scottheisel Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I got married yesterday! To celebrate, my wife(!) and I assembled a 7-inch compilation of some of our favorite bands covering some of our favorite songs, and we gave it out as a wedding favor to all of our guests. Pressing info is 220 copies on random colored vinyl, the majority of which are in the hands of our wedding guests. (Although I do still have a few leftover...) Artwork is by Marky Hladish of MidwestLove Art & Design. geezfools 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottheisel Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'm not sure how I'm going to distribute the leftovers -- selling them normally doesn't seem quite right to me. However, I am leaving for my honeymoon tomorrow morning and won't get back until 10/14, and who knows -- maybe I'll throw a free copy in with every order for a regular YCR release I receive between now and then (while supplies last). Maybe. http://youthconspiracy.bigcartel.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pushbacktosquare Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I was looking to pick up both The Forecast - Self Titled variants you have left eventually. Now seems like a convenient time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon260 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I would absolutely love a copy of this, especially after missing the other recent IIOI 4-way split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Also, remember, every order placed in the YCR webstore between now and 10/14 enters you to win a test pressing of your choice from the YCR catalog. Each record you buy is an entry. So this one's sort of a no-brainer, folks. (Maybe.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon260 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I grabbed The Forecast's record. It's the only record of theirs I haven't completely delved into, so it feels like a fitting time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditc586 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 scooped Weatherbox on black, thought that sold out a long time ago so I am pretty stoked to get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papermonsters Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Snagged that Forecast lp! I would love to have one of these 7"s because the Smoking Popes cover is probably my favorite covers of all time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robotfactory Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Been putting off grabbing that Forecast LP for a long time, this seemed like a great time to pick it up! Hope to see a 7" in my package! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subplotofcrows Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Congrats on the marriage! Those melted record cup things you posted on Twitter awhile back were a great idea, too. Best of luck and hope that honeymoon is awesome! I love IIOI, BTMI!, and The Swellers, but there's nothing in the webstore I want (except for that sold out Monoculture. :/) If there's any other way to get this from you Scott, let me know!

AlexH. Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Bought the Heks Orkest and Person L/Weatherbox 7"s, this is as good an excuse as any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pushbacktosquare Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Just picked up both Forecast variants that were available (Cherry / Suicide). Here's to doubling my chances of snagging a Forecast test press and a 4-way split! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! /3 Mello Yello /2 Orange Fanta /1 Vanilla Milkshake With A Cherry On Top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idreamofpunk Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Well, I don't have that much to spare, but I picked up the Person L/Weatherbox split 7" on green. Hopefully I'll score one of your leftover wedding favor. Congrats on gettin' hitched and may the honeymoon never end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Thank you to everyone who ordered a record from me in the past 8 hours! The response has been nutty. Please realize that getting one of these 7-inches is the farthest thing from a "sure thing," as I still have to allocate some for the bands and other friends who were unable to make the wedding. However, some orders will receive one, I just don't know how many yet. It likely won't be based on anything outside of random chance (and maybe if you ordered a Forecast LP). I hope no one feels let down if they don't get one, but the demand for this has far outweighed the supply. Keep in mind, though, that everyone who has placed an order has also been entered to win a YCR test press of your choosing, too, so that's exciting!

AlexH. Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 If you don't have some personal reasons for not doing a full run of this record, you really should just make 500 more with different art or something. GradedOnACurve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Also really regretting all the times I've talked shit about you and your magazine on this board, because now I want something that you have. scottheisel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
