CD Baby

[mikekn]

Damn, I knew I shouldn't have visited that website...

I was searching for an artist I had heard on Pandora and followed a link to her CD on CD Baby. I thought I'd be ok just adding her to my substantial wish list, but before I knew it I had a shopping cart full and was trying to find more CDs so I could take advantage of their $5 sale. In the end I got it down to just 7 CDs - 3 of which are part of the $5 sale.

THE ENDLESS: Grumpy Ghost
THE ENDLESS: ...and i'm the queen of the moon
TREEPHORT: ...And the Streets will Run Red with the Blood of the Non-Believers
THE ENDLESS: the Republic of Heaven
TRUE MARGRIT: Seaworthy
HANNAH FURY: Subterfuge
MARC GUNN & THE DUBLINERS' TABBY CATS: Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers

I"m such a victim :/

Lemme know how "Irish Drinking Songs For Cats" actually is...

[mikekn]

I've heard one of the songs already (on a compilation CD), so I have high hope for it.

The Endless sends me Christmas CDs every year.

[mikekn]

Sweet! And how did you get to be on that Christmas card list?

[notshakespeare.livejournal.com]

Adriana Roze is on the Well. I'm not sure if everyone that bought the CD that year got on the Christmas list or if it was special for the Well folks.

Yes, I have ...and i'm the queen of the moon

[mikekn]

Actually, I meant the Christmas CD from 2003. It has a track I'd like to hear :)

[notshakespeare.livejournal.com]

Yes, I have "I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas"

[mikekn]

Just visited their website. Do you have the 2003 CD? I'd love to get an MP3 of the first track.

The Endless - cool band, IIRC.
Anyway, I feel your pain, but an occasional splurge is a healthy thing.

[mikekn]

They'd been on my wish list for a little while, so I figured it was time (plus their two EPs were in the $5 sale).

I only wish my splurging was occasional :/ (nothing dangerous, but definitely more then I should)

Every time I go to cdbaby I have the same problem :)

They've got the best ship notices!

[mikekn]

Yeah :)

A sample for folks who've not yet given in to temptation:
"Your CDs have been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CDs and polished them to make
sure they were in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CDs into the finest gold-lined box that
money can buy."
