jhulud Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 OK. I rarely ask for any favors on VC but this is a biggie. It's no secret that I am a big Melvins fan. So it seems The Melvins are playing at playing at TMR on 5/30 and the performance will be recorded direct-to-acetate and anyone attending w/ ticket will get a voucher for a dual color version of the live album. Regular versions of the album will be on on black. So here's my plea and offer. Is anyone able to go, does usually go to, to TMR and willing and able to hook me up? I will reimburse you for not only the dual color version of the live album but even your ticket to the show! Anyone, please get at me on this. Here is the link for tix for the show: http://thirdmanstore...ird-man-records I feel silly pleading like this, but I fuckin' love The Melvins. And I'd like to think I'm a good dude. I think.

nancy_raygun Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 This sounds awesome! I wish I lived anywhere near this show so I could help you out. Unfortunately. the only times the Melvins have ever played my area it's been Melvins "Lite" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idreamofpunk Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I would do it if I could, man. That'll be a fucking killer show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Well. The show came and went. I reached out to a few people but didn't hear anything back. Kinda bummed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzersonKillwell Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Sorry buddy. Have you had luck in the past on VC? Curious because I sure as shit haven't. At least in terms of getting someone to pick something up. Don't want to discredit all the good folks who sell at reasonable prices in the Sale thread.

jhulud Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 This is the first time in my years on VC that no one came through. But I don't blame anyone. The Melvins fanbase here is somewhat minimal plus no one who lives near TMR who would've gone to that show. If and when the actual live dual-color LP comes out, it will obviously be another crapshoot to get one in mail order or if they sell it at TMR, asking someone to pick one up for me.

dreamover Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 value of black and blues have been coming down quite a bit, plus no one will have them in hand for a long time. i still don't have my shins record from october. if i had gone and got an extra, i would've waited until i had it in hand to help anyone out. that's a long time to wait.

dreamover Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 i know it's not a black and blue but they have the show poster for sale online and it's really rad. they usually don't last long online. http://thirdmanstore.com/featured/the-melvins-live-at-third-man-records-poster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not sell the black & blues in store and they are not in random orders either. If you didn't pre-order one then you'll have to rely on the 2nd hand market or hope some end up in the next refresh-a-thon they do for left over stock.

I tried to help, but my proxies were flaky. Or at least the one who said he'd be free that night. I had three people say they had to work that night or had other commitments. =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
