“You can spot the vinyl addicts because after a while they get fed up with the...”

The thing that worries me about the Megaupload raid is that the government will be in possession of their servers. So how long until the Feds start going through those servers and trying to find everyone who has used Megaupload to download anything. God knows I’m guilty of this.
Farewell Megaupload
If only they would have taken Rapidshare instead.
As long as they don’t get Mediafire we’ll be ok.
From the stories I’ve read, its seems like a lot more was going on than just uploading copywritten materials.

New Unsane record this year? 2012 is going to be good. Quetzalcoatl may just have to come back just to save us from the grim fate of a bad music year in 2013.
I was wrong about the tour with the Melvins where they cover each others songs. It’s going to be a tour exclusive split where they cover each other.
Though they are coming to Charlotte April 26th.

Justin and I are going to write a book.
That’s all I am going to say for now.
I will say that it is about something we are pretty obsessed about.
