you know those times when you wish you had money?

ohh ..

I cant remember, though if I had to guess, it would be RAR, because the guitar logo is exactly the same as the guitar logo on the RAR CD / lyric insert.

Chris tried selling this a few years ago, and i offered him 175 dollars.. he was suppose to sell it to me but he decided to keep it.

I may still buy it, but since i already have 3 RAR test pressings, I really dont know what the benefit of having 4 would be.. For the money I would be willing to cough up for this I can buy a lot of other stuff.

if you've got 3, why do you even need a 4th? just let some other kid who's starting a collection have it. same goes for you, andy!

well because...,

there are different test pressings.

also, if me or andy end up winning it, it'll be a lot better for us, because it will be that much harder for someone to obtain a collection that is somewhat equal to ours.

selfish

Impact, do you know if the AM! guys collect their own records? I mean, would Tom/Andrew/James/Warren or even Jordan have more stuff than you do, or do they just make it and then forget it?

I think if I were in a band I'd like to have one of everything we ever did. It's like a trophy... it's a physical manifestation of years of hard work, and the multiple pressings just go to show that people appreciated it enough to demand more.

well i emailed Tom about it awhile back and he said he does have some of their stuff, but only the really really rare stuff. Also, as far as Sabot test pressings go, Jordan keeps one for himself, and gives the rest to the band. There is also a pressing of the acoustic ep that is on dieherea swirl vinyl, that wasnt sent out to the public. i asked Jordan about it, and he said they only went to friends/family/band

right. friends, family, and you.

between impact, flood and myself
im pretty confident to say we have it all covered

That's actually really selfish, if you already have a gigantic collection of basically everything, why does another one matter? I agree with Aesthetic guitar, let some other kid who is really into the band buy it, it would be a lot more significant to them then it would be to you or Impact.

Also, Impact, dude where do you come up with all the money? Do you sell cocaine or what?

whats stopping "some other kid who is really into the band" bidding for it? its not selfish at all. If that kid has got the cash hes got as much chance of getting it as we do. we have worked long and hard on our collections for many years now. Another one matters because it might be a missing piece to a collection. I need that test press because of my OCD for vinyl, but i doubt i will be bidding on it.

im not being a dick here, but if someone wants it they should bid and see if they can get it. just like if myself or impact wanted it we would bid.

for the record, i was joking, i could give a shit who gets the test pressing

nah never.

who of you 2 has been collecting AM! longer? i'm guessing impact

yeah i would say impact by a couple of months

Funny thing, I know two different drug dealers that live in San Diego, one who sells (mostly) coke and the other who sells (mostly) ecstasy and ketamine. The people yoou meat at shows... lol!

Anyways, I think that andy and impact have serious vinyl addictions and should seek help...

they didnt get arrested did they?..

around 100 students at SDSU got arrested for selling drugs.

I dunno about the coke dealer on the account of me not doing coke or having any friends that do coke.. (Anymore) And I haven't been in contact with her for about five months or more.. But the ecstasy guy hasn't been busted as far as I know because I spoke with him some time in late March / early April..

wow real nice stuff here
