Records are shipping!

I’m sure you’re aware of the old white lincoln 7″ by now. If you aren’t, go find yourself a copy as they are shipping and finding their way onto record players everywhere.
Also shipping is the brown press of All Aboard: A Johnny Cash tribute from Vinyl Collective. I got my shipping notice today at least. Virgil posted some pictures of the vinyl, but I’m too lazy to save it and re-upload them. I’ll post some as soon as my copy arrives.

All Aboard Test Pressing Info.

So for anyone out there who was lucky enough to win a copy of the all aboard test press from anchorless records/eBay or through vinyl collective, here is the information I got from Neil. There is a good chance there won’t be any posted for awhile, so I hope you got one. I couldn’t afford one myself. Anyways, here is the info in case you grabbed one or ever come across a copy.
—————————
1st run rejected(just sounded like shit) 20 made but only 16 actually exist.
2nd run(the one that was approved) there are 15 (5 of which have the letter A on the Aside label, and 10 that dont).

97X Green Room Sessions!

It’s a way for you, the fan, to get up close and personal with your favorite bands. The 97X Green Room - another exclusive performance package brought to you by Miller Lite and 97X.

Old White Lincoln - Pictures!

Saw these posted over at the VC boards today. Looks nice, can’t wait for these to arrive! Looks like there could be some variations out there as well! Remember this is limited to 1,000 copies on white vinyl and is a UK release only. You can find them via banquet records or ebay seems to be a pretty good spot as well. Have a happy thanksgiving everyone!

All Aboard: A Johnny Cash Tribute; Test Press on eBay

Also noticed another test press is up on eBay. So if you missed out on the last one, keep an eye on this one and maybe your luck will work out in your favor or maybe you have a rich girlfriend/boyfriend, one or the other I guess! I’ll be posting some test press numbers for all you record nerds out there in case you’ve been able to pick a test press up. Also, check out anchorless records(link to the right). They have some other great bands and some cool things in the works as well as the second press of the tribute if you’ve missed out on that.

another sink or swim test pressing

You can check the link out here and big hard. Well, unless you’ve won the lottery recently, good luck! It’s almost at $300 and it’s been up for four hours. I really wish I could own this TP, but funds will probably never allow it. It’s okay, as long as I got the music on my iPod, I’m fine! Love every single song on that LP and after hearing the songs so many times, each one means something to me in one way or another. Call it emo or cheesy, just feel the lyrics hit me.

Anyways, enough about me. Bid on this record and send it to me for christmas. Sorry it’s been slow, nothing much to report and I’ve been busy as hell. Have a nice thanksgiving if you’re from the US.

The Gaslight Anthem - WFNX - Video/MP3

I originally had this uploaded as a single song, than tobi has to come along and make me look like a joke. So he has given a few options if you want to watch or listen. I’ll just list them and you can go from there….
——————
YouTube - High Lonesome/MP3
YouTube - The ‘59 Sound
Entire Show from WFNX
——————————————–
Alright, here`s the “ultimate package” for all of you to enjoy, on the show (and included in the podcast) Brian also played “Here`s looking at you, kid” but “High Lonesome” wasn`t in the podacast … so I separated the tracks and Interviews and also converted mp3s from the hq-versions of the videos … the videos are also both included as divx-versions …

1. The ´59 Sound
2. Here`s Looking At You, Kid
3. Interview
4. High Lonesome (from the video)
5. The `59 Sound (from the video)

All Aboard Test Pressing - EBAY!

So if you’re feeling lucky or maybe really rich, head on over to eBay to check out a test pressing from the recent compilation, All Aboard: A Tribute to Johnny Cash. No idea what this will end up, but would be cool for any collection. I’ll be keeping an eye on it myself, though not really rich, so guess I’ll be betting on luck for this one. No word on what these were limited to, but I’ll see what I can find out.
The brown color is still available at Vinyl Collective by the way, pick one up!

Sink or Swim demos on gold?

I hadn’t seen the No Idea exclusive for the Sink or Swim demos until this morning and I see it on ebay. These are grabbed from the guys auction. I was admit that I was expecting a completely different color, but this actually looks pretty damn good. Click the pics for bigger ones…

All Aboard: Johnny Cash Tribute - 2nd Pressing!

I had heard a little bit about this a month or so ago, but didn’t say much as things change quick and I didn’t want to spread rumors. But anyways, as the first pressing went rather quickly, a second pressing is already in the works. I hear this will be pressed on opaque brown out of 1,000. The preorder goes up tomorrow at 1pm pacific time. So yeah, if you’re going for a collection or missed out on the first pressing, so do yourself a favor and pick up a copy tomorrow. Also, don’t forget all proceeds from this tribute go to support the Syrentha Savio Endowment (SSE) Non-Profit Organization Providing Financial Assistance To Underprivileged Breast Cancer Patients. It’s a great cause and a good record.

edit: secret news update. VC is getting 300 copies by the looks of the store. I would only know this because they are already in the VC store. Grab one now, shhhhh, don’t tell anyone, lol!

Old White Lincoln - PO’s up everywhere…

So i was going to try and work something out with a certain mail order, just to make it easy for Americans to order, but when I look at it, half the places are in english, so there shouldn’t be any issues. I do know the PO went up today banquetrecords.com and they’re legit from everything I’ve heard and ship quick. There are a couple people on ebay selling them, amazon.de has them up and hmv.co.uk has them up as well. Pick one you like and go with it I guess.

here we go again - Live At Magnet in Berlin

Another great rip from Tobi, thanks man!

All Aboard photos up at VC!

Thanks to Virgil for the sneak peak! Here are photos of the first pressing of the Johnny Cash Tribute. Should be shipping sometime this week! Also, as you may notice, the pink looks very light. I’ve been told the pink is similar to the breast cancer pink you see on the ribbons, which makes perfect sense considering the group this album supports. Anyways, Enjoy….

Old White Lincoln updates

Just got some updated info about the upcoming single from The Gaslight Anthem. According to SideOneDummy, the 7″ will be pressed on white vinyl and will be limited to 1,000 copies. Obviously will include Old White Lincoln and the b-side will be the ‘59 sound - live acoustic from KEXP. There are preorders starting to pop up on various sites including amazon.de, hmv.co.uk and a couple others. I have been in touch with a couple mailorders to help out with anyone from the US who will want to order a copy and hopefully make it as easy as possible for us. I’ll post back when I can track down one of these mailorders who is willing to make it the easiest.

The 91x X-Session

Tobi comes through yet again with another bootleg/rip. Here is what he has for us this time and like I said last week, am going to be going through the audio goodies and organizing, just been super busy and slacking. Enjoy!

The 91x X-Session is up for listening here:

Live In Baltimore - 10/12/08

Check it out here. Gonna download later today, lemme know what ya think of the quality….

Old White Lincoln - Cover Art / Release Date

Ran across this today over at the forums. The cover art for the 7″/CD is out and about! So here is the cover art I’ve found, still trying to find something a little larger, so yeah! According to amazon.com, the EP will be released on December 2nd. You can actually Pre order the CD through amazon if you wish. Hopefully us Americans can find an easy way to get these in.

sink or swim demos - pics!

Virgil just posted these photos of the new sink or swim demos I mentioned just a few hours ago. I would combine the two posts, but I’m way too lazy for that. Anyways. he said they should be shipping by the end of the week, probably sooner. Get psyched!

Area4 video turned into mp3’s…

Tobi posted a rip from TV of the Area4 festival. He has now turned that video into mp3’s for your ipods pleasure. Check the link here and give it a listen. If you haven’t downloaded the TV version yet, check that out here. Big thanks to Tobi for all these rips, loving it!

PS I haven’t organized the audio downloads section in awhile, so I’ll be adding things and making sure everything is still working in the next few days. Ultimately I would like to put everything on mediafire since they don’t seem to have any sort of download limit, but they do have the 100MB file size limit. We’ll see what happens!

All Aboard: Johnny Cash Tribute - Pictures

Okay, that’s misleading, but I ran across this and am happy to see their moving right along. I have avoided playing the tribute in general, though I did give the gaslight anthem song a quick listen and I’m not sure what to think yet. Anyways, can’t wait to see what the vinyl looks like on these!
