Haha. Oh no. :(

Do you have a used shop in town? Even when I was unemployed, I would still pick up something every now and then if it was under $10 or something.

Also helps that I acquired 12 for free a few nights ago from a friend.

Still, I shudder to think of what I've spent this year on vinyls.

Yeah there's a good second hand record shop in town and also some quite decent first hand places, I have to go in to the city for most of them though. It's only about a 30 minute train ride if I get the express but I don't seem to go in to the city much these days.

Pride of my record collection is the Trio Of Doom record :).

I had to look that up, haha. Nice, man.

I don't really have anything "prized." Most of my stuff is a motley of different things. I recently got an old pressing (not sure if original or not) of Pink Floyd's Dark Side, though, which is killer. I've got a couple of Beatles albums too, that are in decent shape (good enough to listen to/no skips).

Haha I don't think it's like, worth anything in terms of being prized it's just my favourite.

It doesn't have a huge amount of competition I've only got like, a half dozen records I've bought and some I got from my Dad's old boxes.

I want Wayne Shorter's [i]Mahjong[/i] on vinyl I would adore that. I'd like maybe Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers'[i]Ugetsu[/i] too. There's a lot of jazz ones I'd like when I have the rubes.

I'm trying to get some more jazz into my collection. Especially during winter, I listen to a lot more jazz.

A lot of my stuff right now is more instrumental (post-rock), folky/singer-songwriter, or just flat-out "rock" (of some form or another).

I sure as **** wouldn't pass up having some Led Zep or The Who on vinyl.

Yeah, seriously. I've been keeping my eye open for some Zepp for a while now, but I figure it'll prolly cost me an arm and a leg if I find any, anyway.

Indeed it's a shame.

Haha, awesome Mingus quote about his tune "My Jelly Roll Soul".

"It had nothing to do with Jelly Roll's music. I heard he was a pimp so I decided to relate myself to him - like I had a 'Jellyroll Soul' too."

wut?

I've got a Mingus album (Mingus Ah Um), but I haven't listened to it extensively.

Just a quote of his about a tune. Jelly Roll Morton was a pianist.

Mingus is brutal genius.

I see, I see.

I'll give the album a proper listen someday.

It's a nice album. He's got a lot of music out there it's pretty scary how much he wrote really.

Is there a specific practice routine people use for jumping and running around while playing? Sheisse - some people are crazy.

Good news: I may have found the 4-space rack that will house my amp and then I can return my SamAsh purchase, try to get my coupon bac, and buy the shallow rack for my effects from them.

I'll end up saving $80 this way. Sweet!

My room mate has Led Zeppelin I on vinyl. Never actually listened to it, but he's got it anyway.

Actually, Ben, if you came here I could take you to the really good record store two blocks away from me.
You know, the one where I got a new Nocturama vinyl.

Nocturama?



My dad was showing me his record collection last night. All LZ, all Journey (including some rare japan-only release), and a bunch of other cool things that will probably be worth quite a bit in the next 30 years.

I'm really proud of this EP. I can't wait until it's totally done so I can put it up for listening and download.

I can tell you that it doesn't sound like Collapse... same line-up, though.

Ugh, Nocturama is one of my least favorite Nick Cave albums. Has a few good songs, but it's just so mediocre.

That said, I am definitely going to hit up a record shop with you next time.

Dosh - Wolves and Wishes

Showed up today. Still on the A Side, but it's sounding excellent.[/quote]
Do want.

Also, that link to the Staind rig... The guy who posted it is ripping it apart, but I'm sure it's all set up like that for a reason. And I don't think he understands the concept of drop tuning for heavy music.

How many EPs is one band allowed to put out? Haven't all of your releases thus far been EPs?

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;17585903]How many EPs is one band allowed to put out? Haven't all of your releases thus far been EPs?[/QUOTE]

Hmm?

Everything we've put out has been at least 10 songs and 30-40+ minutes of music. Those are full albums to me.

What's an EP to you?

Depending on running time, I say 3-7-8ish songs.

It's definitely not my favourite, but I think the 15 minutes of Babe, I'm On Fire still makes it kick a lot of ***.

Not getting enough attention during childhood probably.

I LOL'd at this.

It's funny because it's true.

I thought you called all of your releases EPs. My mistake, sir.

Anybody else think that the Traben Chaos basses look pretty sweet?

Meh. I'd never buy one based on looks, however I don't think it's terribly ugly.
