Can you please put up a YouTube link to hear the Melvan?
The download, she eez no bueno, senior...... :(
I don't have it anymore.  The clip is lost somewhere on a hard drive.  Maybe someone saved it?
:cry:

You aren't missing a lot. It's a barely running engine sound.
I was trying to put up Steel Pole Bath Tub-Four Barrels,
but YouTube only has the whole album.
The Melvan was on the MELVINS Facebook group, this week.
Deserves better comments than "kiss blows!"  #-o

The Melvan thing has kind of run it's course.  It was a hot topic for a while, then the whole ebay thing kind of killed interest in it, as it was sold, then it wasn't, then it was, then it wasn't....Now it has sold, but for far less than anyone ever thought it would. It's still an interesting piece of history.  In, and after high school, we'd smoke out in that thing, tye dye shirts, and once recorded vocals in it.
Who'd you go to high school with?

He went to school with Ben Dover and Anita Mandelay.

Whoever bought it from Ben (?) a few years ago. They're expecting the kiss panel to go for 20-40k. Someone is bidding on the spray painted 'no talent' panel, which is real weird, since it was added after Ben got the van. Curious to know how much Ben sold it for, I'm guessing 20k.
