same but fill the holes in my broken soul

 

I didn't want to reveal too much about how far gone I am...but yes.

 

Walmart has informed me that my deliveries are delayed. Waiting an extra four days is at least better than waiting four months and having to cancel part of the order *massive side-eye at Merchbar*

Maybe it's because mine aren't so exclusive but my orders from big name corporations usually have a minimum subtotal for free shipping, or at the very least pick up in store, so I haven't noticed the shipping cost increase.

 

I've been very impressed with Near Mint. Each release I have seen from them has had multiple variants that I wanted because they all tend to correspond to the album artwork.

I appreciate that.

 

Yeah, I got the splatter of Wonderland, love that album. Obi strips are silly, especially for an extra cost, and that tri-color variant is absolutely hideous.

 

Tricolor makes me think of cornetto ice cream makes me think of Shaun of the Dead/Hot Fuzz/World's End

 

music mends.....

 

Cornetto variants are cool, this is just . . .

 

They always do a great job. Love the Sherwood, Lydia, and Spill Canvas albums I've bought recently. I really wanted to order that I Can Make a Mess TP with the caterpillar artwork too

 

I don’t think the tri-color is ugly at all, but I didn’t choose that one. I got the milky custard one

 

That one nice too. That, the splatter, and the marble were very tempting.

 

Yeah I dropped the extra on that too. If I can choose a tri colour /cornetto over a splatter. I'll do it.

Also I'm a sucker for the Near mint obi variants.
As long as they're not glued on the actual sleeve.

*looking at you The Maine*

 

Chance’s “Acid Rap” is on his site. $60 plus shipping. Lord have mercy.

 

Mostly for myself, I’m going to update my pre-orders / outstanding list:

Hellogoodbye - Will it kill you?
Menzingers - Some of it was true
Alkaline Trio - LP10
Fall Out Boy - TTTYG
Forgive Durden - Wonderland
Every Time I Die - Hot Damn!, Gutter Phenomenon, and Big Dirty (yes, I subsequently caved)

 

The last of my outstanding pre-orders came in two days ago, felt weird to just fully delete the “Waiting On” note in my notes app haha. I don’t think there’s been a time in at least 4 years that I had not a single thing in the queue

Really hard to not cave on The Big Dirty. Can’t believe it’s still available in both variants. Need that to sell out so I can stop thinking about it

 

I think I'm down to only 3.

North, Some Of It Was True and Take This To Your Grave.

 

I love PTH (avatar obviously) but have never loved this EP. I won't get the deluxe, I don't have any of the deluxe versions, but I'll probably pick it up if they do a regular release of it since I have all their other stuff and consider them a top 5 band of all time for me.

 

I've got:

Forgive Durden - Wonderland
The Menzingers - Some Of It Was True
Rx Bandits - The Resignation
Touche Amore - . . . Is Survived By

 

I’ve got 8 preorders.
4 I bought off Discogs, a couple big ones in this order.
And waiting on my huge MerchBar order to ship. I don’t want to talk about how many I got yet haha

 

Only two ...

Matchbook Romance - Stories and Alibis
Boys Like Girls - Sunday at Foxwoods

Pats self on back.

 

I think I’ve just got North left now.
