51 in 51 merch raid - keep your eyes open!

[spunkmonkey]

With the amount of stuff people were buying last night, I can't see how the merch is going last.  A dude in front of me was obviously there for the merch only (a dirty flipper).  He had his cell phone out that had a list of stuff to buy.  He didn't look like he knew anything about what he was buying; just holding up his phone to Walsby and pointing.

When people on here talk about those who flip records im never sure what to think. I can understand the hatred caused there but equally i can see they are people who are just taking advantage of a situation which is open to others to do the same too. I guess im saying it's fair in it's unfairness. Maybe it's because im not into band merch but i don't think of the act as all that bad. Supply and demand and all that. Still i wouldn't do it myself.

I agree.  If there are no rules about how many you can buy, more power to you.

Might be cool if there were a line of Merch availabe just thru this site. Not everyone can travel to these shows and load up.,,,,Alfunso

You're not far from the truth. And that's just what Godflesh asked me to get him 

Yes, Melvins is a bitch! I want one of everything in every variation imaginable.
You need a mule Jules. One to carry the load and one to smuggle them to Britain.

I think he's going to need his own plane.

i dont buy into the flippers. the most i have paid for a melvins release is $60 and that was for TBSM from amprep.

anybody who buys me the banana MELVINS poster (spoof of Velvet Underground album) Walsby did gets fully compensated for all costs including shipping and.. AND becomes the newest member of my top 3 favorite users.

(While we're on the subject of bananas, I presented Jared with THE banana meant for Big Biz a month ago, and you'll be pleased to know it is now been fully incorporated into the Big Biz shows! Idle has photos you won't believe...............)

I can't get you a banana poster because I can't carry any more. Walsby says I broke a record last night!

jules is the man

Yo that Cars rip is both awesome, and disturbing ... but mostly awesome because it's disturbing.

So, here's a bunch of pics of the vinyl and letterpresses.  Might take a few posts.  Here we go.......

Bulls & Bee's Pink writing on the cover with steer on the back.  Note that every record came with a cd and an insert.

Bulls & Bee's red writing with SWEET and an arrow on the back.

Also, every record I bought for myself or for someone else has a record slip with a bent corner.  It happens, don't freak out about it.

1983 10 inchers

Only 4 of the covers were available when I was at the tables.  The red face with 1983 in the forehead wasn't there.  Some of you whom I bought for will owe me to look for this one and grab it for me please.

[Idlehanz]

Two version of Maggot letterpress.  I doubt they are different versions.  Probably just Mackie having fun on the press and adding things.
