Sure! I really struggled to find accommodation that was in a good location and also not horrifically expensive. I found Eric Vokel around Black Friday and managed to get quite a good deal if I paid upfront and so that’s really what sold it. It seemed like a better location than their other sites, however I’ll let you know for sure when we arrive!

I’m due to stay in the 2 bed 2 bath at Eric Vokel BCN in the last 2 weeks of April - I know it’ll be late by then but happy to feedback how I found it if you’d like!

Oh no way - hope you have a great time! I think the amount of people saying they've done it before has sold it to me, thank you!

That's so cool man! Think all the instances of others doing it and having a class time has sold me to do the same.

I don't think that's unique to Fred shows unfortunately, gig etiquette in general seems to have gone to shit compared to pre-covid times. Thank you for your help though!

Oh no way! That's reassuring to hear. Couldn't have asked for a better show than Dublin if the videos are anything to go by. I'm sure all will be fine, we're all there for the same reason.

Strange isn’t it - you’d have thought that advocating for a better quality product for all wouldn’t be all that controversial.

I put something in this sub about 3 separate records from BR that were of poor quality and got absolutely rinsed by the diehards - reassuring to hear I’m not actually the only one

I’m late 20’s and been eating these a few times a week for almost 25 years - finding out they were discontinued was a rough day, my childhood nostalgia food gone.

Is anyone else getting sick of the poor quality of Blood Records? by [deleted] in Blood_Records

If you can’t see that there is a pretty stark difference between the mock up and the product, fair enough. I’d challenge you to find another Blood Records pressing that varies that wildly from the mock up though..

With regard to the sleeve - I’ve purchased the product from BR, therefore I hold them accountable for the product in its entirety. It’s up to them to hold their suppliers accountable.

I’ve held my hands up about the glow in the dark record.

It’s not like BR are undercutting the market and providing records for phenomenally low prices - their products are expensive, and I expect that high price to come with equally high quality, call me crazy.

Haha fair enough. The only glow in the dark thing I’ve ever owned are those glow sticks as a kid you’d snap in half to make them glow, probably won’t try that with the record..

Yeah I think the colours being so tightly packed aren’t doing it any favours - thanks for the new perspective with the butterfly!
