Worthwhile purchases or a waste of money?
In the past 2 months I’ve bought a total of 6 records, the 4 pictured and 2 pre-orders that haven’t come yet.
the collection right now:
Set Your Goals – Mutiny! LP – brown
Four Year Strong – Rise Or Die Trying LP – purple/yellow
Fireworks – Adventure, Nostalgia, and Robbery 7″ – yellow/green
The Wonder Years – Won’t Be Pathetic Forever 7″ – black
pre-orders:
Set Your Goals – Reset 7″ – mint green
The Wonder Years/All Or Nothing – Distances 7″ – white w/ red and blue splatter
I don’t know if this is a worthwhile collection or if I’m just wasting my money. I stopped buying band t-shirts over a year ago because I have so many t-shirts and the $15 band tees weren’t getting worn any more than all my 50-cent thrift store tees, so buying them was clearly a waste. I don’t have shirts for any of the bands I own vinyls of because I’ve only gotten into most of them in the past year, and I wanted to support them by buying something. I’m also really into album art, so it’s cool having it full size. So far, so good. But here’s the catch…i don’t own a record player. So I’ve bought 6 records and I don’t have anything to play them on. Now that seems like a waste.

looks like you need to get yourself a record player ma’am. also i’m the same way i have some many band tees and i don’t wear half of them and i do get a whole lot more use out of my thrift store clothes. also vinyl is worth collecting. it’s usually cheaper that cd’s and it’s awesome to see the album artwork so big. one thing to not get sucked into is buying multiple colors of the same vinyl. i have rise or die trying on two different colors of vinyl and now i regret it. i only need one. i thought it would be cool for collection sake but now i just think it was a waste of money. only vinyl that i have multiple of that was worth it was wont be pathetic forever because i got a three pack for $10.
