Melvins Discussion / Re: 51 in 51 merch raid - keep your eyes open!

Also, I still don't have the regular Scion edition Bulls & Bees CD (one of only 3 Melvins CDs I don't have) so if anyone has a spare they can send to a loving home for a few dollars + shipping that would be real cool too.

The CD came with the ten-inch, at least in Seattle it did. So if you score the vinyl you should get the CD as a bonus.

Yes, I think read that on here. I have a feeling I'm probably going to miss out on the 10" unless a few more go online (and hopefully the online ones come with the CD too).
What with the CD being free I thought there would be tons of spares around! More fool me...

I was hoping I would be able to get stuff from Shoxop as I tend to be pretty lucky with that stuff. I was watching Om in London when everything went on sale. Om was awesome but I was pretty gutted when I got home and found out what I'd missed...
Anyway... If anyone can pick me up a Bulls & Bees 10", 1983 10" and one of those cool Freak Puke t-shirts and post the lot to England I will be eternally grateful! I can pay for stuff and shipping through Paypal straight away.

Also, I still don't have the regular Scion edition Bulls & Bees CD (one of only 3 Melvins CDs I don't have) so if anyone has a spare they can send to a loving home for a few dollars + shipping that would be real cool too.

So yeah, long shot, but if anyone can help with either of these it would entirely restore all my faith in humankind and generally enrich my life.

I have a question about the AmRep version... Do all copies have the black skulls screen printed on the b sides of the actual records or did I get really lucky?
I seem to remember in the album they posted on facebook that it said that was a test batch or something because they took too long to dry...

My set is number 14 of 100 and has the skulls on the three blank sides of the records, as in the picture.

I did not see any normal Bulls and Bees at the shows I went to. I think you will need to contact Scion to get it?

They won't ship outside the US, apparently.

Would anyone be kind enough to be able to pick up a copy of each of the letterpress CDs and a normal copy of The Bulls And The Bees for me at an upcoming show?
I live in England, so can't really get hold of this stuff any other way (the UK shows I've been to have had rather sparse merch tables).

DC picked up an Endless Residency set for me on the last tour and that worked out nicely (thanks again!).
Will paypal costs, p+p etc.

PM if you can help!
Much appreciated!

I've got a couple of things I'm thinking of parting with:
Black Betty (splatter) 7"
Endless Residency (Austin, Texas - #46) 4CD Huge thanks to DC for picking this up - I ended up managing to get an LA mailorder version too though!
Bride LP - Mackie
Bride LP - Junko
Bride LP - Coop

Any offers...? Money? Cool shit to trade? I don't really have too much of the older rare/out of print stuff - just this very recent stuff.
Otherwise this stuff will probably go on eBay or something.
With regards to postage I'm in the UK.

Got mine.

The King Buzzo and the Adam Jones ones were the two I was most bothered about getting, and I got them both!

Where did you find the Bride album in the top right corner?

?

I think they were sold at the recent residency shows for $200.

I ordered it online way back, but it looks like it's not going to arrive until next week.
Glad it's streaming though.

At the 25 year anniversary shows I told Buzz (jokingly) that I hope they have 25 more.  He replied that one more year  was more likley.  That was over a year ago.  I think we can all just count our lucky stars to have been able to see this band live or get to speak to them.  The Melvins have done more in a career than almost anyone.  When they decide to stop they will have left us with more material, collectables, etc. than we can ever chase down.  Think about great bands like Black Flag who only put out like six albums.  The Melvins legend will live on forever.  I have faith that the members of this forum will make sure that this happens. 

Indeed. While new stuff is great and gives you something to look forward to there's not really any shortage of Melvins material. I mean... I have 1.7 days of Melvins in my iTunes! And all of that is stuff that's been released by the band... Granted 8 hours of it is Vs Minneapolis... But yeah, there's bootlegs too. I imagine most people have seen the Melvins more than me too (just the once - but I did meet Buzz afterwards!) and there's probably some great memories and stories. As it is there is so much Melvins stuff already released that I really couldn't complain if they did call it quits any time soon. I was thinking though... It would be great if they did a live DVD with the Big Biz guys... That's a release I'd like to see.
As it is we have Melvins Lite featuring Trevor Dunn to look forward to... I'd love to see some kind of release from that - live or otherwise.

I love that Houdini has 'Gimme Pizza' on the end. So good.
And I think it might be better than the other live Houdini...

That's funny.  I keep listening to that Gimme Pizza part, again and again.  It's Olsen Twins, right?  lmao

Yeahhh! Someone beat the Melvins to slowing it down though.
