inquiring minds want to know...

I don't know anything for certain, but I'm guessing Spoke?

I took a look at the poster included with No Idea 100: Redefiling Music and the picture for NIR 055 is the same artwork as NIR 010 Spoke - Visualize Industrial Collapse, except the color scheme is flipped so the background is black and the figures are white.

I seem to recall reading something (maybe from Var in an interview or something) that NIR-055 was supposed to be a Panthro UK United 13/Mock Orange split 10" but I don't remember now why it never came out.... something on Mock Orange's end IIRC. And they just decided to leave it empty.

God help me that I remember that if it's right.

Either that or the Fluffy Kitty box set, but I don't think it had anything to do with the mighty and sorely missed SPOKE.

I believe it was supposed to be the Sawtooth/3 Door Down split 7inch. I was gonna do a spoken word piece, and 3 Doors Down were gonna cover that spoken word piece.

It was coming down to the wire, and ultimately the bigwigs at the No Idea/Warner Brothers conglomerate couldn't pull the trigger. I don't have any hard feelings or anything, it IS a business, and they gotta run it.

Nothing but the best for all parties involved (named Sawtooth).

i actually have a test press of the wardance orange / puku13 record, but i think the number was reused for another record. i sorta think it's the HWM video thingy they were working on years ago...

Fay Wray "ILE"... NIR-061

Name your price!

thanks, but no. that was a right place, right time sorta deal that may be the crown jewel of my no idea collection...

Damn! I just won the lottery over here too so was thinking somewhere in the region of 50,000 dollars - no worries.

What was the full track listing for Panthro? And did Wardance Orange put anything else out, I never heard them?

For 50g's i'll sell you mine :)

I'm Not Drunk I Hate You & Mateo

were the PUKU13 songs

Wardance Orange put a self titled 7" and a split 7" w/ ex members of... i believe. RVA band

their songs were

Target Slips By & Comming To The Endtime

Jerm - i think someone on another board said that it (elusive #55) was supposed to be a 3xLP for close friends of the label...but it never was released. Only Varmageddon and his minons know for sure.

I'm still waiting for my Team buh-eer/Forgotten Consequences 7"

What is this? Everyone has the PUKU13 / Wardance Orange test pressing except Dave fest? Haha. Interesting it was only 2 tracks from each band; obviously have both those Panthro songs, but having them on weenil would be great. Ah well!

You can come over and listen/ look at mine as long as you wear rubber gloves.

Lolz. If you had that, I would have already stolen it from you!

I will make it worse. There are 2 or 3 versions of the test press. The place cutting it kept getting it wrong... and the guitars sounding weird.

After all that, we just gave up. At some point, later on, I remember Bryan saying something about how his guitar had a bad / broken pickup when they recorded those songs. It was not funny at the time, but it is now... ha!

I think we need the slapping forehead emoticon added for this response
