Jesus Of Suburbia Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So it looks like SRC is doing a limited pink vinyl run for breast cancer awareness month in October so if anyone is interested in these artists you should buy them as a portion of proceeds from these vinyl sales go to Keep a Breast Foundation as well as Gilda's Club NYC on behalf of RED Distribution. Breast cancer effects many women and men so this is pretty cool to see SRC doing something like this for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Here are the releases... (All titles have 500 copies each) Against Me! - Transgender Dysphoria Blues LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Against-Me%21-%252d-Transgender-Dysphoria-Blues-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Angels & Airwaves - Love Parts 1 and 2 4xLP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Angels-and-Airwaves-%252d-Love-Part-I-%26-II-4XLP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Blink-182 - Take Off Your Pants and Jacket LP & 3x7" http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Blink-182-%252d-Take-Off-Your-Pants-and-Jacket-LP-%26-3x7%22-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Courtney Barnett - The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Courtney-Barnett-%252d-The-Double-EP%3A-A-Sea-Of-Split-Peas-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html In This Moment - Blood LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/In-This-Moment-%252d-Blood-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Jason Isbell - Southeastern LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Jason-Isbell-%252d-Southeastern-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Kellie Pickler - The Woman I Am LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Kellie-Pickler-%252d-The-Woman-I-Am-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Lucius - Wildewoman LP http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Lucius-%252d-Wildewoman-LP-%28Limited-Pink-Vinyl%29.html Me First And The Gimme Gimmes - Are We Not Men?

Jesus Of Suburbia Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 Already a thread for this Dammit, I missed it then. My bad... I searched but obviously I was looking too quickly through the boards EDIT: Actually that thread was for Insound and not SRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Also donating a $1 per record is pretty cheap This is why I never fall for those "pink for breast cancer awareness" items. It's just a marketing ploy for the company to make $ and only donate a minimal amount. verb1999 and Duff 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickcampbell26 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Cheap ass move on src's part. Still wouldn't mind a copy of TDB on pink though... Duff and verb1999 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Are these just the ones insound or whoever didn't sell, or an entirely new pressing of each? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Are these just the ones insound or whoever didn't sell, or an entirely new pressing of each? I'm not sure, but I would say Angels & Airwaves and Blink 182 TOYPAJ are at least 2 of the SRC exclusives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xadamhudsonx Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Except SRC is donating $5, not much more though. Only on the two records that cost $50 a piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deleted Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'm always against donating at store checkouts and things like this for various causes. Reason being... The bit extra that you pay for the record becomes a TAX WRITE-OFF for the company... even though technically YOU donated. When this is done, it's a bit scammy, IMO. dreamover and verb1999 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Only on the two records that cost $50 a piece. Yeah, I just noticed this, but it does look like a total of $3 donations for the others though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Of Suburbia Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 I mean if you add it all up it's still a pretty good amount of money raised. Yeah it could be more but it's better than nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgato48 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Sadly people that cry about his much src is donating probably wouldn't donate either way or would donate to Susan g komen.

Shitty Rambo Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Sadly people that cry about his much src is donating probably wouldn't donate either way You've got a point. Nobody even has to dump ice water on themselves. The general consensus of this thread is basically: everything is terrible and everyone is the worst. Fine, but a good friend of mine who lost her mother to breast cancer told me that even though breast cancer research only gets a small percentage of the donations made, it's still pretty shitty to not donate at all, or worse try and influence others not to donate in any aspect. If people want to do backdoor budget research and refuse to support this then don't, but whistle blowing against charity organizations is tasteless and immature, regardless of how you feel about a goddamn internet record store.

I agree with the general idea of most of this. But I don't think there is anything wrong with letting people know where their money is going and what percentage of that money is actually being used for research. If someone is looking to donate to breast cancer research, and they're thinking of going with someplace like Susan G. Kommen, but they find out that most of that money won't end up where the want; they now have the chance to donate to a charity who will use more of their donation appropriately. I don't think we should influence people not to donate at all, but I think people should be educated about where their money is actually going.

When I posted I was expecting people to be like "wow that's a great idea from SRC and good for them to help raise money for breast cancer research" so the way everyone has been acting was a little shocking. My step-mom was diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2011 and today she is cancer free. So I was more than happy to spend money on that Angels & Airwaves record in which $5 goes towards research.
