A Mailorder Update

Hello folks,

Here is an update about the mailorder situation. It looks like all the 7"s are fine, as are the Trashies LPs.

And, christ. I just realized for some reason, my website isn't working. It's probably something to do with my billing address changing or something. I don't know. This whole thing is a nightmare. Please, everyone, make sure you have renters insurance if you rent! It will hopefully help you if you're ever victim of a fire or burglary. We don't and hopefully the negligent guy is going to have to pay us to replace what we can.

Anyways, I'll get a list up soon of what I have available, including some stuff that was off the site including out of print Angry Angles. I really need to sell stuff and make some money to get us through this!

take care,

Down in Flames

We lost our duplex on Tuesday in this fire in Midtown Sacramento (our place is on the left). Lucky, no one was hurt but our upstairs neighbors lost their sweet kitty cat. The damage was extensive- we lost a ton of stuff, including clothes, our beds, guitars, some music, books, at least one computer, 2 stereos, furniture, food, and way too much other stuff. But we are extremely lucky that we got out with what we did and we are unharmed. I am letting you know that please hold off on buying anything from the Out of Order mailorder so I can inspect the damage- I think all the records are safe, but I did lose the Genetic Disorder Zines, Out of Order Zines and Comix. This is devastating. Make sure you don't have any fucking idiot, coked out, pyro neighbors. Here's the cause of the fire.

We are currently staying at a friends' house. If you see any cool places in Midtown Sacto (2 bedroom min preferred), please let us know as we are trying to get into a new home ASAP and be the least trouble to our most amazing hosts.

Thanks for all the kind words we've gotten. It's been hell getting through this, but I know we will.

thanks,

Record Stores and Fan-tastic New Records!!

On my trip to Oregon in August, we visited 2 record stores with the limited time we had. On the first day, we hit up House of Records in Eugene, Oregon. Eugene is a small college town, like Davis with way too much pride for their university's sports teams, but whatever. Anyways, after the nine or so hour drive to Eugene, we dropped stuff off at the hotel room, and make our rounds. After downing some okay pizza at a college pizzaria, we innocently passed House of Records, a small, converted house with, as the title says, records, tapes and CDs. Barely glancing an eye at those shiny discs, we zip to the vinyl selection, where some dude is blocking the punk/indie S-compilations section, listening to a huge stack of records with his portable turntable. Meganerd! Their vinyl section had a strange set up- a smaller shelf on the right had new releases, starting with indie/punk and merging into surf, rock and roll and then another set of genres. On the right was a tall self, alphabetically, but mixed with a bunch of different genres, new and used records of popular, and independent artists across the spectrum. This set-up basically formed a very narrow vinyl aisle, where Andrew and I were among close quarters with portable turntable guy, some dudes talking about a "limited" Radiohead LP that I wanted to punch, an aggressive vinyl seeker, and some shy guy who would occasionally venture in, and then duck out.

My stash from here includes the Holly Golightly Singles Collection on double LP, (an import from Damaged Goods!!), a used Country Teasers Satan is Real Again... LP and a Flock of Seagulls collection (gotta have "Modern Love is Automatic", "Telecommunication" and "It's not me talking".)

The next day, after the short drive to Portland, my #1 place of visit is Green Noise, now run by Ken of Dirtnap Records fame. It's a punk/indie specific store with a good selection of new vinyl, some used stuff, and CDs. My list was pretty long here, as I slapped down nearly $100 as I can't control myself in such a good store. Among favorites are the new Eat collection on Alternative Tentacles, Eater, Realtors collection on Rave Up, and holy crap so many more, I can't even remember them all. They also have a cool section of books, zines and comix! I haven't even had time to listen to all my records from here yet.

Which leads me to current music favs:

In no order...

1) Holly Golightly - Singles Collection (Damaged Goods)
2) The Eat - It's not the Eat, its the Humidity (AT)
3) Digital Leather - Blow Machine (FDH)
4) Barracudas - Through the Mysts of Time (Bomp)

Nerdy geek-out fun!

Thanks to Andrew and Keith for pointing out my FDH spelling error. Thanks dudes!
