Hey now, Mr. Ham, will there be a weirdo-mega-super-deluxe-promo deal this time around? Just curious.

Sounds hot. I'd be way down for this. I've a test of the Can't Stand LP and the 1st 7". Would love to continue the tradition.

I used my #1 choice and vote for the Coop label thing on this release. In fact it's why I signed up for the Coop in the first place. I'm just glad to finally be able to own the bastard on vinyl. Love this album and have been waiting for years to get it. Happy Go Licky was such a side project/experiment that came and went, it's hard to really judge it. It just...was. I'd certainly pick up a repress though.

EXCELLENT! Sorry you turned into a Vampire.

Thanks. The delay and 2 color thing is about what I figured. I suppose I'm hoping for a Fat dude to pop in here with some definites.

Anyone out there have any info regarding this release on vinyl? Like when it'll hit the streets, variations, etc.?

DuPont Olssons is toast. No loss. They had like 12 records there anyways. Second the Smash suggestion. It's really the only punk rocky one in the area. Pretty good about prices too. Crooked Beat can be a bit nuts with pricing sometimes. Beware. If you're up for a trip, Joe's Record Paradise in Rockville (North of the city) is huge. Not so punk-centric, but everything else is there in spades.

The tattered box my pile of records showed up in was pretty bashed to hell as well. You could see inside of the package through the wear and tear on the sides. And it even looked retaped at some point. But, through the miracles of physics, the sweet vinyl within lived to tell the tale. A mere bent corner or two on the jackets, but that's it. Thanks for the wide variety of rarer colors! I need to check out that photo again later to place a few of them. Maybe the postal service dudes don't like the skull stamp? Because skulls hate freedom.

Color: Hooray for no purple mess. I like what No Idea does and understand how they can put out releases fer cheap, but, yeah... purple-grey mess gets old. (and hard to keep track of in my aging mind) On the press quality: I lack the audiophile type equipment to really pick up any noticeable differences between the presses. (I did finally pick a mixer though) The pink one sounded just fine to me when it went round.

Let the shipping begin! Stoked to see what arrives. The pink press from Interpunk was real nice - and these look equally tasty.

Yer killin' me. Guess I'll be watching eBay for another week. And possibly supporting your Fest trip. Thanks for putting up the test press as well as the pressing info on the latest short press. Hopefully I'll score a nice selection of colors when you get around to divvying them up on shipping day... And what's the deal with the Interpunk puke green thing? Just their wording for "Dark Green Mix"?

Sorry about your internet to CEO ratio, I can understand that situation. That can definitely put a damper on your internet fun. I'll quit your case. If you're looking for some revenge of sorts and you have most of the Terminal Boredom 7" press colors, perhaps you could take some of my money/records in trade? PM me with what you have and what you'd want in cash or trade. If you're up, that is.

Purple? Purple would be part of the recent second pressing on "mystery colors" I'm guessing? The recent pressing that is finished, but missing covers or something? I pre-ordered a pile of those, but the 1234Go dude hasn't posted much about it lately. Probably because he knows about as much as we do due to poor communication from the printers. The Green one is a tour only color, but was available in 1234Go store about a week ago, not sure about now though. Since this band involves The Briefs expect some ridiculous vinyl pressings to chase after. It's how they roll. Still, not as crazy as HWM or AM! collections. Gah.

I work on web design all day, so I guess I've an unfair advantage. And yes, perhaps I can lose sight of what it's like for someone who doesn't have such a nicety literally at their fingertips. But - if you work someplace that won't let you spend 1 lousy minute on eBay at the appropriate time, but allows you to make multiple posts throughout the day on these boards, then perhaps it's time to re-evaluate your precious internet time usage at said job. I've never owned a test press of this album, until today.

I'm not even sure what bidding "like a man" means. If bidding smartly means that I'm not a man, then yes, I have a vagina. I put an exploratory bid in with 2 mins to go, then again at 40 seconds or so. (There were no more bids by anyone else after this point) Then I slammed in a big fat number for safety sake at about 8 seconds or so. There was plenty of time (40 seconds-ish) to shoot back. Check the bid history son, I been there the whole damn auction.
