Yeah never used it, but find it interesting when I hear things like how Jeremy from Touche booked their first tour on those forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the actual label closed it (no idea why) but the members created their own version called Board is Life and it feels the same.....yet not. I miss the For Sale/Trade section.

I spent the better part of 10 years on there and strangely even met my now-wife from there hahaha. God damn that board was the best / worst at equal times 😂 RIP With Honor’s cash box and probably Br0phy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yes chef Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 It would so sick if there were posts that went over "The Lore" of this place.

I know someone hit him up and was like nice seats at the Avs game. How'd you afford those? And got a refund for whatever he was waiting for. This. Never forget. People like them don't deserve to be around the scene. RJ still shows up to shows in NYC. Such Gold actually shouted him out and I was so pissed, like do they have no idea how much money dude stole? Dude, this writeup was amazing. Thanks for all of that. This was definitely the place to smash refresh all day long waiting for preorders to launch. It's crazy how many of those records are worth 100s of $$s now because it was pre-vinyl explosion. Now the only POs that get posted are like WB radio bands. Find him at a Such Gold show in NYC when shows happen again. Remember shows? It was me, I sent him an email with the photo and said cool to s3 you at the game, wherz my $60 and I got it a couple days later 😂 shenanigans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethanpricington Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 @AlexH.Thanks for that! I started collecting in summer 2014 and believe I joined VC shortly thereafter, so I was completely unaware of the virgil-saga lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I joined in 2008 when VC/Suburban home was still some sort of label/webstore jobby and Virgil was still someone you would email about your order and Seabron was a person who also worked in the store. I bought a lot of my first records from that place. What a weird time... online purchases skirted taxation... so much has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
