#mayvinylchallenge by @jennn_erator Day 14: an album we had to wait for. This incredible album by @hopalongtheband just celebrated its tenth anniversary (!). I started streaming it a few years after its release because a student put “Tibetan Pop Stars” on a mix cd for me and you guys that song is everything. So I ordered this directly from the record label, and for a few months heard nothing. (No hate on the label—it’s been almost ten years, I’m sure much has changed since then!) I tried emailing customer service to no avail, so I went to Hop Along’s Facebook and told them what was going on. They were super responsive and it got to me pretty quickly after that, and a few messages into the reply chain I realized I wasn’t talking to a publicity team but to lead singer @francq__ themself! They said if the label didn’t get me one soon, they’d just put a copy in the mail for me themself. I think they said something about “I wish we were coming to your area on tour soon” and I was like “don’t come to houston it sucks.” Five years or so later they finally did come to Houston, GREAT show, highlight of my live music history. So I love you Hop Along and Frances, and I’m wishing a belated happy tenth birthday to my belated but much appreciated Get Disowned. #hopalong #francesquinlan #vinyl #vinyladay #lp #vinyloftheday #vinyligclub #vinyljunkie #vinylcommunity #vinylcollective #instavinyl #vinylgram #recordcollector #nowspinning https://www.instagram.com/p/CdioTFTu4E1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI= -- source link
