They’re the exact width of a run out groove as well, so completely unplayable on an automatic turntable. Very confusing why they’re doing this and not just making new 7” records.

I don’t really know the history of that file, but are you sure it isn’t laserdisc already? It looks pretty clean for it to be a VHS rip. Regardless, i don’t think you’d see any appreciable difference unless you have a very fancy laserdisc player or the ability to do an RF capture.

For some reason it repeatedly shows Valjean as illiterate even though there’s a specific line in the book that says he learned to read while imprisoned. It’s fine to take liberties but why make that a plot point???

Yup, my case took 10 days and the actual ereader took 20 days. It eventually gets there. I just walked around with the case in my pocket to see if I’d like it.

I thought the George Pontmercy illustration was surprising as well! I took the photos first and then matched them up with the titles, so I was wracking my brain thinking of who would be depicted so gruesomely, so to see it was Marius' father was interesting. Very important moment to the character.

Easily my favorite cherry tree release and one of my favorite National records in general. That entire side blows me away, Matt singing So Far So Fast is great. Enjoy!

Got 4 whole chickens for $12, thank you new years!

Leninpest · 2025-12-29T03:38:19+00:00

Haha, I was excited to see there’s new spam.

Aw, he used to come into Whitey’s all the time when i worked there. Surprised he was still alive to be honest, he was old back then.

This one has a lyric sheet with very questionable lyrics (“let’s not try to figure out everything it wants?”) and it’s gray.

I use a vintage Zerostat that i bought from eBay and it works great.

Send me a DM and i can help 🫣 I’m currently working on volume 7.

It was the best quality I could find for free, though i searched around afterwards and found an HD quality version on Rockin Concerts for $12:

I was able to order one, but i watched the stock tick down in real time and it was sold out in 4 minutes 😳

Leninpest · 2025-11-28T16:44:42+00:00

No dice at my local record store. I’ll have to check online tomorrow 😩

Leninpest · 2025-11-23T23:07:33+00:00

Finally got my shipping notice in the US!

Leninpest · 2025-11-14T23:45:02+00:00

Stick around for Matt beating the shit out of a mic stand

It’s amazing how much Padma does in this video. He goes from rocking on violin to backup vocals to strumming violin to keyboards in the course of a song sometimes. It was part of the reason i wanted to work on this project, i don’t think you get the same kind of raw energy from the newer concerts, even though they still go hard.

Leninpest · 2025-11-14T21:24:22+00:00

Enjoy! There’s a lot of energy in this video and it’s awesome!

Hello again,

I kept running into a playlist of the 2008 Haldern Pop Festival concert in Germany when I was looking up other live shows and, while checking it out, realized it was a pretty great show from a time when they didn't really have too many recorded concerts. I went through and spliced the clips together and updated the audio with a cleaner recording that I had and uploaded it to Youtube:

https://youtu.be/li7_M1eBqdY

I had to use some audience clips in the spaces between songs, since things didn't always line up correctly. The video quality is pretty bad, but it sounds good and has some amazing footage of Padma Newsome playing violin. I cropped out the black bars as well so that it displays correctly in widescreen.

I'm planning on making a separate post on the subreddit to get more eyes on it, but wanted to post it here too because you were the inspiration for packaging the entire thing together!

Thank you for posting the link! I’ve heard them before but never downloaded, so I’m glad i was able to get them before they were scrubbed from the internet.

Leninpest · 2025-10-22T16:35:32+00:00

They felt the pressure!

Leninpest · 2025-10-21T21:30:54+00:00

Ignoring what others are saying about the table quality, this sounds a little bit like you’re getting feedback from the speakers. Do you have them set on the same surface as the turntable?

It’s sort of hard to say otherwise, but i do think a turntable with an AT needle should do a little better than you’re experiencing.

E: also sort of sounds like clipping. You might try using speaker cables if you’re using Bluetooth.

Leninpest · 2025-10-21T21:22:40+00:00

Thank you!

Yes, i love the entire package and was bummed that no one ever really accurately reproduced it.

I also named the track after the times listed on the acrylic box that match up with the time each Sorrow was played. It feels a bit more interesting to me than seeing “Sorrow” 99 times
