    lastest vinyl i've purchases was yesterday. led zeppelin's - the songs remains the same 4lp box set. i might have to break out my old fisher price vintage record player to play this gem.


    Make sure your styllus is in good condition............
    I wish I could get my hands on some really good thick plastic sleeves....
    I picked up some when In Melb last but they are a bit thin..
    Ive got some old ones from the 70's and 80's and they are nice and thick and have a kinda crimped edges......nice and tough..

    you can find the regular mylar and paper sleeves at quite a few different online sites, im sure some of them ship international. i have a bunch of those, but i was looking for something a little more substancial to protect my more prized vinyls. the mylar sleeves are just a little flimsy.

    i think these outa do the trick, they look pretty sturdy. ill post on this thread once they arrive. im stoked but i really want ones for my 45s

    IKE is heading for my front door right now so im trying to get all my collectible stuff in protective cases in case it all has to be thrown in the car and trucked outa here!

    I just keep in plastic sleeves next to my record player. I don't want to go to too much trouble to get them out when I want to spin them.

    well, i guess you dont live in the south, perhaps australia?...IKE is a category 4 hurricane sitting over cuba right now! i live in the florida keys and my island is right in its projected path...

    its nice to have your valubles in protective cases so when the time comes you can load em up in the car without worries about them getting smashed... thats why ive been looking for rigid sleeves for my vinyls...the mylar ones just dont cut it...

    I realised what IKE was this morning.................my husband was telling telling about a hurricane that was heading towards Florida.......
    I said is that called IKE...........I think he thought it was strange I knew that seeing he had just heard that on the news and I had been asleep...
    OMG that must be so scary having to be prepared like that..I guess it makes it easier tho if u have to leave in a rush...
    I hope it fizzles out and doesnt cause any destruction...:)

    What Island are u on then?
    Yeah Im Tasmania/Australia

    Demetrious! I bought mine off the Led Zep site and have played it a few times.......Sort of like when it was first released except no pot smoke or 10 teenagers hanging out getting drunk! :) I literally wore out the album back when I was 15/16. Will probably do the same with this one..........

    Hi, this is the story that appeared in the paper on the 5th..
    http://www.news.com.au/mercury/story/0,22884,24297738-921,00.html
    Stuart Gibson has shot some some awesome footage of shipsterns..
    He shot an awesome pic of Dustin Hollick that kinda put him on the map with his photography, was the cover of tracks from memory...Its floating around here somewhere.....I will see if I can find it .......
    Shipsterns was a well kept secret until the location got blabbed..:(
    Have u checked any of the clips out on youtube u should..



    Oh yeah that was terrible about that glassing attack, apparently she might lose her sight in that eye..


    p.s click the view pics on the left side at the bottom of page............ :)

    Ok I've started framing my PJ albums with the $10 album frames from Michaels. But No Code won't fit as it's a bit wider than the standard record case. Anyone else have this problem and know of an easy solution?

    so my latest idea to frame my no-code record opened up is this...

    make the framing job look like a sash window and the muntins (wiki those words~) can cover the folds and the gap on the panels. i think it would look awesome since the polaroids almost look like tiny windows themselves.

    any thoughts?

    I have mine nicely framed and hanging in my dining room. This is the first year we are having a Christmas celebration at our house (since we just moved in). I am very excited to serve my Christmas dinner in my Pearl Jam-themed dining room! Too bad they don't make those Hallmark ornaments of the band. They would go perfectly with my home decor! Haha.
