kidamnesiac Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Merrymakers was on vinyl? Would love to see King James Version pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Parlour* Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Merrymakers was on vinyl? Would love to see King James Version pressed. Who knows? Its not listed on discogs, but then again discogs Isn't perfect..so I just got tired of looking for it. It's a shame cause that record is pretty damn solid.

nelso330 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 I've seen Merrymakers on vinyl....one was up on ebay for a long time like 5 years ago...its was one of those $300 buy it now BS I think I remember reading it was limited to promo copies only? but who knows?

chiefwahoo Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I don't think Merrymakers is on vinyl. I'd have to see it to believe it because I was actively looking for it upon release. But then again, stranger things have certainly shown up on vinyl that I would have bet my collection didn't exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeytags Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 that website's homepage hasn't been updated since 2009... are you sure this is current? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviex2shoes Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 We will find out won't we. If I don't hear anything in 40 days I'll be filing a claim. Edit: I just got an email from them saying he was on Vacation currently but will send it by the end of the week. Sounds good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agreetodisagree Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 that website's homepage hasn't been updated since 2009... are you sure this is current? That's what I thought when I found the website. Stumbled on it last week looking for the DCFC transatlanticism cassette. It's the real deal. My order shipped in a day or so and came in the mail yesterday. Even responded to my email about pressing info and availability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xadamhudsonx Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 What a great band. Got tired of trying to find merrymakers so I just got the 45 of flagpole sitta. What's on the b-side? I'm only asking because if it's Carlotta Valdez I need to track down a copy. Best song on Merrymakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Nice find! Great album, just ordered. What else does Harvey Danger have on vinyl besides this and the "Cream And Bastards Rise" 7-inch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only asking because if it's Carlotta Valdez I need to track down a copy. Best song on Merrymakers. The retail version has The Ballad Of The Tragic Hero (Pity And Fear) as the b-side. There's also a promo that is deceiving. The b-side is Private Helicopter, but it lists Carlotta Valdez as the artist for some reason. I did some looking around to find out more about the Merrymakers LP and found an old VC thread about forgotten 90s bands where someone said they picked up a copy used for $4 at FYE. So if that and nelso are to be believed, it does exist. xadamhudsonx and nelso330 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwokeinrelief Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Thanks for the heads up on this! Was literally sitting here listening to Moral Centralia when I came across this thread. One of my favorite bands (and I also would need to see Merrymakers to believe it - I've been looking for a copy of it for years and have still never actually seen any copy of it).

jrodan Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 got this already today. real nice layout and thick inner pic sleeve with lyrics. never was a huge fan of this album originally (i wanted them to keep making "where are all the merrymakers") but im enjoying this. definitely worth the super cheap price. thanks again OP for the heads up.
