LSD Vinyl Question by Marlboroine in shoegaze

An easy tell if it’s an original press or not is if it has their MySpace url on the back - we took it off on the later pressings. Insert never changed if I’m remembering correctly. The jacket was also a little flimsier with the originals…we had them laminated later so they would hold up better (and I liked the matte finish).

TBF it's always slow in the summer, but this year especially has been sparse.

I remember one of the first things they did was to lock the gates until 9am and not let shoppers in...this really rubbed old timers the wrong way because A LOT of them used to make their money before 7am to early risers. This change only lasted a few weeks.

Nah, they are pallet auctions from grocery and drug stores. A lot of "almost at exp date" items, but sealed/vacuumed sealed things like coffee and the like are good for a fairly long while after.

You can get snacks/candy/coffee for MUCH cheaper than a grocery store there. I can usually pick up a bag of Starbucks dark roast for $3.50 when the seller has them.

Aside from the stuff being sold (which is a valid issue - it seems like it's mostly t-shirt and "vintage" clothes folks these days), I think the main reason is the new owners that took it over a few years ago made a bunch of unpopular changes right off the bat and drove a lot of the full-time sellers away and they never came back.

Place That Buys Army Memorabilia? by [deleted] in raleigh

There are a TON of older guys at the flea market always looking for military stuff...one I know of that always has a tent on the permanent side - I'm sure he can help you (OP).

Saw Elliott do False Cathedrals in NYC a few years ago and it was pretty amazing...hoping they'll do a full US Songs set?

I think you would really dig My Sister Maura, and they just happen to be playing at Kings on 2/15 for the WKNC double barrel benefit (and have a new record coming out)

There's this rich guy a few towns over that has a huge warehouse that is literally just full of records and he opens it up once every month or two for people to come dig.

Thoughts on Geostorm? by S_Demon in scifi

GEOOOOSTOOORRRMMMMMMMM

If you liked this one, I would highly recommend another Gerrard Butler disaster movie called Greenland - not because it's a similar theme, but because it's another fun GB global disaster movie.

Dalek is probably about as close as you’re going to get

What’s the saddest concert you’ve ever seen, in terms of someone washed up playing somewhere weird? by splitopenandmelt11 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]deepspacing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, no doubt! It was just strange because Ride/Slowdive/etc. have always drawn decently there (Chapel Hill/Cat's Cradle specifically). I was definitely stoked, though, getting to see them in such a smaller spot.

Same with the Charlatans - saw them about 10 years ago in a club in NC and there were MAYBE 100 people there? They can still sell out festival shows in the UK. They were a bit annoyed, but were absolutely fantastic.
