ZoSoRose Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) I am dumb. I attended that big Detroit concert, last month. Diana Ross, Eminem, Big Sean, Slum Village, Jellyroll, Jack White, and more. The Jack White performance blew me TF away and I have been on a massive JW and White Stripes kick, lately. Jack owns a record label as I am sure most of you know, Third Man Records, and they have a plant and store in Detroit right by where the concert was. They have a truck that sells records and at the concert they had "hyper exclusive" as they called them pressings of three albums. Only 100 each were made and only for this event- Elephant by the White Stripes (red splatter) Greatest Hits by The White Stripes (red) Fear of the Dawn by Jack White (blue splatter) I stupidly passed on Elephant because it was $100 double album. I opted for the blue splatter Fear of the Dawn at $50. I am not big into color variants and stuff, but the color pattern is like a work of art on this thing. It is super cool, and a beautiful record and I am happy to have it but fuck I have been thinking about that Elephant nonstop. At only 100 copies of each album, they have gotten very expensive online, and I know they will all dry up, soon. I have been obsessing over Elephant because the red splatter pattern is genuinely the most gorgeous record I have ever seen. It is an art piece. That is one of the most significant rock albums of the 2000s, and this is now the rarest edition of it, and I was at the show, so FUCK IT. I just ordered the last one on eBay. By far the most I have ever spent on an album. Fuck me, but I had to have it. Moral of the story... Don't pass up on the rare shit when you can get it for face value...

I think the Elephant vinyl is worth the 100$, though it's not cheap. congrats for getting the last one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent way more than the $100 they originally were, but it is what it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
