People that collect records know the frustration of wanting to find that special release/pressing/limited cover from a band they collect. It's seems to be a never ending search for that peice of the puzzle you desperately need to feel content with your collection. That was me until recently for nearly two and half years and to me, that was too long but I read about guys who have been looking for 10+ plus years to even get the chance of finding some of the stuff they collect so I guess I can't complain.
This Miles Away release was at the merch table at Sike Your Mind back in 2007/2008 it would have been. I wasn't at the show for whatever reason and that turned into trying to hunt it down through every means possible with no luck until one day, I randomly googled it and after searching heaps of result pages, it came up on a dude's webpage where he had posted it recently. After some emails back and forth to Germany it turned out to be, I sent through some money and 2 weeks later it was on my doorstep. What makes this better isn't the fact I also love Entourage, it's the note he put inside the record, a good touch after looking for something for so long.
Thrice - At Guitar Centre (#1176/2000)
2 acoustic tracks from their Guitar Centre session. Sounds awesome. Still the best band around.
Midnight Oil - Blue Sky Mining
Had to have a copy of this 1990 masterpeice.
