Awesome! Empire and Hives found! Anyone have Devo?? Thanks so much!

WAITING BY THE PHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE. Nice choice, sir. +1

Booyah!

So I'm working today/on RSD (work at the only record store in my town) and am not allowed to buy things. This makes me very very sad. It'd be awesome if anyone has extra copies of these that they wouldn't mind selling for cost+ship or whatever. I'm just bummed I can't snag anything :/. Here's the stuff I'm interested in. I shoulda put something out earlier, but it kinda snuck up on me. I'm also a little tipsy. Happy RSD. Devo - Live In Seattle 1981 Hives, The - Go Right Ahead Pop, Iggy And The Stooges - Raw Power (2 LP) Ramone, Joey - Rock ‘N Roll Is The Answer Soundtrack - Empire Records [2 LP][Orange Vinyl] Oddly enough, Empire Records is my most wanted.

Johnny Ramone's spinning in his kick-ass grave.

Running out of space. Make me some offers if you see something you'd like. http://deadformat.net/tradelist/Jpearin

This.

Oh man, please do. Either that or e-mail her and give her shit for it. Saddest part? She called me a few days ago saying she was bidding on a record and needed advice but couldn't tell me what it was (something she did for me earlier - bought me a sealed Elliott Smith XO on Bongload and Cake Fashion Nugget) saying it was a surprise. Turned out to be this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Circa-Survive-On-Letting-Go-LP-anthony-green-saosin-thrice-glassjaw-indie-RARE-/260993307351?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item3cc469d2d7

Ha. She's my ex-girlfriend. She's not looking for it for her nephew, she's looking for it for the guy she cheated on me with. 10ppd to anyone that scratches the fuck out of it before selling it to her.

I'll buy it off of you and actually listen to it, gimmie a price. You actually listen to your records? Lame bro. Lame.

This.

I got a sealed copy of the first, but it'd take a lot to get it away from me. Super pumped for this.

For popular name-brand drums, I'm Ludwig all the way. I have a kit of 2003 Ludwig Maple Classics that are beautiful and also a 1966 Ludwig Club Date kit that I got from Rob the drummer from Slapstick/Tuesday. I've used them in every setting, and with a little tweaking here and there, they've worked perfectly. You can usually find a real nice used set for anywhere from $300-$1500 (the Maple Customs were $1500, the Club Date $600). Remember, Craigslist is your friend. I don't buy anything drum-wise from people I don't know unless it's Craigslist. You can get some killer deals, too. I got a 100th anniversary 6.5x14 Black Beauty for $250. I've attached a video of the 2003 kit live. For tuning, I follow what sounds best. Every drum has it's own golden pitch. I tune bottom heads tight, and semi-loose on the top. I read that in a Dave Grohl interview once.

I'd try IJ as an alternative to SJC. IJ is a guy named Iggy who quit building for SJC a few years back - From what I was told, SJC couldn't keep up quality standards and still fill orders (like a lot of bigger custom companies nowadays). I bought a fantastic kit from him a few years ago. Only thing is he builds privately. I've got a bunch of stuff and really, I gravitate to early 2000's Ludwig Maple Classics and the IJ's. Most of all, you should actually PLAY different kits before you buy something. Everyone has different tastes. Only you can decide what you want.

I've heard terrible things about The Queen Is Dead reissue/remaster - primarily Moz' vocals being buried. I don't know how to feel about this. I've got an OP. We'll see.

Just shipped. Fuck yes. So pumped.

This is some cray-cray shit.

Had an ex-girlfriend who went/goes there. Visited a few times. Sounds about right.

Just got back from the show at the Riv in Chicago. He jumped directly into where I was at in the crowd. My brain and entire body hurts. I want this. Now.

John Linnell from They Might Be Giants put this out a few years ago.; http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KVlB3grV1lY/SSO_fJUotMI/AAAAAAAABbs/2iSiMx_zoR4/s400/P1020476.JPG

Jesus, don't tempt me. I have three different pressings.

...........................................what?

I wouldn't pay 3ppd for that Skiba record.

Fuck yes.
