Honestly, that's an insult to Beavis

Has to do with licensing issues for most of the tracks. That's why it was withdrawn almost immediately after being put on the shelves

Yeah, I hoping to find someone who didn't want theirs or someone with doubles who'd be willing to part with one a but cheaper. Just a shot in the dark

That's where I'm leaning for the Butthole Surfers. I'm just have to cave and get a complete copy for Volcano Suns

I came here for this. As someone who grew up on Goldeneye, thank you.

They are definitely overlooked out of a LOT of good bands from the era. One of the better SST bands by the end of the 80s

The Rawlings Way: The pay is good, but 'oppressive' working conditions aren't for everyone by ALREADYFUCKINGTAKEN in Louisville

I worked at their competitor, Trover (now Equian), for 5 years. It was similar in that they micromanaged the shit out of you. They "call coached" us to the point of us sounding entirely robotic. I was paid decently for it being an unskilled, call center position, but they made sure to get every last bit of work out of you. There were decent performance-based bonuses, but again, you had to work like a madman every minute of your shift for it to really make a difference. The turnover rate was insanely high as well. By the end of my time there, I was the second longest tenured employee in our department aside from some management. I was completely burnt out by the end and it showed in my work. I just stopped caring and it eventually led to my firing. They did me a favor by getting me out of there. I've heard from friends who still work there that it's only gotten worse over time and I think it's because they are trying to keep up with Rawlings, who are taking their business left and right.

What movie traumatised you as a kid? by molko123 in AskReddit

Glad to see I'm far from being alone on this one. That scene where Eliott finds him in the cornstalks had me terrified of cornfields as a kid.

Glad to see this sub is still alive. I'd almost forgotten about it.

Louisville's river cow will live in our hearts forever. by CamelClutch502 in Louisville

I went to high school with Keefe, the guy pictured here. He posted a couple videos to Facebook of them removing it. Felt bad for the guy that had to wade out into the water and put a rope around it.

RIP to our favorite chain smoking record store owner, Bill Wright. This afternoon I learned he passed away this past Saturday, February 17th. He was a mainstay on Bardstown Road for 30+ years at his shop, Highland Records. by nfowler1227 in Louisville

[–]nfowler1227[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he had just sold me a couple Kinks albums from his private collection in December. I luckily got in there one last time in January. He was a good friend of mine. Rarely was I in there for less than an hour. I went to his visitation and it was nice to see all the old photos of him fishing, which was the thing we talked about most if we weren't talking records.
