I am here in St Paul ... just got back from the party at the Mad Blonde's (I'm too lazy to do the link thing at the moment)

On the way up here, I stopped at that CD store that I mentioned a month or two back. I shouldn't have. I can't afford to be here at all much less stop at a CD store.

I have talked in the past about The Fabulous Poodles. A favorite band of mine (and of Chasophonic's too I found out tonight).

Their best of CD has been out of print for some time. Their other LPs have never been released on CD.

The store had a copy.

I bought it.

There is a very good chance, if things go the way I have heard on Ebay, that I may be able to pay for my trip with this. I feel a little bad about it, like I am ripping off someone somewhere, but ... Ebay here I come.

brotha, we do what we must.
I think they would applaud your enterprising spirit. after all, it's all for the music.

I give my fans outright permission to sell autographed things on eBay if ever they need the cash. My stance: I've already gotten my $5 out of it.

I have burned all their stuff to CD and offer a 2 disc set to anyone who emails me about the website and the availability of their stuff. This is with the permission of the band. I sell it for 5 bucks (which means I make an average of about 80 cents, and lose money when I send the overseas). The lead singers reaction was "I never made any money off the sale of our records, you shouldn't either, so 5 bucks is fine, just send me one". Half the band have them now, if the other two ever get back in contact with me I'll send them copies too.

But this is different somehow.

No bids so far
