glockose Posted July 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 THANK YOU SIR. I also Apoligize to you. We might not see eye to eye on everything but I CAN understand were your coming from and I think some of your work is outstanding. If you ever think I could help with something just send me a Pm I have looked over you list of releases and see a lot of stuff that was left out that to ME would have been kool to include with some of them. But maybe like with Defcon things couldn't be worked out and I understand that for sure. If you like I could give some examples maybe they are thing you just over looked but could ad to a 2nd pressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 After reading the first post over and over, I would swear that glockose was ripping Sam for selling boots. Anyone else get the same impression? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob M. Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 That completely confused me and since when has 80sMetalCollector been known as Sam? I can't keep up with this soap opera. It's more confusing than The O.C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 80's Metal Collector has always been Sam. He has been kicked off these message boards on numerous occasions but just keeps changing his user name. I know, it's not easy keeping up with all Sam's alias's but that is just the way he operates. One thing he will never do is leave he's real name and that’s for obvious reasons!! Jacob, wait for the abusive reply LOL!!!

Kind regards Dave Suncity Records wow Dave - you just can't keep your big Aussie mouth shut can you? Always gotta have the last word. Coming from someone who I got booted off eBay and using different aliases to bid on stuff , you really have no room to talk Dave. Give it a rest and try to at least get another release out before October......JEEZ. One more thing Dave , you just lost your FOURTH band to Retrospect Records. ....but I'll make it publicly known just as soon as my contract arrives in the mail..... Yep , my business ethics must really suck for 4 bands to decline SunCity and sign with RR ...... How is that happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockposer Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 I got confused after the 2nd goal which was about the 3rd reply down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Sam, If it's the band that I'm thinking of, the least you can do is show the band some respect by silver pressing the disc. If you do, I will wish you all the best with it!! In my humble opinion, they will sell well over 1000 copies. We are also announcing the signing on Monday of a band that you (Retrospect Records) have been talking to, no big deal just the band liked our terms on this occasion rather the Retrospect's. Each band that is approached by Suncity & Retrospect are faced with the dilemma of taking Retrospect's better royalty rate and a more quick fire release date or take Suncity's option of a 16 page booklet, liner notes, pictures, newly produced art-work, proper promotion, advertising and basically selling more units through our distributors. Even you have said it on many occasions that you only sell 50-100 units of most of your albums. Is that a fair evaluation Sam? I think it is. I have always said well done when you release a good product ie. Mariah, Manila Thrills, etc one because I know the bands are getting paid and two because they are professionally silver pressed. Hey, I was great friends with Joe Dolan and I was even Retrospect Records's first ever customer. Kind regards Dave Suncity Records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocularok Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Wow...a sincere & humble post...a welcome change to this thread. It would be nice if others (& I include myself in this) could try to do more of the same without the childish name calling. And Dave, how about an update regarding Dirty Rhythm, Heavens' Wish, & Sweet Teaze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrospect Records Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 I'm too new in the bizz to really evaluate what the lifespan of a product is. I can tell you that there are some cd's I wish I'd done a thousand of , and some I am EXTREMELY glad I didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vish Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 yeah im bamboozled as well. Glockose if sarcasm was your intention, kudos mate .. You've just had Sam reveal all his dirty illegal secrets ,and further more even apologize to you Honestly dont know why im getting into this web, But heck why is this legal/illegal working of RR flooding these forums either? Wouldnt pm's or court be a better option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrospect Records Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 dirty illegal secrets? I dunno about that. I made a couple of dumb errors when initially taking over the label , but those days are long gone and so should this discussion.... later.
