made awesome vacuum tubes.

I made an impulse buy with the Blink records because of all the hype, but I am not a fan. Anyone wanna trade Blink records for an excellent condition Clash singles box set on 7 inch vinyl???????? If so, get in touch.

The cover looks a little budget, but its not that bad. Although, they could've thrown in some pics of Pricilla and Duffy. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr....

The Damaged Goods version might have a different cover that looks a bit nicer. In any event, I'm not buying it for the cover art.

Wanna see somethin?

Pre-order info for that 7" and the LP up tomorrow. I also turn 30 at the same time. :

Happy 30th! No thanx for making me feel old though...

Can't wait to hear it.

I would be content throwing $ at you now for a colored copy and getting a test press in my package. I'm too impatient to wait until December to hear it...
