I see Alice Donut are selling friggin fridge magnets.

I went to see Boris a while back and those people know how to market themselves, with limited edition t-shirts for £20 sterling and all this shit. People seemed pretty meh about the gig itself but they were lapping up the green vinyls and limited edition t-shirts.

I like a limited edition vinyl myself once in a while but this consumerism is getting out of hand.

People download so much shit for free these days, i guess bands are bringing out loads of limited edition stuff and merch to counter that. Makes sense for them.

Some folks would rather buy a t-shirt than buy an LP that they blagged off the net for nothing.

I know, I know, hyea.

 

[Jerry Twig]

That's a good point. Never even crossed my mind to be honest. But fridge magnets?

 

[Franco]

Yeah...a whole fridge would be way better.

a tartan one would have been deadly.

I have a few TMBG fridge magnets. They threw then into the package of a dvd I ordered from them. Also a cassette of their first album.
