We're not sure how many were pressed, but there can't be many (we'll post on here when we sort it out)... to make things even more stupidly rare, we numbered 6 of the red vinyl records and split them between Hits and Misses and Rotate This.<br /><br />HERE'S THE CATCH...<br />The records are available right now at the stores, BUT you need to spend at least $25 at one of the shops to get to buy the red vinyl Cherry Beach EP. Yeah, we know record store day was last month, but screw Hallmark holidays! Also, we're a bit slow and didn't think of this until now.<br /><br />So, go buy some records... then ask them for a copy of the "red vinyl" Cherry Beach EP (which should be 6.99 and waiting for you behind the counter). First come, first served ...1 per customer, yadda yadda, gabba gabba hey!<br /><br />Hits and Misses: 799 Queen St West<br />Rotate This: 801 Queen Street West<br /><br />Love,<br />Career SuicideHillsidehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16697152890998693097noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920242453408357076.post-90457540595949285852011-04-30T08:33:00.000-07:002011-05-01T08:34:47.002-07:00Extra Culriculars<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-axQ2rl3nhUo/Tb18PEwBvnI/AAAAAAAAAHo/rXFhNh6HFkA/s1600/iggy%2B2.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 151px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-axQ2rl3nhUo/Tb18PEwBvnI/AAAAAAAAAHo/rXFhNh6HFkA/s400/iggy%2B2.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601770109933829746" border="0" /></a><br />ECW Press is putting out an amazing new book by Don Pyle called Trouble in the Camera Club.

Also the Ugly are playing, as well as a set of early Toronto punk covers played by the Sadies with a rotating cast of vocalists (including Martin from Career Suicide, Damian from Fucked Up, Nick from Brutal Knights, Chris from Burning Love, Caroline from Fifth Column and so on).<br /><br />If you're not from Toronto or willing to crawl out of your cave, but want a copy of the book, click <a href="http://troubleinthecameraclub.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">HERE</span></a><br /><br />The show details:<br /><br />Wednesday, May 4 @ 7pm<br />The Garrison<br />1197 Dundas St. W<br /><br /><a href="http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/215230_198771946824831_179880965380596_485720_1628209_n.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 454px; height: 720px;" src="http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/215230_198771946824831_179880965380596_485720_1628209_n.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>Hillsidehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16697152890998693097noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920242453408357076.post-44898847464869128952011-04-17T15:19:00.000-07:002011-04-17T17:16:09.307-07:00Cherry Beach<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KtRvIwtY5Bk/Tat58OXX-lI/AAAAAAAAAHI/3g6PwDzMedY/s1600/cherrybeach.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 196px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KtRvIwtY5Bk/Tat58OXX-lI/AAAAAAAAAHI/3g6PwDzMedY/s200/cherrybeach.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596701037493221970" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">We have a new record! <br /></span><br />The Cherry Beach EP is officially out on Dirtnap Records ...available as of this weekend.<br /><br />These songs were all recorded/mastered by Jon Drew (who is a straight-up audio magician and also worked with us on Attempted Suicide).
