Guest Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 No one was moving around. God forbid people don't move. That must mean they hate the band, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Still hesitant about getting this because the HT customer service keeps refusing my requests to place the vinyl outside the jacket before shipping. I have had a few records arrive with seam splits from them because of this. Argh. These come shrink wrapped, they arent going to open them up and take them out of the jacket before they ship a record. Labels can do this a lot of times if they are shipping out records in poly bags but they dont even have poly bags laying around where they are shipping these from. I dont think you would be able to get a place like Amazon or Best Buy to ship something outside of the jacket either. robotfactory 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the record outside the sleeve. I think best buy received it that way though. Still caught me off guard. Regardless I agree with you.

Yea I believe the copies of Alcoa that HT got came in poly bags as well, Bridge 9 shipped them that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verb1999 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 God forbid people don't move. That must mean they hate the band, right? I feel inclined to say there was either a crowd of zombies, modernized humans or maybe there was some good pot smoke floating through the vents. Blink might not be the wildest, but they're an energetic pop punk band that I know at least SOMEONE in that crowd wanted to move to. Jump, mosh, circle pit, crowd surf, some form of movement. I know someone did... I don't think they all hate the band, but I will call out the pussification of kids today. Whether it's too cool, too shy, too scared to stand out, whatever the case. Blink 1-80-fuckin-2 is on stage live in front of you. MOVE. They're lucky I wasn't there, I'd have been having a ball while everyone staring going "What is he doing, OMG look at that guy. I'm going to twitter this, "guy at Blink 182 makes attempt to interact with band and crowd and have fun." Maybe someone else would have joined in, you never know. Not to say a ticket of attendance obligates participation, surely it doesn't & the ol pit is not for everyone. But I know at least a fair portion of the attendees want to. When they're not on Ritalin anyways. Berrydude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there too slamster17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psus2h Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yes it was but there will still pockets of people jumping around and dancing. Ovation Hall had great sound though. What did you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there too Curve ball. I guess that would explain it, however that's something I would never picture at a Blink show. General floor seating, what gives? I protest.

travis Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Not many of the splatter copies left online. A few hundred left in stores but this is going pretty quickly so make sure you get one before they are gone if you still want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckTape Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Short question: The back of my copy says: "2001 Geffen Records. 2010 Universal Music Enterprises." It also has the same catalogue number & same barcode as the Tri-colored version. Shouldn't it be: 2001 / 2013 ???What does your back say? Thanks in advance!

Apparently they had a bunch of jackets left over from the first time I got this pressed a few years back so we just used those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the quick information. Do copies with a "new" jacket exist at the moment or will there be copies with a "new" jacket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
