  1. i went to amoeba in SF a few years back and the people i was with had to yell at me to get me to leave. best store.
  2. I use AIM at work all day.... people sitting right next to me will IM me instead of just talking... it's like stepping into a time warp every morning i thought this only happened at my office. good to know it's not just the south.
  3. Good Old War - Come Back As Rain vinyl bundle Third Eye Blind - S/T Jack White - Sixteen Saltines 7" Edgar Oliver In the Park 7" First Aid Kit - Universal Soldier 7" Death Cab for Cutie - Sound of Settling 7" goodthe best fuckin mail day.
  4. i regret purchasing a copy of this from best buy last week. that is gorgeous. fuuu edit: this is what i got from best buy...figured i'd get black
  5. you post on a vinyl messageboard but aren't willing to drive 20 minutes for a few of the best record stores in the state (if not the country)? all day fucking rules, cd alley is the SHIT if you're patient and like digging, and the new record store IN THE GROOVE is supposed to be GREAT (carrying all of sorry state distro!). not to mention you're only a few hours from charlotte and lunchbox records, or a few hours south of richmond. seriously folks, it's fucking UNBELIEVABLE to me that in 2012 there are still people into "punk" that think it's awesome to shop at hot topic. travis, I hope the place you work at is as soul sucking as it seems, and I hope they go out of business. It has nothing to do with twilight shirts or good vinyl prices, it's about taking money and spending it in the wrong place. get fucking fired or at least stop using this board as an outlet for fucking HOT TOPIC "i post on a vinyl message board" what the fuck does that have to do with anything? keep talking like you know my financial situation, bud. these days shipping is cheaper than the gas it takes for me to get to these places. at the end of the day i'm doing the best i can to support bands i love and local stores with the finite resources i have. but please, continue to tell me my business...on a message board.
  6. i love that that kid is actually eating sand.
  7. just did a spit take at the aladdin one
  8. I hope you're kidding. Why would you care about Hot Topic carrying records if you can just go to Bull City, CD Alley, or All Day Records? because i live literally 5 minutes from the mall, and 20+ from any of those. i get to bull city and schoolkids as often i can. calm yourself.
  9. Opening these is always extremely satisfying.
  10. can you use your powers to get the HT at Streets of Southpoint Mall in Durham NC to carry vinyl?
  11. its times like these i remember how much i love the city of richmond. i have 4 record shops all 2 miles or less from my house. (steady sounds, deep groove, vinyl conflict, and plan 9) the first three exclusive to only vinyl records. internet high five for lucking out with record shops close by! Bull City Records in Durham, NC is my saving grace.
  12. i think i need to start watching that next season. i keep missing good bits of info, like the stuff with Michonne. i haven't read the comics so i'm kinda in the dark.
  13. OP chose wisely. @steviex2shoes, how realistic is it for you to put away some money so that your wife could look for another job? i mean at the very least that'd improve you guys' quality of life a bit. can't imagine the stress that comes from those kinda hours.
  14. it's gotta be months if it's fall/early winter. i mean carl's all running around not staying in the house and he was shot in the gut. plus that randall guy's giant leg wound had healed enough for him to walk
  15. Because of people like this: "Thanks for all the blink re-presses! I got every color of all of the TOYPAJ as well as every color of the newest Enema, Self Titled, and Dude Ranch. I'm happy to give you every penny I have!" is this real life
  16. i lied. i bought this along with that First Aid Kit 7" and the Edgar Oliver 7". love that guy.
  17. nice, ursa major is back in stock. gonna pick that up for sure.
  18. Well, carbon is stiffer and less resonant than aluminum, so the upgraded Debut Carbon should be an improvement over the regular debut. Of course, without ever hearing both of them back-to-back, it's tough to say for sure. If it were me and I had the money, I'd probably go for it. After all, tonearms are an important part of the turntable's sound. As for the OM 10 vs the 2M Red, there's probably not a huge difference. The Red is probably slightly more detailed. Looks like you could upgrade that one with the 2M Blue stylus if you wanted to, but not with the 2M Bronze or Black. The OM 10 is upgradable as well, and you have more options. There's the 20, 30 and finally the 40. The only real way to decide it to listen to both, but if you're not able to do that, I'd go with the OM 10 for now. Who knows - if you're not familiar with Ortofon's signature sound, you might not even like it, in which case the cheaper option is preferable. And as I mentioned, if you do like it, there are a few stylus upgrades. thank you so much!
  19. what this guy said. i got a messed up record in the mail today because the guy mailed it in a bubble mailer. gave me a 25% refund though, so that's cool.
  20. i won a copy of Dashboard Confessional - Swiss Army Romance on ebay ...got it today and the kid shipped it in a bubble mailer. the sleeve is destroyed, huge creases all over it. send the kid a message asking for a partial refund.
  21. I have 6. Or 10. I can't keep track. They are all from The Used.
  22. best recent purchase was trade + cash for Third Eye Blind S/T. cannot wait for that mail day.
  23. been thinking about upgrading for a while, and while looking up the pro-ject debut III, i saw the announcement for the pro-ject debut carbon: http://www.project-audio.com/main.php?prod=debutcarbon&cat=turntables〈=en thoughts? how much of a difference would there be if i went with the OM 10 cartridge instead of the 2m? $400 is reeeeally how far i could go at the moment with my finances the way they are.
