Might make the drive, how is the experience, typically? Do they usually have enough to go around? Lines have been pretty long for the last two openings.

Every time I went they had plenty to go around. Sometimes they'd even have leftovers from the previous opening. It's a great experience, I recommend going if you can. Is it usually limit one item per person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think when they sent these records to be pressed they knew that there were going to be no flights from Europe to the US? Do you think GZ is pressing records at full capacity? I'm sure Fat also is working packing up records with a smaller crew to be safe. And it's NOFX. It's probably 2 dudes in a warehouse packing up 10,000 records. Any of their other bands it's probably 1,000 and takes them a few days. you were very close to being 100% correct. thank you. the one correction: It's one woman in a warehouse filling the thousands of records. she's going as fast as she can and I'm going in and helping when I can but it's gonna take time. firebird1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradedOnACurve Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) My fault on Leche Con Carne I thought I got it but I didn’t and they’re coming from Europe GZ as well.

Way better quality - particularly the lacquer cut/mastering/sound which is terrible when cut in-house by GZ. But also the cover has a higher quality than the GZ ones.

Not Takt Direct..., they are pressed by Packaged Sounds who use the same cutting lathe as TD. I agree on sound and sleeve quality.

Or are the record presses co-owned/shared by both companies? Edited October 21, 2020 by Iggy_Pilot edit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
