Zick Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Wavelets is still a band! Let the record show that I am nearly never the one to set dates. I am the king of "We believe/think" and "Tentatively." I thought that was RJ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearchuck Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I thought that was RJ? MTS wanted to sign Dikembe. RJ called the band and was a super cool dude ... but then Tiny Engines stepped in and waved some cash in front of their faces and the rest is history.

brandon260 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 "We were thinking about doing pre-orders next week, but because turnaround times at Rainbo have been so long lately, I think we're going to push it back to the week of July 2nd. Of course, we reserve the right to arbitrarily change our mind at a moment's notice." On this same page. dantheriver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtw88 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 New song streaming on bandcamp. If you heard the demo version when the album was almost finished in October, listen to this one. It's way better. http://tinyengines.bandcamp.com/album/broad-shoulders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 I kinda hope this album doesn't get You-Blew-It!'d and kids buy up multiple copies of the most limited variant "just in case". I'm actually gunning for the coolest color with this album. I've been looking forward to it for quite sometime now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearchuck Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I love when I get You-Blew-It!'d. Take that however you'd like. Honestly, we normally don't really get many people buying multiple copies of the rarest variant ... although it certainly happens. We were actually talking about this not too long ago and I think we'll probably invoke a 2 per customer limit for this pre-order. Also, Rainbo will no longer press less than 100 of any one color, so I'm pretty sure that the breakdown for Dikembe is 100, 150 and 250.

Shitty Rambo Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 I say you 1-per the first 100! I don't believe people that say "I'm getting an extra for a friend." It's 2012, your friend needs to get his shit together! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gutzonborglum Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I say you 1-per the first 100! I don't believe people that say "I'm getting an extra for a friend." It's 2012, your friend needs to get his shit together! With albums I really, really enjoy, I'll usually try to get two copies. One to play, and one to keep. For whatever reason, I keep thinking of the day when I'm going to have to start selling my collection for bills/mortgage/food, and this way, I can still hold on to a copy of the albums I love. Some sort of fucked up record insurance, if you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 2012, your friend needs to get his shit together! Sometimes it's legit. I work in front of a computer all day so I'm able to help out a couple of my friends that aren't. Not everyone has internet access 24/7. Plus you also save on shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 2012, your friend needs to get his shit together! not gonna lie. i buy 2 copies of stuff all the time if i really like something. one personal copy an one to save to give to someone who might enjoy it later. coincidentally, i'm actually wearing my DIKEMBE shirt as i write this.

bearchuck Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I think that the Dikembe record will do very well, but I would be shocked if we had more than 10 - 15 people buying multiple copies of the most rare color. I could be wrong though; it has happened before. At the end of the day, we try our best to make sure that everyone gets what they want, but ultimately our main job is to make sure that we keep the record in print for fans to enjoy, regardless of color variant. Personally, I don't really care all that much about getting the most limited color. Sure, I'll pick it up if it's available, but I really just want records to listen to and enjoy for myself. The rarest variant might have value on the open market, but if I love the record and never plan on selling it, there's really no value to it at all ... except whatever value I give to it on a personal level. If that's the case, color doesn't matter. Unless I have some weird disease where I shart in my pants every time I see the color red. In that case, I definitely don't want red.
