Thanks. Left Insane sounds like a really good mix of instrumental stuff like Black Flag (later stuff), Descendents, ALL & Chemical People.

Anyone knows anything about Ascendants where Ray Cooper and Tony Lombardo played between Milo Goes To Coledge and I Don´t Want To Grow Up?

Yeah, they only did 1 or 2 shows under that name, but essentially Ray, and Tony wanted to keep going even though Milo was in school and Bill was playing with Black Flag. So they kept things flying as often as they could. Milo would occassionally come back from school and play a show as DESCENDENTS, sometimes even as a 5 piece with Frank, but this too was not often. Flyers exist of ASCENDENTS but nothing was recorded formally (or informally I think) and the songs were the same as DESCENDENTS, but with some tunes that wound up on Grow Up. It did happen.

Hopefully, it is an Allroy watch so I can have an ALL and Descendents watch.

No ALLROY watch just yet. Maybe in the future? I guess we haven't talked about it.

You can probably find Everything Sucks on orange or purple still if you look around. The old SST color vinyl releases will cost you a pretty penny these days on eBay.
I also ordered the one on Fat you recommended. You have cost me over $100 recently young man.
If I keep it up then you will run out of money and can't move away!
I do have some level of control on my spending habits. And I have already sunk more into the new house than my equity my current house so I will be moving next Spring/Summer.

My "Everything Sux" orange translucent vinyl showed up today. Last week my package with "Cool to Be You" on clear vinyl showed up. This band is breaking my bank account lately.

I'm gonna give it a shot tomorrow. I won't cry if I miss out because I'm sure the demand is gonna be big and it's tough when you're trying to purchase versus other people.
what I'm still bumming about is not getting those DENTS vans shoes a while back.
at this point, I'd buy kid sizes just to own a pair.

I think the Descendents could make a lot of $ on non recordings merchandise. They could be the punk rock marketing machine like Kiss. Hell, I bought a watch a year or so ago, and never wore it. I am sure I would do the same with other stuff. I think of it as collectibles and things to show off my love for the band. Sorta like my Steelers collection of stuff.

Believe it or not we walk a fine line, and turn down a lot of things. Me, I love merch, so I'm always pushing to do stuff that I (as a fan) would like.

I think they/you do a great job of keeping the stuff within the realm of what fans would actually want from the band. Kudos!

I'll explain. "Views" are not posts. "Replies" would be the number of posts. You need to add 1 to the number of replies, because the initial post does not count as a "reply". Get it?

Thanks Greg. Remember that I am first and foremost a fan of the band, but I also have a pretty great job working with them. It is very satisfying to think of something that I could really see myself wanting and bam we can make it happen. The key holders? I use them for school, and I have a huge wad of keys. I work and need keys, but I can't stand having them all look the same. I got some key covers from the hardware store and they died quickly. Same thing with hipster zombie head ones. Our key covers are tough as shit and serve a working man's purpose. Silly I know but I honestly just needed some for myself.
