If you don't have one then you must not want one bad.
Who says I want one at all?

normally people don't complain about not having things they don't want.
For example have you ever heard some one say: "DAMN, I still don't have AIDs."

I still like the Document series and the SunRays are cool.
Like anything JW related. Love the Box of Wonders.
I still collect TMR, just not ALL of them. Not too many Blue Series lately that have struck me.

Quality is an issue more now than ever. Tri's don't Look Tri, splits don't look split. Thin vinyl.

I wish the Vault packages were all 180gm, hell I wish everything was 180gm.
Time will tell how this all shakes out. There was a bunch of killer tri's in the beginning not so many lately.

I still like the tri's, don't get me wrong, just not many lately.

Just waiting to see what happens next.

Wondering if they will do anything in Nashville ever again .... Been to long ! Hopefully a good show or two before Bonnaroo

I agree with the "thin" issue. My Duane tri is thicker compared to the newer tri's (eg dough rollers)
In regards to the how the colors are split up, I think the new one's are less even because of how fast they are made.

I did a side by side comparison of the Kiwanuka tri to the 5678s tri. Even the naked eye can detect a difference in thickness. Oh well, tris are still cool.

Yep. They should make them thicker if they are going to be hauling them around in the RRS. Stand up to the heat better
