  1. If you can wait a month we are releasing it as a SILVER disc and totally remastered. If most of you have the cd-r released by the band , the sound quality is pretty weak , we have done a killer job in making it sound better. I hope you guys will purchase it again. And yes I have signed the band officially.

     

    Sweet thanks for the heads up

  2. Try contacting the band through their myspace page, it looks like someone has logged in this month.

     

    Yes the singer was selling band CDR's a couple of years back. Great disc BTW.

     

    thanks everyone i'll check it out

     

    Sucks still no luck on this one !! can anyone help me out ? thanks in advance

  4. Guys,

     

    No need to fear the worst as Suncity Records has come to the rescue!!

     

    We will be releasing the whole "Last Call" disc in its full glory~~! There will be lyrics, liner notes, etc.. and of course will be pressed on a professional silver disc.

     

    We hope to have them released in no longer than 2 weeks. We have had some slight problems with the heavy compression on the tracks but we are now well on track in getting them ready for a near release.

     

    Hey Dave any news on when you'll be releasing this ?

  5. Crap, i want it but at that price they should get it out sooner....i dont pay much for my CDs, and when i pay $12+ i expect to get it quick (like the Kivel stuff! cept that one guys CD, whats his name again? Pete?)

     

    For reals. However I'm sensing based on everyone's comments that it will be well worth the wait :headbanger:

  6. Ordered my copy on July 17 so we're closing in on three weeks now and STILL no cd. At first he said it takes two weeks, in the second e-mail I sent.. he said four weeks. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOIN' ON HERE ??? !!

     

    Have you guys really been getting your copies ? I'm hoping this isn't some kind of scam :angry:

  7. If you like PBF, I suggest getting the Shameless CD's......all three sound just like PBF....because Steve Summers sings on all of them!

     

    Yeah thanks "Backstreet Anthems " is pretty good. I'll have to check out the rest of their discography

  8. This album got loads of play time in my stereo back when it first came out and then I sort of forgot about it. But I've now rediscovered it's rock appeal and it still kicks my ass !!.

    Anyone else here like PBF ? :headbanger:

  9. I hate to play the devil's advocate here, but... does anyone else see the irony in the above post? Lonnie selling cdrs (a bootleg's next of kin), was deemed appropriate (and a practice generally accepted here and on many other similiar online forums), only as long as the cdrs were delivered. They're cdrs... you may have received them, but ultimately the band gets screwed. Sure, this may sound old by now, but... whether it's a bootleg reissue one sells, or a cdr, it's all the same. I really found the above post ironic, and even a bit hypocritical to say the least.

     

    Bootleggin'... piracy, is a dirty gig... countless members of this board have been leading the anti-piracy crusade, and sadly- many of them- including myself, have taken heat for our fierce standing against piracy.

     

    I agree completely PJ..

    the problem with piracy is at the end the artist get screwed and it inhibits the growth of younger artists...sure record companies are dicks but......ultimately its always the artist who gets ripped off.

    I just got back from Peru last night and we went several times to the Polvo Azules a big market selling clothes food etc.... here were dozens of dozens of little stalls selling thousands upon thousands of bootlegged CDr albums of every genre you can imagine...I only saw two legit CD stores in Miraflores and they were pricey but other than that ,anywhere else just copies after copies after copies.....I don't see an end to Piracy so long as its profitable...especially in countries like that...

    In regards to the issue at hand I just feel sorry for everyone involved..but a story I have seen all too often on Ebay...someone gets in over their head and rips everyone off trying to climb out of it...not just music sellers there are sellers of all kinds of stuff this has happened to..sad,,very sad. Again the broken friendships are the worst aspect...

    Okay everyone, here's a lesson in how to get your ass kicked... and sorry for getting off-topic (and I also mean no disrespect to PJ or Relayrecords):

     

    Whether you agree with the concept or not, selling CDR copies of long-deleted bands DOES NOT mean the band gets screwed. To put it simply, the band gains 0% profit from Joe Adams selling a CDR to James Rix for $2. BUT, keep in mind, the band also gains 0% from James Rix not being able to find this long deleted CD anywhere, so he gives up in frustration and then James Rix has never heard the CD and everyone's in tears, holding cushions, pillows and breasts to their watery faces.

     

    Thank you for saying that !! I collect alot of rare and oop CDS/CDRS most are from disbanded hard rock/glam acts so anyone that says those bands are getting screwed over... needs to get their head checked. I support the music industry 100% and NEVER get burns from easy to find originals.

  10. I'm completely speechless over what's transpired recently with this guy. Although I didn't send him any funds for any of the Hurricane discs THANK GOD !!, I have purchased CDS/CDR from him before and he's never ripped me off. I sure hope everyone one get's their money back and that they throw the book at him once he's caught. :angry:

    Although I sympathize 100% with anyone who was taken for a ride on this deal... I do find a deeper, underlying lesson to be learned here about the prevalence of piracy, bootlegging, and all these Mickey Mouse labels springin' up, claiming to be the "saviors" of the scene by bringing you low-cost solutions to high-cost CDs via their home made reissues. If you dabble with this whole reissue scene which more often than not today, appears to have about as much legitimacy as a marriage proposal by Gene Simmons... you're bound to get "burned" (pun intended). How did that old sayin' go...? If you go to bed with dogs, you're bound to wake up with fleas?

     

    There's a reason why these guys did not approach me with an offer to preorder their discs, despite the fact I use numerous avenues to move significant amounts of cds daily. They know I'm a hardliner against anything even remotely fishy when it comes to reissues. I have a ton of respect for most of the people who placed these orders, but I cannot help but side with one of Dan's earlier comments here, that at least in some part... "wishful thinking" obscured clear judgments here on the part of these buyers.

     

    Most of us are far too easily fooled these days, as a result of this wishful thinking, into believing the claims of these frequent "reissues". Multi-million dollar labels, be it Sony records Japan, or Capitol USA who hold the rights to most of our favorite releases, would not even entertain the efforts of a Joe Blow from Wisconsin to aquire the rights for a few hundred dollars or maybe even a few grand, let alone provide them with the rights.

     

    Respectfully,

    PJ

     

    (Wow... 3 hrs viewin' this post, and I've still got about 5 pages left to read, lol... come to think of it, sorry for adding an entire page myself, hehehe).

     

    Hey man, I don't recall saying they were bootleg cds or cdrs (Most of them were long OOP) !! Why rail on me ?? besides I'm not screwing anyone over here like a certain somebody . So making me out to be the guilty party is flat out wrong. Especially when you don't know what you're talking about *SHRUGS*
