No idea you were from West Chester, I went to Immaculata University, but spent most of my time in West Chester.  I still stand by Benny's is the best pizza ever.  Also West Chester is where I met Tokyo Rose and became their merch guy for a tour.  The church there had the best shows, that was a great place to see bands.

Love it man, yeah I moved away after high school in 2004, but my brother just moved back to West Chester a few blocks from Jake's Bar (best bar in WC). Will always love that town- and Tokyo Rose! Lol

I just listened to The End of an Error this afternoon. Really good stuff. Haven't listened to it in probably 8-10 years and still remembered most of the lyrics. While I couldn't think of the songs just by the titles, I remembered that Behind the Gun was the best song of the album

This rules. This thread alone has shown me there's a bit more demand for 'The End of An Error' than any of us ever thought, haha!

How the f did I not put two and two together, I photographed Mae in 2021 and I thought the drummer looked familiar, my photos here: The Juliana Theory / Mae – Theatre Of Living Arts – Philadelphia, PA – 11/28/21 – Favorite Sights & Sounds (favoritesightsandsounds.com)

Freaking wild, and I am from Bethlehem, PA Crocodile Rock was my go to place and I was totally at that show also.  I discovered Mae there also, bought the 4 song ep they self released and met their original guitarist outside.  Hopefully more Mae stuff comes down the pipeline like a new album, love everything they put out.  Bummed I missed the last few shows in PA, I think the one was in Harrisburg.  Wish I was photographing the Houston Calls show, but living in AR doesn't help.

Dude!! This is so awesome. That's totally me - that show was huge for me as I'm from West Chester, PA - So a lot of folks showed up of course. Your photos rule as well.

Definitely a lot more Mae coming this and next year! Hope to meet you in person at some show sometime soon. Thanks for supporting music I have played and currently play and all of that, it's fucking awesome.

Glad I got the splatter right away.  Would totally be at the Asbury Park show, but had to move to Arkansas due to work, will be looking for fan shot videos the next day to see what I missed.  Maybe do a live stream???  Last time I saw Houston Calls it was in Allentown, PA and I think it was Farewell and Punchline?  I can't remember the whole bill, but when I google dates apparently a show like that was downstairs, but I swear it was upstairs.

I would also love a pressing of End Of An Error, I love Short Stories, but Era was my favorite.  I remember when that came out Drive Thru was going under at that point and it was so hard for me to get a copy.  My local record store couldn't get it in.  Curious what these Drive Thru vinyl releases will be and if something like that album will get the treatment.  It's like Hidden In Plain View Resolution, love that album and feel like it didn't get the love it deserves since they broke up after it was released.

Man I love this! Croc Rock holds so many memories for me, played upstairs mostly but definitely downstairs once with Valencia. Fun fact: I've been drumming for Mae now since 2021 - and I discovered them at a Mae, The Starting Line, and Days Away show at the Croc Rock, lol. 
 

As for The End of an Error - the most love I've seen for that album is in this thread, haha. So who knows what the future holds. Glad some people dug that one.

I hope they press their second LP!  For some reason I dismissed it when it came out.. years later now I love it more than their first album.  It’s a solid record.

I love that you liked this album. I do too, but there's a lot we would have done differently in hindsight. Not sure about a press of this one, but we are planning on doing a b-sides/unreleased material LP. No solid plans yet but I know it's something we want to do with our friend's small label!

I have vivid memories of listening to this in my high school cafeteria every morning before school. While not an amazing memory, it does bring back feelings of being young. I appreciate those little things. Thanks for making the music.

 

Are you repressing end of an error?

Hey man, it's from 'that time' in most people's lives honestly. I drummer on that album when I was 19, and now I'm 37!
 

And I would guess not, as that record doesn't seem to be in demand, but if enough people were interested - I might be able to squeeze 500 out of Drive-Thru, ya never know!

could you give us more insight on how you KNOW its sold out though.... kidding.

 

congrats to you and the band on the awesome response to pressing this LP! 

Hahaha touché! And thanks so much, we were pretty surprised by the response honestly!

Where did it say Drive-Thru wouldn't do a second run? I'm also shocked that this sold out. I remember when this came out, and the response was mild.

I'm in the band. It's now sold out. No re-press. I remember when this came out as well, I was stoked on the response.

33 copies left. No re-press.

So quick. Was about to snag it.

Despite being frowned upon... I am looking to sell the back 5 records from my boxset that arrived today (BEAA, Panic, Secret Weapon, Plans Within Plans, & Self-Titled). PM me if you're interested and we can work something out!

Interesting, the description says red OR black. I guess it's random which one you get?
 

There's a drop down to choose!

Just cancelled my cream for $136 and picked up a Canadian copy of the red for about $75 USD shipped here:

https://shop.listenrecords.net/radiohead-kid-a-mnesia-lp.html

It comes out to CA $94.99 shipped ~ $75 USD. Worth the $61 savings for sure.

Would you split up a 2XLP because you only wanted to listed to the songs on the first record?

No. Apples and oranges.

As someone who has split up box sets...PEOPLE ASK US TO! Lol. I've had people on Discogs send me profane private messages for selling individual pieces of a box set and, literally, every time I've done it, it's because no one wants to buy the full box and then I receive at least one message asking me if I'd list titles individually. And, magically, people buy the individual titles right away.

I wonder if the angry Discogs users think I prefer to do 6 seperate transactions and get stuck with the 2 LPs no one wants and a bulky outer box instead of 1 transaction for everything.

People are insane. Who cares if you split up a boxset. I literally bought it for the first 5 LPs and I'm hoping I can sell the other 5 to people who want them individually! Seems like a pretty normal thing to do...

and that is the exact reason i was explicit in saying im not out here to flip or make money, just work with people who want records.  unreal.  maybe mxpx will go the way of FDR and find the person and cancel their order

That would fucking RULE.

That shit is absurd. 1.) that someone would do that and 2.) thinking someone would pay that. I feel sorry if someone actually falls for it.

I just snagged one, but have no interest in the back 5 records (BAEE, Panic, Secret Weapon, PWP, and Self-titled) if anyone is interested in shooting me an offer via DM or [email protected]. 

Please! I missed the boat on this one!

Anyone have any leads on one of these? Totally missed the boat...
