adamlikesmusic Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Night Birds 7" is rad. I need to resubscribe, as these two singles were the last on my subscription. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanargyle Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Night Birds is actually Joe Erg...Black Wine is Jeff Erg. And Mikey is in basically every other touring band out there. But yeah, the AOTU Series has been such a solid series. I'm only missing 1 out of the 48! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 The Besties weren't really my thing, but that Night Birds 7" is incredible. If folks haven't heard the Night Birds demo from last year, it's fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankmurphy Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Just got these today and I'm really digging the Besties singles. It's fun music for boring people like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanargyle Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Did anyone else notice that the singles aren't numbered anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Did anyone else notice that the singles aren't numbered anymore? Is it just these two? All my previous ones were. I wonder if they started pressing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrc Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 thats kinda lame, but i understand numbering all those would be time consuming and cumbersome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmythescumbag Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Great series...I have been snagging the box sets as availability and money allow. I have years 3 and 4, and hope to be able to get the 1st two and any future sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtz Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Yeah, I've been buying the box sets too. I hope the Year 5 set comes out soon. The Night Birds 7" is the last one for year 5, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjustinxschwierx Posted April 6, 2010 Author Share Posted April 6, 2010 ok cool, thanks for the Erg connection clarification. I'll have to check out that other Night Birds 7"...since I wasn't much of an Ergs fan I haven't kept close watch on where those guys have gone in the meantime. yeah, I'm sure with Alex touring so much he just doesn't have time to number 350 covers x 2 or 3 7"s at a time anymore, so no fault on him for not number these anymore...not the end of the world, still an awesome series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenuthouse Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 This is the best way to spend money on records. I was iffy when I first joined, but the last few years have loaded me up with great music and introduced me to SO many bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrc Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Im curious to see those... i thought i read somewhere they were being made out of candy boxes or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtz Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 It's the same type of box that years 3 & 4 were in. The description called those "candy" boxes too. Pre-ordered the Year 5 box a few days ago. Can't wait to get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
