Post by: jules on March 02, 2012, 03:54:22 AM
I'm hoping JSBX will have some tri-colour singles at their merch table in Brighton on 6 March. I'll try and get you one if you PM me first.

I have to resist the urge to dish out money every time something cool gets released. it's difficult.

Blasted.

wow, we got nightcrawlers on high alert.

65 bucks isn't so bad.

considering it's around 70 pounds (around 150 dollars) for 3 to dine at a nice pizza place in around London area as of 2006 (last time I was in London)

That was a joke. 25 pounds is around $38. Wish I'd bought one for myself now. Think the Melvins still have theirs to be sold yet.

If the sweaty melvins are as smart as I know they are, then of course they got plenty stashed away for a rainy day....you bet.

I think they could even wait for a time, and make a solid 15% markup STILL seem like a bargain!
