shenanigans

I like this idea. Google spreadsheet of what's available. Let people who bought in bid against each other (using their buy in money) for tests they want to keep. Then we'd sell whatever's leftover. This could take time, but we could divvy up any profits every ~4 months or so. I'd be happy to throw some $$ in and do some of the selling/shipping. Also agree with @smailtronicmaybe we should take this to a group PM with those who have said they were interested.

Hopefully someone took his class so we can market our new Redux

Wait, is VC actually talking about bringing back VC? Vinyl Collective Redux. I'd be interested in jumping in this. Hopefully Tidal Wave can get a better idea of what's in the boxes. Been following it for a few days, but the local pick up thing makes it difficult.

I had this conversation with them on twitter. Told them that the people waiting for the record don't appreciate email subjects like "Smartpunk learns to email good" with an LTJ update buried in 4 paragraphs of smartpunk shit and that we just want a "LTJ Order Update" email with 1 paragraph about when to expect records. I sent them a couple examples like OWTH Live album. Should send them the Descendents Suffrage update from KRM.

Is this website not confusing as fuck to everyone else? You click on the pay to cum 7" and it shows black vinyl but says colored vinyl limited to 1,000 and then says silver vinyl is limited to 300. S/t shows black vinyl, cassette, CD, and the punk note edition (which has a completely separate listing). It looks like HR put the website together.

FT/NOFX split on pink is up on Fat https://fatwreck.com/collections/colored-vinyl/products/nofx-frank-turner-west-coast-vs-wessex

Leftovers from the release show. They've been on Fat's site for months

So I have a Technics SU-G90 receiver that has the issue where the left speakers go out. It seems to be caused by the heat sinks getting hot and de soldering. https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/technics-su-g90s-poor-wire-contacts.640148/ I would have no idea how to resolder but I have a friend willing to give it a shot. In the case that it doesn't work or he destroys my unit does anyone want to take a peek on craigslist or FB marketplace and recommend me a replacement? I'd be looking to spend ~$50. I'm running a Technics 1200 with Kef Q15 6 ohm speakers.

And maybe you'll actually get it in 2022 after emailing them 25 times asking where your order is!

Apparently they sold out yesterday according to a reddit thread so either more were added today or carts were reset.

Pink is up. Don't miss it! https://www.recessrecords.com/product-page/screeching-weasel-some-freaks-of-atavism-lp-orange-vinyl

And based on them getting "some" at a time, the bigger the package you ordered the longer you're going to be waiting. Had a long discussion with them yesterday basically asking why it's so hard for them to send an email with the subject "Less Than Jake Updates" to tell everyone what's going on rather than posting cryptic shit on twitter and buring half updates in 4 paragraphs of newsletter with the subject "smartpunk learns to email good"

Smartpunk posted on twitter the other day. Would sure be nice if they sent an email update to those who pre-ordered rather than a "This record is delayed" a month after it was supposed to be released.

"Only 10,000"

Right? Could have sworn they did like 3 farewell tours

Color your own variant is delayed a week.

Amazing that they still couldn't update to the correct numbers.

What a shit show, but at this point it's pretty much to be expected with anything trever keith has his hands on. Refunds everyone and tells them its going up at 12:00 PST and then puts it up at like 12 EST. It was completely sold out by 12 PST.

What I'm saying is that while these records are pressed in Europe, it's up to the individual label how they get to the US AKA whether or not they're going to pay the exorbitant prices to have them flown over, but also where they end up in the US. Fat's stuff gets shipped to LA and then trucked to SF. That's a shorter trip than if Smartpunk's stuff ends up in LA and has to get trucked to Orlando, or faster if they fly it from there.

We're in the middle of a pandemic. Do you think when they sent these records to be pressed they knew that there were going to be no flights from Europe to the US? Do you think GZ is pressing records at full capacity? I'm sure Fat also is working packing up records with a smaller crew to be safe. And it's NOFX. It's probably 2 dudes in a warehouse packing up 10,000 records. Any of their other bands it's probably 1,000 and takes them a few days.

Most of Fat's records are pressed in Europe and because of the decrease in flights between Europe and the US they're being shipped from Europe to the US by boat and then on a truck to Fat from the port. The situation would potentially be different for every label though I think most go through Pirates Press/GZ.

Got an order confirmation randomly like a week later
