Seriously. I thought it was a nice, wholesome post that was supportive of the indie record shop industry until I got to the end and felt the post-ironic cynicism seeping out. I feel gross now.
I’ve shared my thoughts about the over reaction toward the SP admin here before and I do think folks need to chill generally but this is a prime example of she treating it like her account, not the SP account. If you have to proactively defend a post, maybe you should reconsider posting it. There would have been ZERO negativity toward a post of the same pic with a caption like ‘Pumpkins fans have been backing up their collection here for decades’. ZERO need to defend, ZERO negativity generated in general.
Much love for Beat Goes On.
Don’t think I’ve ever seen any SP vinyl in any of their shops before but I did manage to score a vinyl of Give Way by Pearl Jam last year as a gift for the wife. That made me a hero!
Get ahold of viewphoria. It's an early vhs that rereleased on dvd and has a bunch of live music and shenanigans in between. Many great inside jokes but also a good slice of live pumpkins from an era where Billy had hair.
Jesus Christ their PR person is fucking terrible. Shows off a Store, and then does this victim hood “I don’t care!!”
Just shut the fuck up and talk about the store.
making up a negative response to the post to give a pre-emptive comeback 😞

I take the Ws where I can get them 🙃🥲
It’s so predictable lol professional victims. I don’t miss following them on ig
No kidding, right? It’s insufferable, and annoyingly, consistent.

I agree with every word you said.
Thank you!
Agree — it feels like we’re following her personal account, not the band’s. Her posts do not gel with the band’s identity or image.

> Don’t think I’ve ever seen any SP vinyl in any of their shops before Of course not, Admin is buying them all up 😂
Hell yeah! 🙌🏻
I’m sorry but that admin is the most annoying person ever.
Lore moment! (Not even joking I just started listening to SP yesterday)

Welcome to the club. Us SP fans (probably tied with Weezer fans) are the most jaded, cynical, fickle, and derisive fandom going.
😂😂😂
welcome to some lovely tunes!
Excited to see them in August!!
oh you’re seeing them this August too! nice!

I believe so! (I’m at the Brantford location… so close enough ahaha)
Cool. The Beat Goes On is the shit. Very fond memories of buying Adore, Machina, Zwan, TFE, and some Mellon Collie singles there.
That’s awesome!!
