  1. I only spend like $30-50 a month now. I've been very careful.

    I feel like if I stayed away from VC for a month, I would probably save a lot of money. So many preorders and deals/sales... I can't help it. Ugh.

    Yeah, staying away from VC would bring down my purchases quite a bit. But... I can't help but go on auto pilot and check the site everyday.

    I seem to be spending an average of $150 on music each month. But I really need to slow down on the purchases for a bit, because I have an outrageous amount of CDs, LPs, and 7"s that are in my 'not yet listened to pile.' It's almost as if I have my own little personal record store...except I don't get many new releases in.

  2. Great band! If you don't have anything by them, you should give it a try. I actually think that I like the songs on the split more than the full length, but I usually have a tendency to stay true to the first songs I hear by a band more than others...if that makes sense. Anyways, highly recommended!

    PS - Chuck, I hope you make it your new years resolution to keep releasing records! ;)

    No worries buddy I have a bunch of releases in the works as we speak including some new stuff from Sister Kisser and a bunch of surprises I am really excited about expect a update on everything very soon. 2011 is going to be a big year for Gruff Beard!

    Good news! I'll be looking forward to it!

  5. i wonder how long this well last

    any guesses on which 2 wont get shipped?

    It says it'll run until Dec. 3rd.

    I just noticed that Teen Idols - "Pucker Up!" is no longer available to purchase, so maybe that's one of them. Although they could have took it down because of how few there were left, and wanted to make sure that more people than not got it with the sale. Who knows? Purely speculation.

    I don't think I'll be able to get this anyways, so it doesn't much matter to me either way. I would totally hop on this if I had the cash...

  7. I don't care either way. But I know people who do. I remember my mom telling a story about how at work someone said "Merry Christmas" to her, and then she's all "That's exactly right! Merry Christmas! That's what I say!" She works at a hospital, and I guess saying Merry Christmas is frowned upon there. I just don't get how people can get so upset about it either way. There are worse things to say to a person.

  8. I will say that Matador is starting to release more economically based records and pressing 120g instead of 180g, and lowering the price 4 or 5 bucks... but they could more than likely offer them for less than that and still be just fine. I know I'd probably pick up more of their records if they did, and maybe even check out one of their newer bands. But as it is, I'll stick with what I already like.
