thisisahiijack Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 i've been trying to find a way to rip it, but to no avail thus far. been meaning to talk to cobra about the lineup, but i'm quite not sober every time i am around him. think it is him, mcshane (not doing vocals) and two other cats. this is when melin was still in truck stop love.

The glory days of Manhattan rock, haha. Talked to Bill about doing a digital release of the song "Rocket Hearts on Fire," he is wanting it to be a vinyl only release, so if this works, we get a new/old UFB song!!

Almost all of the red copies have been reserved, but there are still a few left! Pre-order now, so we can get this thing to presses asap. http://kck.st/9C1yzh rocketheartrecords.com/ufb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterrod Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I just got the email saying the project has been funded. I can understand people's beef with Kickstarter, but I for one am stoked to know I'll be getting this in the mail soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was once a time when an electric guitar was known as the devil's instrument. Either way, we are funded and a huge thank you goes out to everyone who pre-ordered a copy. We are going to be turning and burning to get this record to you asap! http://kck.st/9C1yzh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I once saw a thing on tv about that! Then there is a great company based in Seattle called "Real Change". They give homeless people newspapers to sell. Profits from the paper they sell goes directly to them in a form of a paycheck. It's a pretty cool idea! And why haven't you posted in this thread yet? http://vinylcollective.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47830 They did the exact same thing we did.

The homeless people actually work for their money. I'm not on here that much. I'm not part of the VC "in crowd" so I don't read every thread and such. I will check it out though! Awesome that your album is recouped already without even pressing it yet!, pretty impressive. Most labels/bands have to sell copies in order to recoup label expenses. If you want to? You can pay for my latest pressing if you want? It was only around 2800 bucks, or something like that for 1000 copies. I'll even cut you a deal. In return for paying for my pressing I will give you some of the copies for only 13 bucks a pop! So in return for your pledge of 2800 dollars you also get 215 (give or take)copies of the LP. That mean's I can use the addition 800 copies for pure profit. Thanks to your generous pledge. I'll even toss some exclusive stickers and a custom hologram 3d pick.

Actually when the numbers come down, we will not be fully recouped. There are fee's with Kickstarter, taxes, shipping, packaging, licensing, etc. In the meantime, you might want to move your index.php page of you site outside of the "site" folder and to your root. Redirect page is a very interesting page to first look at. Just some advice from another web designer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
