LOL! There was a guy the other day selling a copy of SP's Pisces Iscariot w/ a bonus 7" single (hand numbered, 2000 copies) for the princely sum of $1,999. I sent him a best offer of $100 and he laughed and said he wouldn't sell it for less than $1,500. I laughed and walked away.


Some people are just insane.

i am a target

that's because that single is a piece of music history. benny is just a limited run.

I think in time Benny Hall will be a piece of music history. I already think it is.

because of the actual music, or the scarcity?

i fail to see any comparison at all between an acoustic concert pearl jam did ten plus years into their career that got pressed onto a limited run vinyl and the first single from the band that changed the face of modern music (like them or not you can't argue with nirvana did to popular music).

Agreed.

Evacuation Rules

Also unlike Benny, there are a ton of fake copies out there which pushes the prices of authentic copies even higher.

as much as i love vinyl, i would never pay over $80 for ANY album

Fact of the matter is Love Buzz was also originally a limited edition hand numbered release. If that weren't only a 1,000 copies pressed now way would it be appreciating in value like it is.

The music. I think it was a brilliant show.

No, I agree completely. I love Nirvana still to this day. I just think that the 2hr plus show PJ performed in 2003 was the best they've ever done in my opinion. Let's say Benny Hall is an extension of that era of music that was birthed by bands like Nirvana and Soundgarden. Also, that's a crazy price for a 7"single. I don't care if there's only 1,000 out there or not. My first car didn't cost that much.

I had to sell it I needed the money. I got a great price for it too. Plus i have 4 more.

that love buzz 7' is sweet.
