The last two Shellac Live in Japan CDs that I've seen sold have each gone for $500.

People out there want the -real- thing, and not a bootleg. I've got a real one. Anyone wanna give me $500 for it? I'm thinking maybe I should sell it, since I don't really need it, and since I never listen to it.

That petdance.com site lists all the Friends of Shellac who got a record, but I don't see the name Chris Hall on there. Must be an oversight, right?

I knew someone that had two with no names circled on them, I guess they had been given one and their girlfriend had been given one.
He had broken up with the g/f by that time and she never took it, he offered to let me have it when he saw how excited I was to see and hear it (this was right when it came out) but I refused till he called them and asked them if it would be ok, which he never did.
It just felt wrong to take it, even though it probably wasn't since the girl just left it and didn't want it and the dude did have two.
I dubbed it on cassette, though.

Whoever bought it will likely never spin it.

You're right, I know. I can always hope.

My wife and I each have a copy, but the sleeves were destroyed in the flood. We would never sell anyway.

I picked up a copy in Sister Ray in Soho. Was cheap though.

Sister Ray is the first place I thought of when I read Surfrider's description! Haven't been there in years though. Didn't they get bought by Selectadisc?

nah, other way round. they moved into the selectadisc shop though.

Stop by anytime I'm home and we'll set you up.

I still play mine all the time. It's my 3rd fave Shellac lp.

Maybe I should record it on to a cd, just in case.

Word has it they are working on a 'enemies of Shellac' record.
Mainly feedback and fart noises.

One of Minneapolis' little record stores has these babies for $20 a pop.
