We should wear the moo moo, take photos and pass it on LIKE WE USED TO DO with Sniv. Washing before wearing would be prohibited so that by the time it reached the final person, all our DNA would be all over it. Then someone would get in touch with a guy in a white coat and a test tube, involve the Hadron Collider somehow, and find a willing egg. Nine months later, the greatest Melvins fan known to mankind would be born.

The curse (C) would be multiplied by the number of people who wore it cubed (U) and the result transferred into the DNA of the embryo (K). Therefore, the fan-creature produced (F) would BE ABLE to curse at will. Mathematically this would be shown as:

F = UCK

That's all well and good, but we all know that by the time it reaches the last person we'll all be dead. Having lived long full lives and always wondering: "whatever happened to that mumu? Last I remember we sent it to JonE5"

The piss Eggnog.  Has anyone ever taken a picture of it?  I only know one person who has said they have seen it.
The love canal is a test pressing.  Here she comes now has been bootlegged to high heaven.  I still don't know why it gets the prices it does.  The Melvins duffle bag with buttons was nice.

I seem to remember there were 15 sets, all going to members of the band. Don't quote me, though.

This makes me think of a funny story....
My old band was doing a show in Austin ,TX sometime in the '90s. We were staying with a
friend, "Handsome" Joel Svatek,( R.I.P. ), and so after the show we get to Joel's place, he's showing
us where everything is and where to sleep. One of his room mates wasn't home, but the door to
his room was open and pinned to his wall was a couple of  long tube socks w/ the stripes at the top.
The socks were gross and dirty, so I asked Joel why would someone have disgusting tube socks on
their wall ?  Joel tells me that Down or Superjoint Ritual, can't remember which one, stayed at the
house a few months before and his roommate was a BIG fan. So when Phil Anselmo left his socks,
this guy put those putrid things on his wall like a shrine to Anselmo.:lol:....directly over his bed !  :lol:

Anaconda had one. He said it was a promo copy, but it had the actual cover.

Yep. It came shrinkwrapped with the CMJ when I was working
at the Humber college radio station. I got the Prick promo cassette
the same way.

I've seen other copies of Prick on cassette but have never seen another

I was wondering if the artwork was identical to the box set version but now I see it's not.  The box set one doesn't say "A Senile Animal" on the cover.

they were for band members only. the guy who sold me my trilogy gave me a bunch of bonus stuff and had a copy that buzz gave him (supposedly they are friends or something). I'm not sure how many, but he tried to sell it on ebay and they took it down as fast as it went up. i guess the selling point of swastikas doesn't go over very well with ebay.
by the way, I am selling my hole collection on ebay right now if anyone is interested, i think 13 lp's (USA, NM, inserts, some in shrink) and 5 7"'s
it's on for a week, you'll know which one it is.

Don't think Melvins vs Minneapolis was mentioned.

I have the second version (limited to 333 copies). That's really the only truly valuable thing i have in my melvins collection, aside from i guess the Prick LP, which i don't know how rare those are.
