kyle Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 yeah dudes I was shocked when I saw the price, I had waited in line for a little bit and my jaw dropped when i saw it, oh wellyo and kyle my cell phone died just as you were calling me and I didnt ahve it written down, we ended up driving back home anyway because we spent so much fuckin money at the show we were able to split a cab 3 ways and it saved us money. good meeting you dude if yer ever in s cal hit me up.

kyle Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 ps lugging a record around the airport is kind of a pain in the ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibby6385 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 In this room right when you walk in, and the metro is a pretty big venue. Clusterfuck waiting in line, everyone at the metro is a fucking dick to. Took my friend 30 minutes at the Lawrence Arms/American steel show in october to get a shirt.

ericheartsu Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 im betting the merch is so much because they are playing bigger venues, and the venues are taking merch percentages. makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 I think they're tryng to discourage flipping it on ebay. screen printed covers aren't that expensive. besides its worth when you think that its a limited record and the regular press probably won't be that limited. plus if you were at one of the shows its really special.

eddieruckus Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 when I asked the merch person if I could get 4 copies she said " look me directly in the eye and promise me you arent putting these on ebay", I think thats why they jacked up the price, they know what these are gonna go for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinylme Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 If anyone wants to pick me up one, I will buy your copy for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I really debating having someone pick me up one. I'm listening to it now and am actually really digging it. I've never been really into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 ps lugging a record around the airport is kind of a pain in the ass I know the feeling. When I traveled to Boston for the ISIS shows, I picked up a bunch at the show and some others at Newbury Comics...I was guarding them with my life at the airport.

eddieruckus Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 me and my friends ended up getting a big somewhere and took turns holding it, about 8 records and 3 shirts, by the time HWM came on I was so freakin boozed I had to watch from upstairs to avoid me falling on people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ps Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Maybe they'll have leftovers like the assholeparade, glass and ashes, and the tim version records and sell them on the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 That would be nice. There's like 500 of them right? I would assume they won't sell all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monk0nuggets Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I'm sure we'll be one of the first places to find out if they do end up in the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperinactive Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 i HIGHLY doubt there will be any leftovers. The whole merch table was crowded the whole show last night and I saw TONS of people walking around with it. They probably sold AT LEAST 200 last night, probably more.

patrick Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 That is around the number I guess at. Even if only 120 were sold at the 4 shows, that is less than 50 left, and I think they blew 120 out of the water last night. I don't think they will have any for the Jersey shows.....
