    What's the big deal with vinyl anyway? I mean 20 or so years ago people would have laughed at you for wanting to own an album on vinyl instead of on compact disc.

    I guess it's the everything old is new again craze like those goddawful 1980s fashions which are back. :rolleyes: :p

    Ive never stopped playing vinyl.........
    Ive never owned a cd stereo, Ive had a cd player in my car since 2003....
    and the cd drive on my puter that I hardly use..........
    LOL..........Still have my stereo from the 80's and still using it.....ahhhh they just dont build things to last anymore like they use too..
    At least these days u can buy vinyl again..

    Carissa's were like a sparkly purple pair ( kinda like Lurex) they were so cool, and Carlys were about a size girls 12 and they were a stressed Maroon colour...

    Thats like one of our friends bought us a clock radio for a wedding pressie in 1982, last yr I decided to update it cos its rather yuck....anyway I bought this little sanyo job from Kmart.....anyway it lasted about 3 weeks before it stopped working....anyway I couldnt return it to the store cos they were closed for major renovations and were shut for about 4 or 5 mths..
    After they re-opened I was looking for the clock and couldnt find where I put it...:(
    About a month ago I found it....the years warranty is now out of date..

    And yes Im still using the clock from 1982.... :p

  • Does anyone know if or where the into the wild vinyl will be available in Australia? I get the impression from other threads and sites that the public sale will also be the limited edition that was sold through 10club. Am very disapointed that I missed out on the presale and am very keen to get my hands on a copy of it. Thanks to anyone who can offer advice.

    Welcome to our little haven :D

    Can't really give you a definite answer but if I was you I'd send an email or phone either Red Eye Records or Utopia (both in Sydney) or Rare Records in Melbourne. All 3 of them have a website and can be found via Google. I've picked up a few Pearl Jam vinyls from Utopia and I'm pretty sure you csn request certain items. It might be a good idea to ask them to get it in just to make sure.

    Good luck :)

    I bet Helzbelz bought it..........he buys heaps of sets like that and then he breaks them up and re-sells seperately...

    Yeah $32 each isnt bad..
