One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/drmanhattan/dr-manhattan-goes-vinyl Not a fan of Kickstarter, but since they are friends of mine I'll post this to help them out. Me and Chris Conley from Saves The Day enjoy this album. If you want to contribute go ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviex2shoes Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I really liked this album, got to see the band play a roller skate rink in McHenry a few years ago they were pretty nuts live I enjoyed it. Oh and I pledged hopefully it gets fully funded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 I should probably mention they are playing a show! They are not "back together," but they may do some more stuff in the future. http://www.facebook.com/drmanhattanboots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
croft Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Woah, I really enjoy this album and I am definitely making a pledge. Thanks for sharing this info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 If they get to 6K they are also going to put out a new album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selfreliable Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 How many test pressings do they have? What if 50 people pledge 50 or more? They do got some good priced things on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United Pressing Plant will make as many as are pledged for. Yeah its an incentive program United has set up if bands use Kickstarter. If they get to 6K they are also going to put out a new album. I don't see the $6k happening not with this band, I felt like $3k is a little advantageous of them but we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Don't see it either. Maybe if they get 4K they will do an EP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, I just meant that United has an incentive program where if you are using Kickstarter, or Indie Go Go or Pledge Music and people pledge $50 or more they will press a free test pressing for every one of those pledges with a max of 50 free test presses.

motorbike Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 so basically they are no longer test presses, but instead records with no sleeve or label? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 So there is 45 mins left. They really exceeded expectations. I'm seeing them the 23rd. Will try to ask a few questions about the new album. They will have Dr. Manhattan/Dormlife splits available at the show that I never knew existed. The record is already being pressed.

kgry Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I'm getting dragged to this show Friday night. The GF is a big Flowers for Dorian fan. I guess half the northwest suburbs is going to the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Matt Parrish was in a band that signed to Vagrant? Who knew? I guess I'll ask him about it next time I see him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Wow. The show went great. It sold out. There was a section for 18-20 year olds, but during DMAN's second song they tried to push a pool table out of the way and join the 21+ people. As a result the show stopped for 30 mins and all 18-20 year olds were kicked out. They had the S/T record on black and white there and a split 7". Very cool. They may be recording, but the second drummer/keyboard dude is moving to california in three weeks. They may also have another show if everything works out.

steviex2shoes Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Finally got my record today, it was the Black version. Was kind of surprised to get it, and completely forgot about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yeah I have been reading on their facebook that they were starting to send them out. I think they have only played one more show since that one at the bowling alley (Hush Sound Reunion). I haven't gotten mine yet. I actually talked to the drummer last week because he just joined the same gym as me. I didn't feel like asking where my record was cuz I knew they were still packing everything up.

swisherprice Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Missed out on this, I'm pissed. Really want a copy of this record, found the split with DL though, will be ordering that tomorrow after check hits the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 My good buddies from Duck Duck Goose (Now known as Pollution People) played with these dudes a lot. I actually never really listened to them. I'll have to check out some of their stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
