can't give u info about justin and why he gave me that record that nite - i still can't believe, just know i've got it.

Well this just makes you sound like either you stole it or are lieing. Don't see why you would have a gag order over an old record.

sorry, can't copy it on harddisk, don't have the equipment for that

Uh you dont have a microphone input for your computer? [Stereo System]--->[Mic In]--->[Recording Software (www.goldwave.com)]--->[Hard Disk]



Not that hard.





I completely understand about you collecting. I collect alot of their stuff too so I totally feel you on that. Older forum members know that I collect but I guess since you joined while I wasn't actively posting you don't know much about me. I've got alot of rarities too.

Don't plug it into the mic-in, the output from the stereo will be far too 'hot' for the soundcard's pre-amp, and will sound like total shite. If you're gonna do that, don't bother to encode it any higher than 24Kbs as an MP3.



Use the line-in on the soundcard. And that assumes your stereo has line-out/aux, most don't actually have that.

I think most recievers have line out/out lines. And you can plug it into the mic in. Though know what you're doing first and have a some what decent sound card. I have a old one but it doesn't have bad noise interference. Also windows has a setting where it will mess with the eq of the incoming mic so make sure to turn that off. It wont be too hot but you will have to do some leveling inorder to get everything lined up straight. I've used mic in several times to make digital rips of my old vinyl that I don't want to be playing alot. and they sound great. It's a little technically savy BWGE but you, as in everyone in this forums, is smart enough to figure it out.

there are 2 versions of MMM available with the original track. the first one -a test pressing- is white-labelled and Tom or Ed wrote "THE DUST BROTHERS ----- SONG TO THE SIREN" with black edding on the front white label, the back says "JUIOR BOY'S OWN".





OMG, i was too tired when writing this and maybe should have had another look before posting it. of course it is written "TEH DUST BROTHERS ----- MY MERCURY MOUTH E-P" and "JUNIOR BOYS OWN" on there. excuse me :-//

and propably, for nothing and free, in most record shops :) need to ask my girlfriend, her father owns a bunch of record shops ;-)

Yeah, Golden Eyes, that's the thing. Record stores get all kinds of promotional stuff like posters, flats, stickers, postcards, etc. etc. from the labels in hopes they will be used in-store.



I am in charge of all that stuff at my store. And I am more than happy to give out posters, flats, anything sent from labels that will likely find its way in the trash if unused. I'd rather give the stuff away than toss it.

Hi Whirly, you are my bestest friend in the world!







X-D

yeah massive respect to whirly. i've made some bad experience with people workin in recordstores that disagreed with givin out promotional items for free and preferred to throw them away. in 99, i asked for the let forever be promo poster in august, after the single release. the guy told me he would not give away promotional items for free and wanted to sell it for 5 quid. }:-@ of course i didn't buy it

Golden Eyes, that's totally... lame what the record store people did to you.



Those promo posters aren't for them to make a profit from, I don't see what the big deal is giving away extra point-of-purchase materials that are just going to be thrown in the trash anyway. Some people...



It really does depend on the store tho. Some stores within my chain don't let customers have any kind of merdchandising material. But my store has always been good in giving that stuff away. Even when I was a little kid.



Plus we're all lazy bastards. If giving posters and flats away means one less trip to the garbage cans - I say give it away! All of it! ;)

Haha!

You ought to donate some of that promotional material to the forum. ;)

Well, I haven't gotten anything for Push the Button yet. Still waiting.



When the Singles came out I got a package from Astralwerks that contained a bunch of flats and some postcard lookin thingies.

I remember that PM whirly.

i've made my experience with tower, piccadilly circus, former singles section which is closed now for some time already }:-@

never mind. asked my girlfriend last nite and she will sort that out

I guess we all volunteer in saving you some trips to the garbage can in the future. :P

hehe, c-row, you are absolutely right :D

Well I'm first choice cos I know Whirly from way back, even if she didn't know me. I mean I didn't know her that well, just from what I could see of her through my binoculars.

I should be very worried Whirlygirl.
