They will buy it just to have it. It's a collectible, not something they actually listen to.

There are two kinds of vinyl collectors, the first kind hoards them, dusts them every day and keeps them in a controlled humidity room. The second kind collects the weirdest and cheapest issues, and rips them to FLAC and shares online because they have some $5 unknown white label cut of some performance of an obscure artist.

The second kind rules. We need more of those crazy lunatics.

lol they make you pay extra to beat people up (er, sorry, "mosh") at a NIN show now? Damn man, Reznor really did sell out.

I'm taking the piss here -- NIN is based af.

My seats had a very clear view of the pit. Hilariously only about a dozen or so people where "moshing" or whatever the fuck they call it. Occasionally they'd bump into someone who wasnt into it and you can tell the person was very annoyed.

Also very bizarre when you think about how much it costs. When I look at those videos of classic concerts from the 80s and 90s I imagine those tickets where cheap as hell and the mosh pits where the result of low iq riff raff. Maybe thats why its so small now, not a lot of low iq types able to shell out $1000+ for 2 hours of entertainment.
 
Can someone explain the obsession olds have with LANG specific Calendars? They are always massive sellers whenever corporate sends us any. We get olds calling for them as soon as August hits. Pics incase you don't know what a Lang Calendar is.

Old people tend to like realistic paintings of twee scenes, I suppose they can understand the art, marvel at technical ability, and it has a very safe feeling like nothing bad is going to happen. It’s also incredibly boring. I actually thought this was MidJourney at first glance, kind of explains why the olds are drawn to AI art products.

Idk exactly but calendars were always kinda like the adult version of an itunes giftcard. It's one of those things that you can buy for someone if you can't think of anything else and be fairly sure they will appreciate it. You still have to put enough thought into it to buy one that fits their interests so it's not completely devoid of effort and even if they don't use it then it's still 12/13/24/51 however many high quality images of something they like.
 

This dude is a faggot who takes it up the booty from other men, this goes with most male LP hoarders and their ✡️ records. Change my mind.
