  Miracle Faith Telethon of Lurve

I just got the CD of this today. I had an illegal cassette copy but now I have a nice crisp legal CD.

Ahhh.

Love ghost riders. I sing it at work and people look at me saying "But you hate country?" and I say "I'm singing the alt-rock version." Then my workmates tell me with singing like mine I should give up my day job.

I have an idea for Telethon II. The wacky fan letter has only appeared on mp3.com and the cassette of Berry Vest - why not put it on Telethon II?

By the way... where did you find it on CD?
and for how much? (if you don't mind me asking)

It has been there for about 2 years. I have been slowly saving up to the point where I could afford the $NZ125 ($US50)

They may have Let's Spin - I think.

One of the first cds I ever bought. Not that it's the best TST project to ever come out, it just came out around the same time I bought my first cd player. ) I never bought DFBB on cd because my tape played just fine and I had a tape player in my car then. Arrrgggh!!!

yeah, why spend the extra money?


I passed up on OE the first time I saw it. I only had enough money for one CD......so I went with something else. I can't even remember what I bought, that's how good it was. A few years ago I finally got OE on cassette, and last year bought a sealed copy off ebay (I'm not going to say what I spent). Now I don't hesitate, if it's there, I get it.

Ebay is a rip off! any one who buys from ebay is stooopid.

No money goes to the artist, so why even buy it?

FYI big guy, the artist already got the money when the item was originally sold-

  Ebay stupid?

Wait a minute there, Mr. Donna Nietche. If what you said was not tongue-firmly-implanted-in-cheek, I'm going to take exception. If you understand just a little how to play the game you can snap up some incredible deals on items that just simply aren't available anywhere else.

I got a copy of Neverhood game for about $35. (Not even the Neverhood people can get the game now.) I picked up a Wonderama CD for $10. I've picked up Adam Again, Choir, and Tom Howard items for very reasonable prices. And it doesn't just apply to music. Just establish a price in your head you absolutely won't go over, and I guarantee you'll never get taken. You may not get a huge percentage of what you bid on, but that's the price of caution.

Really, I have been very blessed by the things my wife has been able to get from Ebay, all at prices at or below what I was willing to pay.

I AM sorry the band doesn't get dime one from Ebay. It's a good Biblical concept - the worker is worthy of his wages. But believe me, it WON'T reduce my $ commitment to the band. If any when the re-issues come out, I look forward with great anticipation - they are brand new and often have bonus items anyway.

I don't like to pay (and I won't) the huge prices that some CDs (ie DFBB) but an auction does show what people ARE willing to spend (even if it's not me )
so in that sense ebay is very fair. I don't like it, but it's really far from being a rip-off.
