Visitor to VC: Billy from Silverstein, a contest

[Guest Admin]

Billy from Silverstein (8-25-09) - Billverstein (or Billy from Silverstein) stopped by the office with our good friend T-bone (most know him as Dylan) who just got back from the Warped Tour. Bill hitched a ride on Dylan's bus and had a day off in Denver. There have been countless times that we have tried to have Bill visit the office, but for one reason or other, it just didn't happen. Luckily, there was no coordinating, he just stopped by, and we got to hang out for a good while. For those of you who don't know, Bill has an insane record collection. At one time or other, he had the largest Hot Water Music collection (he might still have it, but he has recently sold a handful off pieces from his collection). We talked a long while about his collection, about Victory, about pressing records, the Coop (he is a member), and about a possible future Under the Influence 7". Bill is a good dude. Thanks for stopping by.

We joked around about doing a contest involving the Bill's picture and this morning, I say why not. Here is how it will go down. Correctly identify all 5 records in Bill's hand, bonus points will be awarded to those who correctly identify the color of vinyl of each record, and further bonus point will be awarded if you can correctly identify the band t-shirt Bill is wearing. We will select 5 winners who will each get $10 gift certifcates. Winners will be picked on Friday, August 28th. Email Seabron (seabron at suburban home records dot com) to participate. Good luck!

Billy is a super nice guy. I talked to him at a Hot Water Music show earlier this year and he was really genuine. Too bad his band is awful.

Pretty sure you didn't have to spill the beans on Bon Iver. Not that it matters, it's just killing the fun for everyone else.

I wouldn't call it spilling the beans. You can read Bon IV on the cover. Type In Bon IV vinyl into google and the first site gives you a pic of the record. Can someone message me the middle one if they don't want to put it on the board. don't worry I'm not going to submit an answer.
