Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

So after 3 weeks, VMP up and sent me the order email for replacements AND THEN reached out via email. What a wacky system they have. They also whiffed on the text in the email which listed the wrong records they were sending.

I just received a shipping notice for Grimes - Miss Anthropone. I'm shocked since the album only drops Feb 21st...

So basically, you’ll be getting four copies of the Mariah Carey album.

Yeah it says mastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling and RTI pressed. The previous pressings are also RTI, don't mention RKS or Sterling though and claim they are mastered at The Lodge. So either this is some new remastered version or someone has their info wrong.

I know which I would put my money on.

Yeah the Google can't find any indication this album is being remastered or that RKS has anything to do with it... It was last reissued in 2018 and none of the represses show as being remastered or have any connection to RKS or Sterling. I mean it's possible they remastered it this year, but I'm sceptical.

 

[Tyr]

Yeah but this version will change your life!

This gif made my day!

Love you Natalie. Don't worry, my wifi understands our complicated relationship. Come over and I will make you really mediocre food (vegan, of course).

Garden state is amazing, don’t be ashamed

Have you watched it recently though? I used to love it but it hasn't aged well.

I ask sub pop quarterly about seaweed reissues, so I’m invested at this point.

A friend knows someone at Sub Pop and bugged him around the time of Four's 25th Anniversary, and was basically told that when people who work at the label are sitting around discussing possible reissues, a band needs someone there to champion them. I'm sure it'll happen eventually but nobody on the inside cares enough yet. Maybe in time for Weak's 30th?

 

[Crabbers]

I'll PIF you a DVD player.

Haha I’m good...don’t feel like Paying international shipping either

Just make sure you put the Laserdisc in the correct side up.....

OK, side bar story about that comment. When I took my Introduction to Film Studies course in university, there were several films that we watched on Laserdisc as DVD was still in its infancy and the university had amassed a sizable film library on Laserdisc. One of the films we watched was Psycho, and the TA that ran our screening lab...PUT THE DISC IN WITH THE WRONG SIDE UP. This means that they showed THE SECOND HALF OF PSYCHO, AND THEN THE FIRST HALF!!!!!!!!

I had already seen it, and when I realized that they weren't going to fix the problem, I grabbed my friends from class (who I knew hadn't seen it) and we left and rented it to watch at home. But there were most definitely people that stayed, not knowing any better, and watched the second half before the first half. Our professor was BESIDE herself when she found out what happened.

Make sure you just slap a mailing label on them, don't bother with a box as it will just add weight and expense.

We just had a donation of about 700 dvds last month at my library. Most were still unopened. Anyone need 3 copies of American Pie?

Did I every tell you guys about the time I went for drinks with Mena Suvari?

I did? Several times?

In fact I've even re-used this exact method of joke delivery like 5 times already?

Guys I'm out of material. It took like 2.5 years but that's it, I got nothing.

Not sure if I can top that, but Tara Reid fell asleep on my shoulder on a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. She drools.
