jasonskanks Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 That's fine if you sent my contact info to the band - I removed the record from ebay and I'm keeping it. As far as I'm concerned this situation is over. I got screwed, I was not bootlegging a goddamn thing, I'm out the cash I was supposed to be paid - so you should be happy! are you pissed at me? it was a joke. why should i be happy?

jasonskanks Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 thats bullshit. did he have permission in writing? if so i would have told them to fuck off and stop putting out shitty CSS albums. Do you think designers ask labels to show them their permission and contracts for a release before they decide to work with them? i would. gotta cover your own ass.

patrickemmons Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 I didn't know it was a joke - I thought you were actually being a dick - sorry! Rob from Midtown said it was ok to have it up so I've relisted it back on eBay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonskanks Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 did you happen to mention to have him tell Gabe to stop that shit known as cobra starship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Haha - I'll have to mention that. I'll be honest and say I was slightly into them when they first came about but after seeing them live with Head Automatica in Chicago they just flat out fucking sucked and then their other albums came out and it all went down from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmango Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 to be honest you should have been paid for the job you did. Not compensated for it by getting a test press. The label jumped the gun, and this is their responsibility. Hopefully this goes for more money than you would have made doing the design work. Good luck man.

Thanks man - no one has re-bid on it yet, I'm sure some people are at work and school that bid on the original one and don't even know yet that this whole thing happened. I'm hoping to get whatever I can but I just want to make sure that whoever spends all that money gets something awesome that makes it worth it.

Duff Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 yeah as much as i love Midtown calling him out in a public thread like Rob did wasn't a classy move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonskanks Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 what are you guys talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Not sure who this guy is but we (Midtown) were never contacted about this. I just hit up Drive Thru this morning and they have no idea about anything regarding. Maybe it's a fake, a phony, be careful out there! Note to the guy ripping off bands and selling this- You don't have to call and confess, we're looking for you, we're going to find you. So you can run and tell that.

thesupervillain Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hahaha, at least he dropped an Antoine Dodson reference in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
311thrice Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hmm...it sounded like someone else from the band contacted you and told you to take it down. I thought Rob came through and OK'd it. Whoops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 I took it down originally because of Rob's post - but then after talking to him he was cool with it and not a dick at all, very nice guy. That is when I reposted it. The auction is now going to stay up and whoever wins it WILL get the test press with a 100% custom screened cover!
