  1. After the JEW price-craziness (both ebay and non-ebay) i would think/hope this price would get more people interested in the package. hell, lots of other bands would stick $70 price tag on this based on the items included and then watch the PO dollars roll in. i honestly expected $50 minimum.
  2. I know tote bags up the punx, but my cred has slipped since i turned 25.
  3. good to hear! thrift stores are always a good last-ditch effort. sounds like you picked up a combo stack. those are great as back ups, but be aware of the quality of the needle on those things, a low quality needle can fuck up your records over time. it is possible that JVC might actually have replacement cartridges available for that unit, but you'd have to do some digging.
  4. good stuff in this package. actually things i don't mind spending more to get. i hate when packages tout lame merch intended to entice buyers. like those shitty "pit gloves" some band was selling with their album, or the White Crosses tote bag. wtf was that shit?
  5. Here is a link to some solid, yet relatively cheap preamps: http://www.needledoctor.com/Online-Store/Budget-Phono-Preamps As for finding a vintage receiver on the quick: best bet is to visit or call up any thrift stores in your area. sometimes a cheap thrift receiver (with phono input, of course) can make do until a proper one is found. just ask to test it before you buy it. this is crucial in the thrift game. but do not rely on a cheap thrift receiver to be a permanent fixture, more like a spare one in case something happens to your main one (like in your initial problem).
  6. rolling stones - bitch 7" jimi hendrix - fire 7" roy orbison - only the lonely (mono) 7" the doors - riders on the storm 7" foo fighters - medium rare lp fucked up - david's town lp bob dylan - live at brandeis university 1963 (mono) jimmy eat world - bleed american 3xlp had the beach boys 2x10 in hand, but remembered it was a 78rpm. fucking very lame, it was a great looking package. oh and a copy of macgruber on dvd for $6
  7. people in michigan--- i know a shop called Rock of Ages in Garden City had quite a few copies of this for a price tag of $39.99... dunno if they sold out by the end of the day, but if you're desperate it may be worth a shot. And i was also okay with paying a bit more for this, like other guys said, it's about $15 per record, with great packaging and rare cuts that i would expect to be included in a "deluxe edition". it plays and sounds amazing, and is a record i will get a lot of spins out of. I had to resist the urge to take of the shrink and place it directly into a record frame to display on my wall so everyone could see it. no you cannot listen! you may only look!
  8. I don't know about the price at other places, but at my store I peeped their exlcusive CD for 29.99 @ RSD. not really my thing, but I saw quite a few people pick up it with the intention to buy. But then they saw the price and it was quietly and quickly set back down. "Oh sweet! The Mumford exclusive edi- Oh... Nevermind."
  9. Attendance is above average for an MLB team I'd say. If you don't care abut where you sit you can usually get tickets the day of. I'm no big baseball fan, but I don't think Tampa will be a sell out game. If you do want good seats, i'd look into buy in advance. there are a ton of season ticket holders. the place is usually very full (from the times i've gone) but the atmosphere is great for a ballpark, complete with artery-clogging food and 8 dollar beers. but Comerica is a very nice stadium and the surrounding area is pretty nice/safe too. and i know it's been said multiple times, but DIA is an absolute must. You could spend an entire afternoon going through the 3 floors. plus they recently renovated it, and it is spectacular.
  10. I'll be there too. Magicstick is one of my favorite venues mainly because it's so small and there is no barricade. HWM will be insane here. Detroit's not all bad, just sections of the inner burbs can be. in the real downtown you have standard bums and standard filth that you find in other cities. just don't be stupid when you're there. IE- the stuff you normally wouldn't do in a big city late at night, same rules apply. You won't hear gunshots or get accosted as soon as you get out of your car, and generally even the bums are nice. i would advise against street parking, that can be iffy. but if you park in a paid closed lot or structure your car will be fine. I've gone to countless shows in Detroit in all areas and never once had a problem. (knock wood) But be smart, it's not Boca Raton, it's Detroit. Respect it and it will respect you back. Unless you're a pretty white girl, then it's rape central. @stevetangent- your avatar pic is awesome. i hope they save the sign and leave it where it is.
  11. Man On The Moon is the best drama he's been in. as for the rest, in order... Dumb And Dumber - "Harry... I took care of it!" Ace Ventura 1 - "Your gun is digging into my hip." Cable Guy - "No way. I'm on Steven's team." Liar Liar - "Weight, 105. Yeah, in your bra." Ace Ventura 2 - "Excuse me, you balls are showing. Bumblebee tuna!" The Mask - "Hold me closer, Ed, it's getting dark. [cough, cough] Tell Auntie Em to let Old Yeller out. [cough cough] Tell Tiny Tim I won't be coming home this Christmas [cough, cough] Tell Scarlett I do give a damn. [fart] Pardon me." Bruce Almighty - "I'm Bruce Nolan for Eyewitness News. Back to you, FUCKERS!"
  12. Don't know if anyone has posted this but it looks like Rega is putting out a new turnatable to take the place of the P1 called the RP1. more info here: http://www.rega.co.uk/html/RP1.htm needledoctor.com has it listed, but as 'coming soon' with a pricetag of $445. A bit more expensive than the P1, but looks like you're paying for the upgrade in quality. http://www.needledoctor.com/Online-Store/Rega-Turntables Maybe this will mean the price of the P1 will fall a bit as dealers liquidate stock...
  13. going to fucking seattle to see my fucking family. my NYE is ruined, and it's only nov. 2 *sad panda*
