138 VC/SH Records Being Auctioned at Limited Pressing (bidding starts at 99 cents, Metallica,Limbeck,Foxy Shazam)

138 Auctions End Today! Take a look, you might find at least a few things that will stoke you out.

Each and every week, I have been posting a hundred plus records on Limited Pressing. Every auction starts at 99 cents. In addition to a majority of the Vinyl Collective/Suburban Home vinyl back-catalog, I have been digging out records that were once carried in our store. This week, I pulled out some records by Metallica, Limbeck/Motion City Soundtrack, Mars Volta, Foxy Shazam, Propagandhi, Postal Service, Screeching Weasel, TheTakers, Minus the Bear test pressing, and much, much more.

Take a look at the list, you might be surprised at what is being offered. While some records end up at pretty high prices, there are always lots of records available for 99 cents to a couple bucks. The auctions end on TODAY/TONIGHT!

With less than 2 weeks from our 15th Anniversary weekend, I figured I would put together a post with everything going on over the long weekend. I am very excited to have a beer with each and every one of you. I am so thankful that so many of you have decided to fly into Colorado from all parts of the United States. I guarantee a fantastic weekend.

Thursday, September 9th at Sputnik (7 South Broadway)
My good friend, Mike Howard, spins records every Thursday night at Sputnik. Since there are a handful of folks coming into town on Thursday, September 9th, I will be joining Mike that night to spin records. I will play some of my favorite Suburban Home tracks, as well some of my favorite Punk, Country, Indie, Pop, and Gangsta Rap. Sputnik has incredible food, a full bar, and some tasty beers (on top and in bottles/cans). Everyone is welcome to hang out early, but we won’t be playing music til around 10pm.

Saturday, September 11th at The Lobby (22nd and Arapahoe) at 10am – HANGOVER BRUNCH
Charles Sinden is a good buddy of mine and happens to be one of my favorite Chefs at one of my favorite restaurants, The Lobby. Charles has agreed to put together a special brunch complete with bloody mary’s for all who make it out. I know that 10 am is early, but it will be worth it and gives everyone an excuse to get out of bed in time for our Beer Tour.

Saturday, September 11th starting at noon – Craft Beer/Whiskey Distillery tour RESERVE A BUS SPOT
Every year for our Anniversary weekend, we get a lot of out of towners. It was mentioned this year that we should consider putting together a Craft brewery tour for those folks and that is exactly what is happening. A 55 passenger bus has been chartered, but due to the high expense of the bus, spots are being sold. Things will start at noon at Great Divide brewery which is across the street from The Lobby. Great Divide actually agreed to open up 2 hours early for our crew and will be giving a tour of the brewery. From Great Divide, we will visit Wynkoop which isn’t a household name (yet), but make some of the greatest beers. From The Wynkoop, we will be going to Stranahans Colorado Whiskey Distillery. Stranahans will only be able to give 30 people a tour since that is their cap so we will let the out of towners have first shot at this. From Stranahans, we will visit Oskar Blues in Longmont. From Oskar Blues, we will had to Avery in Boulder. I will be giving reminders to everyone to pace themselves. Especially out of towners need to be warned that drinking a mile high is not like drinking at sea level. And the beers at most of these places (and the whiskey) are all of higher ABVs. The tour will go from noon to 7pm. (I recommend a disco nap before the show on Saturday night)

Sunday, September 12th at 2pm at Berkeley park (46th and Tennyson) – BBQ and Washer’s Tournament
Every year, we wrap up the weekend with a BBQ and everyone is invited. Since the schedule is a bit different than last year, I will be asking our artists to bring their guitars so that we could have some acoustic performances while we eat and drink. Bring a side dish or some meat and some beer; there will be a grill, and I will be securing the picnic area so there will be plenty of seating. We always do a washer’s tournament so bring your A game! And last year, someone brought Stump which could be one of the greatest games ever. Come hang out with all of us and we can recount all the things that happened over the weekend.

Sunday, September 12th at Surfside 7 (Ft Collins) – Tim Barry
Jon Snodgrass recently took over the Surfside 7 and has been getting so many incredible artists to play here. On the Sunday after most of our festivities, Tim Barry will be playing an intimate set at the Surfside. I’m not yet sure that I will be making it out for this show, but if you can, I highly recommend it.

If you are in need of a hotel, remember that we have a special rate secured at Towne Place Suites which is the closest hotel to 3 Kings. Use this link to book your room (but do so soon).

The rules: Don’t take too long to think about it. Fifteen albums you’ve heard that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes. Tag fifteen friends, including me, because I’m interested in seeing what albums my friends choose. To do this, go to your Notes tab on your profile page, paste rules in a new note, cast your fifteen picks, and tag people in the note.

120 VC/SH Records on Auction at Limited Pressing (Copyrights,Revival Tour almost OOP)

I’ve got 120 auctions ending today. I guarantee there will be lots of great deals and I can assure you that there are plenty of incredible records to pick up.

A few things to keep an eye out are the Copyrights “Learn the Hard Way” which is very close to being out of print. I have interpunk sending 25 of their 28 copies to the band and I have probably 6 copies left. I don’t plan to repress this record so get one while you can. Same goes for the Revival Tour LP which I only have a few of. Good luck getting those as well as records by Mars Volta, Pinhead Gunpowder, Tim Barry, Frank Turner, Chad Price, Minus the Bear, and lots more.

Take a look, I bet you find something that would fit in nicely with your collection.

Suburban Home 15th Anniversary Beer Tour Bus Spot Reservation – $20.00

While I still have a few more details to iron out, I have just booked the Charter Bus for Suburban Home Records 15th Annivesary Craft Beer Tour. While the folks at Colorado Charter Lines could not confirm that we will be getting the bus in the above photograph, the bus will look a lot like this. The bus seats 55 people and I am hoping that most of you will consider joining us. Due to the high expense of renting the bus, the cost of getting a seat on the bus will be $20 per person. I know, that is very pricey, but not only will you be safely driven to 4 breweries and 1 distillery, our friends at the Wynkoop will be supplying beers for all to drink during the beer tour.

Here is a breakdown of how things will be laid out:

• Hangover Brunch at 10am (yes, I know that is early) at the Lobby
• Great Divide Brewery
• Wynkoop Brewery
• Oskar Blues Brewery
• Avery Brewery
• Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey Distillery

I am still ironing out the times for each place and trying to get each brewery/distillery to give us a tour. I will warn everyone about a hundred times to please watch how much they drink. Especially you out of towners, drinking in Denver is a lot different than drinking in a town with little to no elevation. Being a mile high makes drinking have that much more of an affect on you. I really hope people don’t get so drunk they are time traveling during our show that night.

Warnings aside, this is going to be an amazing day. We will be doing the tour from around noon to 6pm and I am working on having the Bus take folks back to the hotel that most of us are staying at. I think I will have Avery in boulder be our last stop so that some people can nap back to Denver. Expect final details soon, but please reserve your spot now. I would hate to see you miss out on such a great time.

120 VC/SH Records on Auction at Limited Pressing (Copyrights,Revival Tour almost OOP)

So I learned a valuable lesson this past Saturday (the day that I typically list/relist auctions). I figured it would be a good idea to relist my auctions after having done a Beer Crawl for Cancer, on crawl that had me going to 6 bars between 1pm and 7pm. Just like it is never a good idea to shop auction sites while under the influence of alcohol, you should also not list auctions while inebriated. I didn’t fuck things up too badly, but I listed like 30 records twice. I ended a number of those auctions, but left a bunch that already had bids on both records. My mistake could be your benefit when some of those records end for lower than they normally do.

A few things to keep an eye out are the Copyrights “Learn the Hard Way” which is very close to being out of print. I have interpunk sending 25 of their 28 copies to the band and I have probably 6 copies left. I don’t plan to repress this record so get one while you can. Same goes for the Revival Tour LP which I only have a few of. Good luck getting those as well as records by Mars Volta, Pinhead Gunpowder, Tim Barry, Frank Turner, Chad Price, Minus the Bear, and lots more.

131 SH/VC Records for Auction at Limited Pressing (starting at 99cents)

My weekly auctions end throughout the day today. Take a look, you might find something you didn’t know I would be listing. And you will definitely find some killer deals.

This last week, I dug out some records that have yet to be listed on our weekly auctions. There are some really great records like the Metallica quadruple LP boxset for And Justice for All, found a copy of the Pains at Being Pure at Heart LP on white vinyl, posted the latest Mars Volta dbl LP (as well as another Frances the Mute triple LP), as well as records by Off With Their Heads, Paramore, Dr Dre, Q and Not U, Pixies, Hot Water Music, Hot Snakes, Pelican, Pearl Jam, In the Red, and lots more in addition to the records we have been posting every week.

I can’t say this enough. Take a look at the list 1. because there are over a hundred great records, and 2. lots of the records end at really low prices (some even at the starting price of 99 cents). You can get some great records at great prices and we all know how nice that is with how terrible the economy is.

Today, I am very proud to announce that Lizzie Huffman is joining our 15th Anniversary line up. This will be Lizzie’s first time to Denver so please help us give her a warm welcome during the celebrations. At the bottom of this post, I have put a streaming player so you can listen to the 10″ we released for Lizzie Huffman. I am really excited, this will actually be my first time seeing her play.

Tickets are on sale now at 3 Kings Tavern’s website.

So here is what there is to know about Suburban Home’s 15th Anniversary:

There will be a number of artists showing off their goods down in the basement of 3 Kings over the entire weekend. I will be posting an announcement of all the artists involved tomorrow.

Saturday, September 11th during the day, we are organizing a Hangover Brunch at the Lobby and then a brewery tour that will more than likely include Great Divide, Wynkoop, Oskar Blues, Avery, and maybe Upslope. Details to be announced soon.

Sunday, September 12th BBQ/Washers Tournament/Acoustic Sets at The Park – we’ll cook food, drink beer, play washers (and stump), and we’ll have some of the Suburban Home family doing an old-fashioned hootenanny. More than likely we will do things at Berkeley Park, but we are working out the details.

If you are from out of town, make sure you book your tickets soon. I just bought tickets from Seattle to Denver and was surprised at how nice the prices were. I put together a discounted rate at the same hotel we had lost year (Towne Place Suites). Book TownPlace Suites Denver for Suburban Home Records’ 15th Anniversary [special rate]

We promise an incredible time and hope you can all make it out to what should be a very special celebration.
