alangrey Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 i called and a guy just said "hello" and i asked if this was the red scare warehouse, he said "no" and laughed. i hung up. don't think it's the police department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggs1441 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I have a feeling that this is actually them. After I said Wrong Number I heard someone in the back chuckle. I just read over the email again and it says you gotta say it first thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryq Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 not to mention if you google the phone number for a police department, a police department usually comes up as one of the top few hits considering the email says to talk crap about the yankees, any idea who the Menzingers would prefer you talk about instead?

lifebystereo Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I think I'd rather just pay for it and support the band than deal with the awkwardness of the phone call, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genuma Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 so no one has called and actually said the line? i'm thinking about trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggs1441 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 so no one has called and actually said the line? i'm thinking about trying it. I called a bunch of times. Once I just heard talking in the Background and said it and nothing happened. Then I got the Police Emergency thing and hung up. Then all the other times it couldn't be found.

exitenglish1208 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 also, it says that if you say it wrong the next email will be considered but there's no way of knowing which email corresponds to which phone call. it's almost certainly fake. kind of a douche move but meh, i guess so is all the piracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I called, and was all prepared for the secret message, but I just got an automated voice saying the voice mail box hasn't been set up yet... I might try later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ral Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Looks like they were trying to play a joke on Toby and he returned the favor by giving out someone in the band's phone number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlrose Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Ah. Well, the number I posted was the drummers. He has a thing about giving it out (even posted it in a punknews story). Figured it was the obvious choice. Wonder who owns that number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fartcat Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I like to complain about getting free shit because I have to do things that are both good natured and fun. If your going to insult me at least make it legible. I'm not pissed that I don't get one. When it comes out I will happily buy one. It was just lame to get peoples hopes up. They haven't released any information about when this is coming out, so this was kind of a tease for fans. I'm sorry I think getting peoples hopes up about one of the best releases this year is a dick move. Call me crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was about giving us (or at least me) something to do at an otherwise boring day at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
