Bumping with fingers crossed... Would love to add the Aaron West stuff to my collection!

Here is an update on my The Wonder Years collection. I've been collecting their stuff since I first heard the band in 2010 and The Upsides helped me make some serious life decisions. I justify this because I love supporting the band that helped me change my life for the better. Some of these have been pretty tricky to find and I still have a few more to go but I got some free time and figured I would do it anyway. I don't collect Test Presses only because they are way too expensive and I could never get my hands on one let alone all of them. Also, for the record releases, I count it as one variant so I don't have multiples for The Greatest Generation or The Upsides. I have gotten a TON of help from people on VC, Dead Format and Discogs so huge thanks to the vinyl community. Hope you guys dig it. The Upsides Suburbia: I've Given You All And Now I'm Nothing The Greatest Generation No Closer To Heaven Sister Cities Glamour Kills Comp/Sleeping On Trash/Burst And Decay/Others 7"s CD's and Extras As far as I know, I am only missing these from The Wonder Years The Wonder Years - Sister Cities - Shinjuku Street Splatter The Wonder Years - Greatest Generation - Coke Bottle/Mint Split The Wonder Years - Greatest Generation - Clear w/ Orange Splatter And these from Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - Orchard Park Flexi Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - Bittersweet - Seafoam Green Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - Bittersweet - Blue/Green/Red Tri Color Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - We Don't Have Each Other - Blue/White Swirl Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - Routine Maintenance - Blue/White Swirl Tour Variant (Sold out the day before my tour date : ( Hit me up if you think I am missing anything or if you have any of these you want to sell...

Saw this band open for Hot Mulligan in May and they were the best band on the bill...I highly recommend checking them out and picking this up! Preoder Bandcamp Link

Well Mr. Satan, looks like we is some lucky mothafuckas...

Still love that record... I think I was able to pick it up for $30 off ebay back in the day.

Snagged the blue, looking forward to this... I really hope this leads to more releases like this from Numero...I still need to pick up Duster and Husker Du

Ended up finding some rare stuff and Got some help from Mr. Burner and Throughbeingcruel Still looking for the other stuff, hit me up if you are interested...I haven't taken pictures in 6-7 years and would love to get the rest of this stuff so I can take updated pictures...

I've had some pretty limited experience with the 78s which are fun to research but the majority of them aren't worth much. From what I understand, there are a few different labels that are very rare and are worth a ton, like the Paramount blues records. They are rare because there wasn't many of them pressed, but most of the white people dance music isn't rare because it was pressed for the masses. Your best bet is to look up individual titles, probably the ones from the labels you don't recognize will be worth more. Just know that typically the people who collect those kinds of records are looking for condition and rarity and often times are pretty intense about them. My advice, if you want to unload them is to get in touch with that dude and his wife and have them make you an offer. It sounds like they are interested and will give them all a listen which is ultimately the point of collecting...to enjoy the music. My best advice, is just because it is old, doesn't mean it is worth anything and that these records are only worth what other people are willing to pay. From what you have described it doesn't sound like there is anything really rare or hard to find but it is really hard to know without actually looking at them. You could also look them up on discogs.com. You aren't going to find a ton of the 78s on there probably but the LPs you should be able to look up. Best of luck!

Glad I didn't say hi then...that would have been a little awkward... Regardless, the newsletters are great! Looking forward to the next one!

This was quite an interesting read as I feel exactly the same way about Blink...California was garbage and this tour looks like less fun than a root canal. I loved this band so much younger but when it died the first time, it should have stayed dead... Were you at the Aaron West show at The Basement in Columbus the other day? I thought I saw you but wasn't sure since I really only know you through Jordan...

My red eye Cheshire Cat Pressing is bigger than your red eye Cheshire Cat pressing.... Just sayin...

If you check and it is the blue, I would be totally interested in it. Let me know a price if you are into selling it because I know before you were still planning on hanging onto it. Let me know man and thanks for the response either way.
