    been dragging this heart along
    slowly moving along the sands
    in the midst of misguided mischief
    the maze of confusion is winning

    like a cat who got away
    pushing forward against the grain
    feral and untamed roaming the alley
    the nails drawn perpetually

    the cloudiness consuming me
    a darkness so familiar, i cannot see

    a gentleness creeps inside my heart
    fighting and writhing this entire time
    a calmness from afar washes onto the shore
    drenching this feline in salty whispers

    and even though we avoid getting wet
    the giant cat will always win
    with a looming stare into the soul
    a redirection of thought, a remold

    and licking the paws there comes a purr
    deep inside, a happiness stirs
    a massage that transcends time and space
    in and out of consciousness

    a cat will dance in a sun bathe

    Hi!!!!It’s possible to say me the difference that exists between the siamese dream in vinyl of 93 and the reissue of 2007. The numbers matrix are the same. Thanks!!![/quote:3ah0cltd]

    quite easy, actually. in 1993, only purple, peach, and red variations existed in the US. in the UK, there was a black pressing.

    in 2007, out of nowhere (in my recollection), came this orange hybrid. also, a US pressing on black.

    if you have a black pressing from the US, it’s the repressing.

    i know the artwork is some sort of crumbled and weathered rock. purple staining (organic) with some oxidation staining as well. i think it’s shale. probably never know!

    yep, i remember steve’s site. was the inspiration behind http://www.pumpkinography.com (which was never backed up – thank god).

    welcome! looking forward to seeing your collection and glad you found us!

    i don’t think the order number will match the number on the record. (what’s the point?)

    note that they probably didn’t start at order number 1 either, for aegea: these are order numbers of the zuzu’s webshop. all previous orders from the zuzu’s website must’ve gotten a number too. i guess they started at 1 when the webshop opened.
    (if your order for the first pressing had a number around 250, they can’t have started at 1: only 200 copies of the first pressing were for sale online.)[/quote:2nhqloja]

    cool. thanks. your point about it being a zuzu’s product got me to thinking and i was pretty bummed that there were only around 250 or so online transactions. pretty lame!

    AEGEA by WPC: A Series of Experimental Recordings from 2007
    $59.95

    A single, limited edition copy of AEGEA on double-vinyl; hand collated, numbered, and signed by the artist. Limited to a FIRST edition press of 250 (copies 1-250), the first 50 of which have been manufactured on aqua-colored vinyl.[/quote:13u2b7uq]

    i may have read that the same as you did as well, but my order number was sequential (around the 250 mark – i guess i just made it). it just makes me think the #’d copies will go with the #’d order’s, um, numbers. but then again, that would be asking A LOT to pull off for whomever is actually fulfilling this order. i fully expect a damaged or warped, green, double A sided 7" copy that plays a demo version of tarantula.

    at work now and before. it was hilarious to witness the 36 minute delay. i expected nothing less! but also annoying to put work aside and have to sit there and wait for whoever to get their shit together.

    bought a copy of both editions. my order # is quite high, so i’m pretty sure i won’t be getting aqua, limited to the 50 first people who are lucky to hit refresh exactly 36 minutes after an announcement.

    kinda lame, but exciting as a collector. been collecting other bands’ vinyl in the interim. cheap, too.

    don’t want silence
    but it’s what i give
    i want you to listen
    to my every word
    and if you would like to talk
    wait your turn
    i’m always ready
    but i need some more time
    i want to break down walls
    as i build more fences
    i’m a walking contradiction
    because i’m afraid
    i’ve never been so insecure
    and i take it out of context
    so it can always serve me
    i ask for positive affirmation
    and i receive
    but i disregard
    i’d rather focus on negatives
    in a dark room with the red tint
    it’s where i dwell
    dipping the paper
    and watching the moments dry
    drying, withering, dying
    i do everything that you do
    but i say it’s different
    i guess i’m just better than you
    and have all the answers
    thanks for the memories
    and all those sleepless nights
    when you sat and listened
    and we cried together
    and all the support you’ve given
    it means nothing now
    because i’m okay
    you got me where i needed to be
    you are tossed away like ashes
    the fuel burned to keep the warmth
    but it’s summer now
    i’m selfish
    deal with it

    don’t let me stand in your way
    nothing can hurt you now
    nothing can stop you now

    all good to those who support but won’t participate. even participating myself is a big deal, for me, but i’m willing to do it.

    anyway, this is going to take a bit of time to come to fruition. i’ve secured a producer who will film some hardcore fans at the upcoming 8/30/2014 concert. there will be plenty of time to record at zuzu’s and that is what will happen.

    please let me know, however, if you’d like to contribute. i don’t, personally, even know what i would say. i suppose that is the beauty of getting in front of a camera and to just start talking.

    anyway, that’s the latest. lots of superfans in front of the camera @ zuzus. i can’t do this, and many of you cannot either, but i think differing backgrounds and stories add spice to the project.

    please submit if you are interested.

    this is kind of off topic, but you also have to cut off your own thoughts or opinions of yourself (the weird ones that are even just a little negative, such as "i’m never gonna stop procrastinating/being lazy"), because all they are are thoughts. they can be discarded the second you have them. you can have a different one, a more positive one, like "i’m getting more & more productive every day" or something similar to that.[/quote:3pfhgpit]

    agreed. the power of positive thinking is amazing.

    pumpkins seeds is a cool boot. :)

    i haven’t REALLY sat down and listened. i still need to buy TAFH reissue for a cheap price. this is okay though, because i know i STILL have more pumpkins to discover!

    i was just wondering where that claim came from, that this was in hollywood.
    since i am the contributor, that must’ve come from me.

    and then i found this post:

    got this delabel promo tape:
    [/quote:2x93jepr]
    appears to contain what’s on the tin: a press conference, given on 20 october 1993. i guess it happened in hollywood, from one of billy’s answers.
    journalists from all over the world are present and ask questions (including journalists from finland, australia and brazil, for example).
    billy does most of the talking. james says a little something here and there. not sure (yet) if d’arcy or jimmy are there. (still listening.)

    i did some quick googling, but couldn’t find any references to this press conference.[/quote:2x93jepr]

    so, it must be somewhere in the interview…
    i can’t be bothered to listen to it again right now. maybe another time.[/quote:2x93jepr]

    yeah, he says hollywood in the interview.

    here’s the other tape i’ve got transferred: [url:1wqaaryp]http://www.spfreaks.com/default.aspx?page=COLLDETAILS&item=1059[/url:1wqaaryp]

    it’s a press conference with billy and james. the press is from all over the world, including south america, europe and australia.
    i split the whole thing into tracks, as that seemed more practical than one huge file per tape side.
    it’s still being uploaded right now, but both a flac and an mp3 version should appear here: [url:1wqaaryp]http://www.mediafire.com/?oe5005nj8euw6[/url:1wqaaryp]

    feel free to share this elsewhere if you want to (dunno, on zomb or lma or summin’).[/quote:1wqaaryp]
    spfreaks entry:

    The contributor notes the press conference takes place in Hollywood, CA.[/quote:1wqaaryp]

    i don’t remember where i got that. (or did someone else contribute that fact?)
    it is not unlikely to have been in hollywood as they were playing two shows there the next two days (21 and 22 october): http://www.splra.org/wiki/index.php?title=Tsp1993
    the days before, they had two shows in san francisco.

    so yeah, hollywood seems like a good guess, but i’m not sure. it could have been anywhere.

    would anyone be able to track down more information about this press conference (full of internationals)? maybe it’s mentioned somewhere else? (put your freak hat on, spfreaks! and freak out!)[/quote:1wqaaryp]

    :lol:

    this is certainly not my forte. my guess is the interview was held somewhere in LA. hollywood is just a portion of LA, and LA is freaking huge. makes sense to refer to hollywood even though you’re not really there – it’s more of an colloquialism than a city.

    do you need the interview in one long track? might be easier to put on youtube. (dunno, really, i never upload things to youtube.) or can you merge the separate tracks yourself?[/quote:3mwm6f1i]

    yeah, i did this, but had crossfades (on accident) between each track. so their answers beginning and ending were crossfaded with the interviewer asking questions. it was super lame. i did another join of the files without the crossfades and am uploading now. i don’t know if you can put links on youtube descriptions? i guess i’ll try.
