Eliminator Jr. Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Had to take these two beauties home as soon as I could: Various. Whatever Nevermind /Robotic Empire /baby blue Red House Painters. 4AD Box Set /4AD /with cat The european RSD version of the box is not numbered, also no stickers including anything RSD related. According to my cat it smells fabulously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Why's it shitty? They're giving everyone that comes in their store the same opportunity to own this whether they can get in line on Thursday or not And the $$ is going to charity Whoa they're giving all the proceeds from the raffle tickets to a girls camp that helps establish motivation and self esteem AND to another organization that archives Indiana's music history and assists in keeping their musical culture relevant and up to date? Buncha assholes Didn't know this was for charity. Contrary to popular belief I don't read EVERYTHING posted on or linked from VC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFP Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 If anyone is interested, there is a Jurassic 5 7" that has been released by Get On Down to coincide with the Quality Control wood box release for RSD. It is Quality Control b/w Jurass Finish First. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFP Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Are you camping out? No, I have been pretty lucky arriving really early. I've been pretty lucky to meet some of the same people in line every year and people are usually easy going, would you say so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 While I really do dislike many aspects of RSD, this is the closest feeling I can match to the feeling I used to have the night before Christmas morning. Also sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also sex.Hahaha! Good call!As for lining up...we should all be glad they don't go the Ticketmaster route where they hand out lottery tickets so everyone in line could be first! That would drive me nuts....I enjoy lining up hours in advance and waiting...every year I am introduced to new bands and end up buying more than planned....if it wasn't for last years wait, I wouldn't know of fantomas or death grips! Those were my "frank pieces" from last year (thanks bull moose!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they didn't see me and I almost took a header into the bottom record rack... At least its not like Walmart on black Friday though hahahaha........yet!

I like to help when I can, I know my brother and I split up a few years back, he went to Monster and I went around the corner to Earshot (which is now closed) and there was this really talkative woman, I think she was there for her son, and she had a list. When we all got in to the small shop I saw one title she was looking for and grabbed it off the wall for her and handed it to her. It was the New Found Glory Mania 12" I was glad I could help her, because I felt like she was a deer in the headlights with all of the people crowded in there, haha..

AdamBGraham Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Charleston, SC, eh? I got put on Monster's Instagram once when I brought my baby daughter in in an ergo and was looking through the racks. Was Earshot the store just a couple miles away?

TFP Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I bought my Death Waltz TV theme 7"s from there. Earshot always seemed to get the random inserted variants of Death Waltz stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBGraham Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Doesn't necessarily surprise me that they went under. They were a little lackluster. Not that Monster isn't a little shady, but they're corporate shady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that Monster isn't a little shady, but they're corporate shady. Monster is an independent store, they branched off of Manifest Discs and Tapes (no longer associated). I believe Monster is one of only two (or three) stores under the same ownership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBGraham Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I just meant they looked more put together is all. I've scored some awesome stuff there. I especially like their 7" section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 there isn't much I want this year - hopefully the ETID and PBTT 7 inches and the Puig Destroyer S/T if I can find it. I look forward more to getting there early and just hanging out with like-minded vinyl fans and shooting the shit for a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
