In my opinion this thread is pointless and a total waste of time unless you have already secured the rights from the label.

Have you contacted Island Records about securing the rights yet?

No matter how much "publicity" they get from this, there's no way it'll be enough to recoup the 13 grand they had to give back...

Side note: This record RULES.

hahah no, that's the gatefold art that you can see through the vinyl but I totally thought the same thing when I saw that picture!

I went to the show last night, wanted the LP but thought $20 was too steep for me.

That is so awesome! Definitely post some pics when you get #6, I would love to see that.

have fun missing out on some great releases. 2011 has been/is looking awesome. You're right. Who am I trying to kid?

My run is finally complete, too. Already picked up the SBB & Wollard/Burns, both are also great. I feel like I will be checking this board slightly less in the future now, which is probably a good thing.

Will these be available via No Idea at some point?

Yeah they are back up. Act fast!

Calling out someone every time it says "vinyl" annoys me way more than when people actually use that term.

I'm hoping no one updates this thread until the pre-order goes up so I don't have to keep constantly checking it...

This post has been sponsored by the word "step."

I mailed back a broken GPS watch through USPS. Then a few weeks later I got the package returned to me opened saying that the contents were missing and that I could "file a complaint with the post office to see if they ever find it." My only consolation is that the watch was broken which was why I was sending it back to the company and I also called Garmin and told them not to repair a watch with that serial number. Short version is that the USPS are a bunch of crooks and you should try to get insurance/delivery confirmation on anything you care about. This has never happened to me with records but I wouldn't put anything past the USPS. I feel your pain, man.

I'm sure he would make way more money releasing this himself than doing it through Vagrant.

I still can't believe I paid $2.17 for that Chinese Democracy LP a few weeks ago...

That's a nice gesture but if someone is under 50 years old and doesn't know how to purchase something on the Internet, buying records should probably be the least of their concerns.

What do you have against this kid? He's just someone like you who wanted a record.

Read this entire thread and you'll find your answer.

Can't wait for Total Clarity of this 7-inch. I'm guessing the Total Clarity pre-order will go up soon, so I'll be refreshing Fat's site along with the rest of you!

Please run for president. I'll vote for you.

I donated to his paypal account to get the LP package, although I'm assuming they aren't doing anything special for those versions. If they do, I'll post it here.

I'm guessing it will be pretty expensive; if I remember correctly the Sonic Youth package was $40 but didn't feature any physical incentives: just an ability to buy advance tickets and an early digital stream... so maybe $50 for this when you consider they typically charge $5 - 7 for a single 7-inch? That said I'll probably get this too since Matador uses super high grade vinyl and sleeves and the prices generally reflect the quality. Another plus is that you don't have to buy a T-shirt bundled with this!

This is a joke right? Yes, it was a joke!
