Where you the winner of the Largest Record Collection Ever that sold recently on ebay? 3 Million bucks did get you a lot of chances to find something cool. The description states the owner had been offered much more and has been valued at over 20M.
Pre-orders are starting to show up for The Gutter Twins with signed booklets available from Newbury Comics and bonus items (not mentioned on the web site) with the vinyl LP at Sub Pop to the first 200 people to order.
Great, new blues/rock band called Cut In The Hill Gang has a limited single out on The Little Room Record Company.
Southern Lord has the new Boris 7” on gold vinyl and limited to 1K copies. While Inoxia Records has the new cd Smile, limited shirt and 12” single available for pre-order.
Yep Rock Records has the new Apples In Stereo cd + LP, Electronic Project For Musicians, and the first 200 orders get a signed cd.
Here is an interesting commentary about the Angry White Man which is a direct reaction to the hate-america elitists with BDS (bush derangemant syndrome) who are in fashion right now. Unionized Socialism will not work for most of America and if it takes us 4 years to find out, so be it. It's funny to see Billary go down against the extreme left-wing candidate she fabricated to show how centrist her views were. Maybe if she promised to finish trashing The White House and steal everything she left behind it would excite her 'base'.

clean this place up
Aural Exploits has the exclusive presale of the Elliott Smith XO and Figure 8 LP’s on color vinyl in a limited pressing of 500 each. The regular pressing will be on black vinyl.
Smarties who purchased the Chunklett Whirlyball single with ticket and DCFC Transatlanticism LP make the correct choices.
You have not surfed the web until you have seen it on a monitor tilted 90 degrees. This oversized screen measures 13" wide x 21" tall and it's like reading the newspaper. I never thought I would like it so much. Now I need to clean my office and put everything in place over the weekend to start being productive. This is my first upgrade in over 3 years and I must have 100 wires and a dozen peripherals to put in it's proper location.
Lost fans. Do you ever wonder what Sawyer would nickname you? Don’t pass up the chance to find out with this special nickname game. He has skulled me as JumboTron.

not in my backyard
Super limited full length LP from Kelley Stoltz is available from Cass Records.
A little hint to this year’s big backyard project.
Well the Patriot loss was hard to swallow because of the huge letdown in the level of play by the offensive line. But not nearly as devastating as sudden as the ground ball in ’86 nor as heart breaking as the homerun in 2003. The Giants outplayed us.
New, limited Earth LP is now available from Southern Lord. Altar picture disks are still available in spite of bidders purchasing them for over $100 on ebay.
Here is another, local example of the typical environmental (notice mental) argument against alternative energy that makes no sense (hey, it is RI). When someone tries to get off big oil by installing an outdoor wood boiler, begins to save real money then suddenly the neighbors cry foul. Just wait until someone wants to put up their own 'personal' wind tower. Once again the wackos prove: your are free to do what we tell you.

RI: dead state walking
Lost – Once again the best show on television delivers and expands. Fans check out the Easter Egg Shots (no spoilers) to try and keep up. Just incredible.
Robert Pollard has a new LP limited to 500 copies.
Chunklet has reissued a 500 press, limited Harvy Milk LP that is close to sold out and added another press for the Whirlyball Single.
RI Socialism 301: Are there more RI’ers willing to take a 2-3% hit on their taxes to keep (or expand) their social services and gold-plated state worker benefits OR more residents that don't get subsidies from the state and want to limit social services while trying to stop with this expansion of income redistribution?
The Poverty Pimps are out in full force, so anyone who has a job, get ready for a tax hike and more fees to cripple our local economy. But have no fear, here is our state’s first official 'thank you' in the form of a poem from an anonymous crimalien, with a big heads-up to Anchor Rising.
I come for visit, get treated regal,
So I stay, who care I illegal?
I cross border, poor and broke,
Take bus, see employment folk.
Nice man treat me good in there,
Say I need to see welfare.
Welfare man says "no learn English,"
Fills out some forms in Spanish.
Then he say, "You come no more,
We send cash right to your door."
Next whispers in my native tougue,
You also qualify for Food Stamps, did you bring anyone?
Welfare checks, they make you wealthy,
Medicaid it keep you healthy!
By and by, I got plenty money,
Thanks to you, American dummy.
We have hobby--it's called breeding,
Rite-Care pay for baby feeding.
RI'ers crazy! They pay all year,
To keep welfare running here.
We think RI darn good place!
Too darn good for the working white man race.
If you no like us, you can go,
Got lots of room in Mexico!”

get back in line
I am shocked, shocked I tell you, that Patches: an insane, druggie redhead who represents RI, his murderous, drunk father who represents MA and a third aristocrat who happened to be born while being a staunch anti-environmentalist would together endorse a first term senator from IL for president because he wants change. What does an entrenched lifetime appointed senator have to do with change?
If any kennedy wanted to support change (whatever that is) they would quit and go in rehab and let change take place. But like usual with liars, the half-truth comes out at the end of his sermon: As long as your winning Obama, I'm on your side. If not, well I'm being plugged back into the machine. Now that's Kennedy Leadership.
This move must completely piss off Billary and that is never good for your health and well-being. The two candidates completely ignored each other last night at the State of the Union speech and barely had the courtesy to support the President without displaying their snob appeal. Is it now impossible for the two to run together?
Here is some classic early B-52's to calm you down.

thaw the freeze
Still more interesting developments on the White Stripes Conquest singles. Apparently with a little patience, tweezers and sharp fingernails the newly applied ‘corrected’ stickers can be removed. Boy, what a mess.
The super-limited debut single by Modern Action on white vinyl sold out in 3 days and the 350 copy repress is now available on black vinyl at interpunk.
Here’s another chance at a signed Muldoons 7" single and you might as well pick up their solid full length while it’s on sale.
The Gutter Twins are steaming down the track with Idle Hands as Greg Dulli and Mark Lanegan team up for what they term as the Eisley Brothers on acid. Highly recommended and they are visiting Boston in March.

fingers crossed
I've been trying to find a way to archive and list all the great projects that have been crossing my desk recently. Any good ideas welcome. Expecting a big mail day today. Stay tuned.
The limited 7” single for the Whirlyball show are now available and there will be another Les Savy Fav color repress soon.
Amazing find of the week. A box of Death Cab For Cutie’s Transatlanticism was found at Sonic Boom Records. Grab one if you can.
Updated design for the Rehoboth Cape that want to add a new second floor and expanded to a rather large Colonial.
The first pass at expanding the first floor and add a second floor Master Suite to a Plymouth Ranch near the ocean.
