abovetheearth Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 My guess is rookie collectors who are amazed current bands are on vinyl and buy everything they see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinji Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 My guess is rookie collectors who are amazed current bands are on vinyl and buy everything they see. This. I'm assuming that is also how places like FYE sell vinyl, especially at such an inflated price. I can imagine people walking in, looking through records, saying "OH MY GOSH THEY STILL MAKE THESE?!" and then finding current albums and saying "Oh wow, I MUST have this! $50 seems totally reasonable."

FangsAnalSatan Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 while true, i would much prefer ross press shit like this (and 99% of the other stuff he's done) than press any good records. Don't worry, from the looks of it, The Fall of Troy's Doppelganger is in it's 3rd repress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agaetisbyrjun Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 My guess is rookie collectors who are amazed current bands are on vinyl and buy everything they see. Looking at the profiles of the people on instagram who are commenting about buying these, this is exactly right. Five years from now these kids will have given up on vinyl and will be selling these off for a couple bucks (if not outright giving them away) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 That lightning bolt is 100% intentional so he could market them as Doug merch without having to pay Nickelodeon. He further insured this by putting the lightning bolt on the exclusive /100 color. In fact, the other shirt is a knock off too. The Beets tour was '96 in the show and here's what that shirt was ripped from: As you can see, most of the places are the same and even the "joke" isn't botched.

Shelby Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 lol he stole the front too. He's literally running one of those gas stations where you used to be able to get FUBO and Sean Jean "designer" clothes except it's not cheap.

Sad Heart Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 And as usual, disappointed. Those "Beets" tracks are "tribute songs". Just call it a fucking cover, cause it's a fucking cover. I was already annoyed it's $9 for a 7" but those Beets songs are so awesome that I said fuck it. Then I see the word "tribute". Fuck. What a kick to my childhood's dick. I was particularly stoked for this because I grew up where the town Doug lives in is based on. So this was a cool little childhood nostalgia thing for me. Now it's ruined but bootlegs and shitty "tribute" songs. Ugh. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think our best bet is if someone calls them and explains that someone licensing their music is also making counterfeit merchandise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trolling some half-ass "record label" across social media sites isn't in my job description. Constantly posting on a vinyl forum definitely is, though, for the record. (Hello IT!)

BuzzersonKillwell Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Ordering a Doug 7" and being disappointed with the content, regardless of what it is, doesn't quite compute for me. I got no problem with nostalgia driven impulse buys, I've made a few myself, but let's not pretend what is on the 7" matters that much. They might as well be blank, no one is going to listen to them.
