If anyone is going to the Hammerstein show, I'll be in the front pretending I actually still have the energy for it while simultaneously trying to prevent the crowd from crushing my vinyl, cassette, and wife (in that order). Maybe you can come help me defend the vinyl's honor.

Who's gonna be the one to tell J that his post belongs here: http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/104644-what-im-selling-on-ebay-thread-v25/

I'm still pulling to see Untitled live. Youth is still great, but I put Young States > Youth anyday. Seeing them play anything pre-Young States probably won't happen even though I was lucky enough to see them play Fremont a year or two ago.

I blame this on hotel books. DAMMIT HOTEL BOOKS.

Every band that gets compared to mewithoutYou does nothing for me except make me want to jump head first off a building. It always sounds like the Mr. Brainwash to mwY's Banksy. Hotel Books included, listening right now and this straight up suuuuuuuuuuuucks

It's much cooler than the /100!

See what rewards you get by having a little patience?
Just wait until RJ starts sending out those TOYPAJ orders next year..

Does your dick work?

I dont think you guys understand what a white whale really is.  Just becuase its pricey does not make it a white whale, it just means its beyond your budget.  
 
A white whale should be something that you cannot get your hands on regardless of money.  My white whale for years was Big Choice by Face to Face, which was pressed for promotional use only.  I had cash in hand and still had to wait several years before I found a copy for sale.

They also got to 96 on the billboard 200.  That's nuts.  

The cure for pain is in the pain.

I hope I remember about this tomorrow. I guess I will have to give my students something to do while I buy a record!

All you need.

Listen to An Ode to the Nite Ratz Club.  Great fucking song.

Unrelated, but I feel like (most) Coheed fans are the absolute worst. Even when I was all about the band in high-school, I didn't take it to the obsessive level that the majority of the crowd took it. Waiting in line was pretty grueling; I got to listen to a group of nerds attempt to 1-up each other on the Amory Wars plot line, and also some pretentious fans insist Claudio is an idiot for using a screwdriver on his guitar in later recordings. ("It's such a nice guitar, and I'm just like... 'What are you DOING man?!' Like if you're going to do that, you don't even deserve to have it.") And of course there was bragging of band signatures, owning original copies of older albums – the usual stuff. Far be it from me to rain on anyone's parade or interfere with their enjoyment of the show, but I couldn't believe how many obnoxious neck-beards populate their fan base these days.
I will say that I quite enjoyed hearing one guy say "Tch, whatever. I'll just get one on eBay for cheap, son!" – in response to the tour press selling out a dozen spots before him in line.

Yeah man, he's so fucking good at what he does. I wish I had a fraction of that talent on guitar, I'm totally shit at it.

LOL good luck.

Just finished this today! Just missing tests and record releases for Orange and DMND which I'm not too determined on getting. This is fine for me! 

Cool, we should meet up or say hi or something.

Got mine yesterday, EP is phenomenal. These guys get better and better with each release.

Jamey told me that they are working on one and when it's done they'll tour.

I pray for more Coasta everyday.

Fuck yeah, bumping a 4 year old thread.
