I'd recommend getting there around 10:30 or so, that's usually when I've gotten there, sometimes 11. I wish I could make it there in time for this, I'll be moving up that way a week or so later. At least I'll be up that way for the album release and record store day.

Yeah, Bowling Green is not very far away. I'm probably between 3 and 4 hours away.

Yeah, it's nice and close. Right now I'm 7 hours away and I've made the drive a bunch of times. But Bowling Green is only 45min to an hour away. I can't wait to be that close. I wonder how the "random" tricolor release will work now...

What is the random tri-color release I have not heard about this? I will be out if town that day anyways so it really does not matter just have not heard about it.

In the last modblast chat Jack said he was going to give ebay flippers a headache and make it random. He didn't clarify any further but he went on to say that ebay flippers are idiots and they should get a real job.

he also clarified that he isn't mad at people who sell things on ebay, he told the people who do it for a living to get a life...

Yeah, there is one there. I know him and refuse to talk to him cause he is a flipper. I always see tricolors come up for sale from him.
Wait, I just noticed the "lol", so I guess I missed the joke. Oh well, I'm not in Bowling Green yet, but soon, either way, I've had lengthy discussions on how I couldn't be a flipper, I just don't have it in me. But I do have a "friend" in Bowling Green and he is a flipper. It pisses me off so much. I want to expose his secret to the Bens and hopefully they can refuse to sell him records.

Perhaps this means its the end of Nashville tricolor release for people in line.
Maybe random people in line get tris or all of them go to online orders (Amen)

I'd rather see all the tri-colors inserted into mail order stuff. I'd be prone to order more 45s in what would feel like a lottery :-)
I get that going to TMR is an experience and something they want to create a draw to but this flipper problem has gotten way out of hand which
sux for those of us who don't live a short drive to TMR.
But I do have faith in the Ben's to come up with something creative to solve this problem and still maintain a draw to TMR. After all, they are smarter than the average bears :-)

How about just making them all tri-colors? Seems like the easiest way is to increase the supply available.

Jack the price up a little and be done with it. Make at least 500 tri-colors available online to the first pre-order people then the supply equals demand and takes flippers out of the equation. This is a pretty easy problem to solve if a business truly wants to solve it.

But he also said he didn't want everyone to have a tri. He wanted the "pattern" to be limited.
