Yesterday I got 20 by Gorky's Zygotic Mynci and In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country by Boards Of Canada on CD. I already have the BOC one on record, but it is more practical for me to play on CD... just not as nice to look at.

― Damian (Damian), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

NOTHING today and NOTHING yesterday, Real Groovy kinda sucks at the moment. Though yesterday in Onehunga I got Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron. I'm still waiting for our damn record orders to turn up.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 10:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I got some jeans. Otherwise what she said, mostly

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 11:33 (twenty-two years ago)

A "Jackass" tee-shirt.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 15 May 2003 11:44 (twenty-two years ago)

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 15 May 2003 13:27 (twenty-two years ago)

yay yay you guys got some futurians. is it "blastov" or "projektor"? hope its one with "dance robot" the song on it.

― ducklingmonster, Friday, 16 May 2003 07:06 (twenty-two years ago)

No it's "Blastov!". I like it, though. Heard it twice as yet. Do you guys like Neu! and such crap?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 16 May 2003 13:01 (twenty-two years ago)

― Lynch (Lynch), Friday, 16 May 2003 18:02 (twenty-two years ago)

oh yeah Neu! and such crap. anything with !exclamation! is good. saw latest aeathetics lineup last night and they played the ihe fav woo-oo-ooo song.

yesterday at the record store i got television - marquee moon, too (only $12)

and in the mail i got cat power - you are free and the clash - give 'em enough rope.

― Clare (not entirely unhappy), Saturday, 17 May 2003 03:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I got Television - The Blow Up on tape at the record store. I was also going to buy some Velvets bootleg but I couldn't afford it, sadly.

― Livvie Tapper (Livvie), Saturday, 17 May 2003 06:42 (twenty-two years ago)

today was a good day at the sale bins - david bowie-scary monsters, sparks-no1 in heaven and sparks-propaganda

― ducklingmonster, Saturday, 17 May 2003 07:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I like all that stuff too, what a homogenous board. KRS order turned up, Excuse 17/Quasi/Julie Ruin Lps, Bikini Kill (x2) and free Retsin 7"s. All are really good so far, waaaar

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Sunday, 18 May 2003 10:37 (twenty-two years ago)

was your quasi album red vinyl too? red vinyl is so hawwwwwt. i think i like "easter" by patti smith better than "horses". should i get "wave"?

― di smith (lucylurex), Sunday, 18 May 2003 20:54 (twenty-two years ago)

di we need to do another krs order - thoes auckland smuts r makin' me jealous

― ducklingmonster, Monday, 19 May 2003 01:01 (twenty-two years ago)

hawkwind - live 1970-1972 - $3 at the warehouse - sweeeeeeeeeeet

― ducklingmonster, Monday, 19 May 2003 04:39 (twenty-two years ago)

The last CD I bought for myself was Siamese Dream by the Smashing Pumpkins. Homogeneous? Not anymore :).

― Damian (Damian), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah Di, get Wave! I really like it even though it is the most 'commercial' of the Patti Smith albums. Also I think I too like Easter better than Horses (except for 'Break It Up' of course) but neither are better than RADIO ETHIOPIA.

― Livvie (Livvie), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah get "Wave", it's pretty great, but you should be able to get it pretty cheap and you should. On the other hand I'm talking crap cos I even like "Dream of Life" quite a bit... Forced Exposure order today, Royal Trux "Accelerator" Lp, Mirror/Dash 7". I'm listening to my red Quasi vinyl even as I type, it's up to 'A Case of No Way Out'. I like Hawkwind and Smashing Pumpkins a fair bit, tho

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 19 May 2003 11:41 (twenty-two years ago)

when in dunners 3 weeks ago i couldn't find a good record store :-(

i found one on a steep street that smelled of cat piss, though.

where do you dunners folks get yr music (apart from krs shipments)?

― Clare (not entirely unhappy), Monday, 19 May 2003 18:49 (twenty-two years ago)

records records - it might've been the one on the steep street you mentioned. upstairs at echo sometimes has some good stuff but its overpriced. also opshops. 50cent bins are the greatest thing since fairy bread.

duckling i might consider doing another krs order after i've bought a new tapedeck and got my camera fixed. theres also cheap strats down at cash converters getting me all hot and horny. and the flanger pedal. THE FLANGER PEDAL. gah i hate lust-for-material-objects.

― di smith (lucylurex), Monday, 19 May 2003 19:35 (twenty-two years ago)

ma dad sent me the new dirty three cd and i catalogued a book and cd called 'New Wave folkdancing for under fives' at work

― ducklingmonster, Tuesday, 20 May 2003 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

oooh weee i had fun in christchurch! got myself:
new order - substance
t rex - electric warrior
t rex - zip gun
sparks - kimono my house
heart - little queen
def leppard - hysteria.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 24 May 2003 01:27 (twenty-two years ago)

New Order "Substance" = Classic

Def Leppard "Hysteria" = Something I would buy with no explaination to anyone.

Excellent.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 24 May 2003 03:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I got Never Mind The Bollocks for $5 at Cash Converters in New Lynn the other day, because why not? Well, there are plenty of reasons not to, but it was cheap.

― Damian (Damian), Saturday, 24 May 2003 09:17 (twenty-two years ago)

At the booksale there is no time for thinking or taste, you have grannys with pointy elbows on either side, you see record/book you grab.Its autopilot not reason.

― ducklingmonster, Sunday, 25 May 2003 05:59 (twenty-two years ago)

23 Skidoo "Seven Songs", Mission of Burma "Vs", Julian Cope "World Shut Your Mouth". Got Scott Walker "Scott 3" the day before, too. GREAT, all, but pretty expensive.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Sunday, 25 May 2003 09:19 (twenty-two years ago)

does that 23 Skidoo have "IY" on it? great track.

anyway - flatmate H. had a $50 RG voucher which she didn't want, so she got me to trade her $ for it, since I'd ordered in a Miles Davis album (the one with "He Loved Him Madly" on the first side) - found out too late I couldn't get bonus points/discount/etc using the voucher. Bah.

Miles Davis - "Get Up With It"
All Saints - "The Remix Album"
Headless Chickens - "Body Blow"
& in the $2 singles bin :
Aqua - "Barbie Girl"
Wookie - "Battle"
TLC - "Waterfalls"
MJ Cole - "Sincere"
Daniel Bedingfield - "Gotta Get Thru This" & "If You're Not The One"
Shut Up And Dance - "Save It Till The Mourning After"
Princess Superstar - "Bad Babysitter"
Dimmer - "Evolution"
& my flatmate asked me to pick up Shihad's "Blue Light Disco" for her.

― Ess Kay (esskay), Monday, 26 May 2003 05:30 (twenty-two years ago)

good lord, i wish i had a copy of "evolution" by dimmer. its shayne's only good post-sjf song.

― di smith (lucylurex), Monday, 26 May 2003 06:14 (twenty-two years ago)

that i'm aware of.

― di smith (lucylurex), Monday, 26 May 2003 06:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Check it out, it does! Di, "Crystalator"'s pretty cool.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 26 May 2003 09:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I kinda like, um, the one with the video of him in the flat with the manky walls, & the one with the animated video. haven't heard the Doublehappys or Bored Games, tho.

― Ess Kay (esskay), Monday, 26 May 2003 16:18 (twenty-two years ago)

oh the doublehappys are the best band he was ever in. they're so rock and roll fun.

― di smith (lucylurex), Monday, 26 May 2003 21:52 (twenty-two years ago)

now i got "bad babysitter" stuck in my head. this is not going to turn into another lurve-cushions thread is it?

― ducklingmonster, Tuesday, 27 May 2003 00:01 (twenty-two years ago)

ew god no. i prefer my beings lipless.

― di smith (lucylurex), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 00:28 (twenty-two years ago)

TODAY I FINALLY GOT SOMETHING
"in on the kill taker" Fugazi
Also off ebay I payed for the Young Marble Giants' Testcard EP
and found on Gemm - Amy Linton/Stewart Anderson "the Lights are Out" 7", X-Ray Spex "Germ Free Adolescents" 7" and Royal Trux "Pound for Pound" LP.
No news on whether the Gemm stuff is there or not though, so I might not get that stuff.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 08:24 (twenty-two years ago)

While googling for stuff on Earwig, I found a guy who had a sale page last updated in 1999 which had Under My Skin I Am Laughing, the EP collection Past, & the single with "I Need Feel" on it - sent something to the email address, & the guy was still there! & so were the CDs! used paypal for the first time in five years & grabbed them - haha I have a CD Ned Raggett has been unable to find, the universe will fall apart or something!

― Ess Kay (esskay), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 11:22 (twenty-two years ago)

That'll teach that lovely friendly cunt!

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 11:25 (twenty-two years ago)

That is cool, though. I got the exact Fugazi record I was after today, and thanks to the stamp system it cost me $2. Not counting OPPORTUNITY COST but who cares, mostly that idea is useless!

&...does anyone ever see Kittie's "spit" on sale? I've been trying to buy it since 2000! It seems to be stolen from the library here.

― cuspidorian (cuspidorian), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 12:40 (twenty-two years ago)

There's loads more cheap most things, videos/Cds/clothes, but no more cheap vinyl than before. Less accessible tho which is kinda good, see E's VU live 1969 find probably, I don't see how else it stayed there. Kittie, were they a brief Riot Grrrly mainstream/punk girlband? Have you searched the RG website? I got those sides from FAST AND LOOSE again, last of my credit

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Monday, 9 February 2004 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

― etc, Monday, 16 February 2004 02:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Kittie, were they a brief Riot Grrrly mainstream/punk girlband? Have you searched the RG website?
They dressed punk/riot g/goth but they're definately Metal. They do that whole "BLOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAARRRRRRRR!" death metal vocals thing (I can't render it - those throaty yells). They're Canadian, they were all like 16years old the stuff I've heard and it blew me away. Yeah checked the RG site a few times, they've only had new copies.
I traded the All Saints album in at RG and got the Pure SHores single instead cause I thought the rest of the album was crap. Also got A Bongwater compilation CD and "off" by The Aethetics for $4, I'm too scared to put it on, I am worried about it's effect on me.

― Silly Sailor (Andrew Thames), Friday, 20 February 2004 04:02 (twenty-two years ago)

People who hate them seem to think they should go on about it, tho

― Silly Sailor (Andrew Thames), Friday, 20 February 2004 04:12 (twenty-two years ago)

i love going on about them too. the darkness are psychically in tune with me, either that or they are the perfect band. probably both.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Friday, 20 February 2004 05:53 (twenty-two years ago)

All the HOOHAH about them made me dig 'Sonic Temple' out, the only record I left at the old flat the insane guy who moved in next had taken out to look at. It's pretty good.

― Silly Sailor (Andrew Thames), Friday, 20 February 2004 06:01 (twenty-two years ago)
