school choirs recording at TMR

[hawke000]

I think I'm officially hanging up the "Gotta get everything TMR," they have too many amazing ideas for the dollars in my pocket don't match.

[love_islander]

I sense a disturbance in the force that I have not felt for some time

[mojoryan]

This is fantastic. Couldn't be happier with TMR for doing this.

[nesguys]

Really cool of them. Sad to see my catalog completeness go by the wayside, but proud of them for doing this at the same time.

I wonder if they will release these in black as a normal release, maybe as a new series, or just do the split colors for the students. Either way, still pretty awesome. I bet some will go up for sale once they find out how much we will buy them for. Especially after they graduate and are poor college students...

I think this marks the official end of TMR completists. Assuming they use the same numbering system people won't be able to collect TMR catalog numbers anymore

That already happened a long time ago. Golden ticket event....TMR0924

I hope this isn't just for Nashville schools!

It is man and our school has no choir!

Not like either one of you are at school very much anyway.

No but they should spend more time there, at least enough time to learn to read good and stuff...

"School Choirs & Bands at Third Man: A Vinyl Recording Experience"

Choirs & Bands, meaning it's not just for choirs, it sounds like any school music program would qualify, ie. orchestra, marching band, jazz band, etc....


I must say it kills me to see that girl holding the record toward the end, I died a little inside...


and yeah, this is an awesome thing for TMR to do, more kids need to get into music, too much funding is cut from music and arts programs to be funneled into sports programs...

our school still has no musical talent

[jrfhoutx]

do you play in any music program in your school? do you play any instrument at all? if not then stfu about who does or does not have talent, now go back to doing your homework.

withdrawn, we have no music program, not talent

[jrfhoutx]

well then, I'm sorry and I feel sad for you. I never would have played an instrument had it not been for band in school (played sax in school, learned guitar on my own). wtf kind of school has absolutely no music programs at all? I know the education system has turned to crap in the last 15 years, but has school really gotten that bad that they are completely cutting out music programs?

I won't get into just how fucking ugly it is, but funding for the arts AND sports are the first things to go within federally funded schools thanks to that jackwagon W and his unfunded No School Left Behind bullshit. My wife is an educator at a school where my son also attends, and they have an outstanding arts program: if they were to slip according to bullshit guidelines that have been made a precedent, they too could lose it.

I am curious: why did you die just a little seeing her hold it?

that sucks, believe me I understand the horrors left behind in the wake of GWB, I live in Texas...

Why? fingerprints... I have some albums that have been boxed for the last 15 years or so that I've been going through and cleaning, and quite often the second you pull the record out of the sleeve, you can see the fingerprints... and it takes several washings to get them off completely, but even then sometimes they just never come out of the grooves...

Excellent!
Grim has an excellent system. I think there may either be a thread dedicated to it, or at the very least, it's mentioned somewhere on the boards.
I have some I desperately need to clean, and have been meaning to ask him about that very thing.

My condolences for the Texas Ed situation.

Hahaha y'all won't be able to get all the records now! Boohooo.
