Melvins/Walsby Book/CD update

[norecess]

I got my copy in the mail yesterday - a belated birthday present

It all looks really cool, and the demos are awesome. I really enjoyed the Melvins tour story, and Brians ability to emphasize parts in funny stories in general, very sharp and sophisticated. Job well done!

Have been enjoying it very much myself as well, especially the tour-diaries, but the only shitty thing is the gluing of the magazine which fell apart almost by the time I opened it and there now thus are several loose pages, which sucks.

btw, is that really Buzz singing on Vile Vermillion Vacancy? Haha he sounds like a little girl!

what fun it was to read back through the small mention of the Chattanooga show - being in the balcony, I got the full view of the Ron-goose-step-kick-out scene - funny stuff.  Walsby drew some really funny posters the next evening in Knox-vegas dedicated to Ron, but decided to keep them at the time (was going to buy one of them).  oh well.

peace,

Mine started falling apart shortly after I began reading it as well.  I emailed bifocal about it.

[Cardello]

Well shit...Brian and I have been having contests to see who can tear them up the fastest. It's hard work. Perhaps you guys should send me some of these defective units so I'll have the upper hand.

I pre-ordered from Bifocal, live in WA State USA and just got mine yesterday. It probably will get to you Europe folks soon. This is one of the coolest things I have ever got for 10 bucks!! I love the part at the end of the tour diary where Walsby leaves and Buzz and Moss are crying like babies HA-HA. The book is absolutely wonderful and the demos CD is outstanding. This is how the MELVINS used to sound back when I was a young-en in high school. Even then Buzz had some great riffage and timing, and his voice is very young sounding, but you can hear the underlying Buzzo growl. I love the buzz- saw tone he has in the mid range notes, haven't heard quite the same raw sounding tone since Bullhead. Pretty good recording for a 4 track. This book and CD is brilliant, and every MELVINS fan should get it. Walsby if you ever read this THANK YOU YOUR BOOK IS COOL AS HELL.

Well...............How do you like it?? I can't let mine go and listened to the CD all day.

I just got mine, so I expect Europeans will get theirs in a week or so.

That's damn near what I said, Butty Butt Holeus Manimus   

Seriously though, I just ordered 3 more of these things from CD Universe to pass out to friends as gifts!!
