dante3000 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 haha for the new dudes this is a thread from last year when these first went up. Fuck it's insane that they only had 600 and they lasted for so long and the last batch sold 1,500 in like two days. Oh man the good ol days.

martyk36 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 when I saw the first post I thought it was a joke thread, PS posted "this band grows on you" that is crazy, so much can happen in a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadetapplesauce Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 this thread is right from when the board started. wish i paid attention to stuff like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keevhren Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 when I saw the first post I thought it was a joke thread, PS posted "this band grows on you" that is crazy, so much can happen in a year. definitely. Kinda funny how everyone is in love with the insert paper... and to then think the follow up drama with the paper for Senor and the Queen. Gaslight love their paper product.

minty Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I bet when this thread was posted, 90% of the people that now obsess about Gaslight didn't have a clue who they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I bet when this thread was posted, 90% of the people that now obsess about Gaslight didn't have a clue who they were. I ordered them after checking out their myspace. Before that, I had never heard of them. Had you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keevhren Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 we played with them while on tour last summer in June, by the time we had gotten home, all of the black copies were sold out, I was kinda pissed, but figured they wouldn't blow up like they did so quickly. haha for the new dudes this is a thread from last year when these first went up.

dante3000 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I actually ordered the whole shebang at once (CD LP etc.) I waited on the CD until the LP was posted. I had followed them since Justin posted about them in the new music round up on punknews. Never thought they'd be so popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtz Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 haha for the new dudes this is a thread from last year when these first went up. Fuck it's insane that they only had 600 and they lasted for so long and the last batch sold 1,500 in like two days. I think I bought my red/white splatter copy of Sink or Swim in December. So the first 600 lasted at least 6 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfedaykinx Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 i got my white/red at the vintage vinyl in-store they played right as the pressing was released. funny, i was thinking of picking up more than one for some reason. totally should have.

jawbroken Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 yeah, i still kick myself for not picking up a red/white when i saw them that last october Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's funny that in the year since this thread started I have sold or traded both my black and red/white copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante3000 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Haha. I was like,"Man 100 is real low. I should buy another copy...NAH, I already own a ton of vinyl for unpopular bands, why add to it". I'm awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I found out about them from iTunes, the suggestions part the site has. Ordered it there then on a whim got the splatter LP for Virgil. Ended up trading a Ben Weasel test for the copy on black. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up trading a Ben Weasel test for the copy on black. Good times. Good times indeed. However, I believe I also gave you $25 for the BW test in addition to the black Gaslight Anthem LP. This was before the black copies of this record started going for insane prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezfools Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I heard them on a local college radio station(haven't heard them get played in ages though). Wrote some lyrics on the wall in the garage, searched google and figured out the band. Downloaded the album, liked it and ordered the LP from no idea the next morning and got my red/white splatter a week or so later. Bummed though because I had to sell it 3 or 4 months later to pay some bills along with a bunch of other goodies. But then got it back in a trade for a sealed falcon, siked!

cj Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yeah, I went with the black also, but shipping was the same for both. I sucked it up and bought both. It might be worth it one day. this is the understatement of the century good call getting both though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
