Yeah, that's awesome. I love any show where they restrict phone use. I really do find that it can ruin a show, if the fucking assholes in front of you are blocking your view with one. I can't believe how inconsiderate those dicks are. If I want to take a quick photo almost all I think about is how to do it without disturbing the people behind me.

Ladies are just as guilty

Pardon me? Oh, I see, you think the terms "dicks" and "assholes" is gender specific, lol. I do not. Women can be dicks and assholes too.

Ice-T had a thought on the N word too and it's meaning towards other people.  Good song.

Anyone getting a bad vibe about this album? The description of it sounds like it could be a convoluted mess. My vault automatically renewed this morning. So I guess I ave to be in for this now. 

Nothing wows me so far. Going by the bits we’ve heard and the Vault announcement, he may be trying mash too many styles together. He’s best when there are strong ties to American roots music

He’s had pretty strong country influences for basically his whole career.

Laz and Blunderbuss are genre hopscotchers so I'd be surprised if BHR isn't as well. I'm not a huge fan of JW's solo work but he's an iconic trailblazer and I'm willing to follow his muse. I'd recently cancelled my Vault membership (been on board since the beginning) but re-up'd after today's announcement (dang you New Year's resolution to be more frugal w spending, LOL) 

Outside of my TMR vault subscription and the PJ vaults I allow myself to spend $60 a pay period on records. That's $120 a month. Or if there's a grail that I'm looking for I'll save up a couple/few paychecks worth of vinyl money to throw at it. It works out pretty well. 

That's a nice, healthy budget.  That would add 40-50 records a year to the old collection.  Not too bad at all.  My budget goes awry because I'm super anal about the record sleeves and outer sleeves.  The Groove Jimmy Hats I use are 35 bucks for 50 so that adds up... but they are so worth it.  

Which ones do you use? I consider myself a vinyl neat freak but I just get the inner sleeves from Mofi. So maybe I'm missing out on something. 

I use the MOFI or sleeve city for the inners, but it's the outers I'm talking about.  My biggest peeve were the sleeves that get bunched up on the shelves.  These are super tight, super thick and crystal clear.  You won't believe the difference in quality.  They have single and double (or combo pack).  They NEVER bunch.

I will definitely have to try some of these thanks! I know what you mean about sleeves getting bunched up/slipping off. I actually started putting my records in the sleeve wirh the record cover opening going in the sleeve first and the spine facing outward. That way when I pull a record off the shelf I'm pulling the sleeve toward me and therefore tighter on the record rather than where it can slip off. 

The only annoying thing about that is I have to take the record completely out of the sleeve to listen to it. So I'll definitely try a pack of these Groove ones to see how it goes. 

I actually store the record in the mofi, but outside the record jacket.  It sits behind the jacket within the outer sleeve.  I do that because I hate the ring wear and the damage caused by constantly opening the gatefold or whatever.  Good luck!  Let me know what you think of them.  

@mrussel1 I ordered some of the Jimmy Hats from Groove Vinyl and they are fantastic. Thanks again for the suggestion. I will use nothing but these going forward. They're sturdy, have a nice snug fit, and they are so clear. Also, I tried your tip about putting the Mofi behind the jacket and I really like that method as well now.

Cool, yeah... I always thought I had clear sleeves until I got those.  It was like going from a 90's 27" TV to a 65" HD.  Really makes the album art pop.  Expensive, but what the hell.  We spend a helluva lot of money on the record, might as well go all in.

They are ribbed,  which I find a little odd.

Another song from the new album. "Over and Over and Over." I think I like this one the best of what's been released so far.

I have an extra pair for the Kansas City show on 4/24 if anyone wants them. They're aisle seats, dead center. Sec 11 Row R. Face & fees is $181.

Nice. There were no listening parties near me.
