i have gone through 2 copies of BTCS vinyl. the first one was used and had some undisclosed wear. i then got my hands on a sealed copy. after holding on to it for a week, i decided to play it. it was great; however because there was doubt that the sound came from the original master and instead came from the CD master, i decided to part ways with it while it still had value (rumours abound about DMB re-releases on vinyl)... i do miss it though and can't wait for those re-releases to come!

@thetruemrsnickjonas6 "random but if I do recall correctly I lost my virginity to DMB lol...random (=" umm... you use the word recall when you're talking about something that happened a while ago... judging by your account name and the way you write your comments you're probably anywhere from 12 to 14 MAYBE 15 so you shouldn't have even had sex by now... and if you did it probably happened within a week before you commented... kids these days... anyway, great song, sounds amazing

Hi there, thx for ur comment, this is the michell gyrodec, its one of the turntables from my collection. at the time this video was recorded i had some parts taken off to get refurbished so it isn't actually the complete deck. If you're into gyrodecs be sure to get the version with the DC motor in case you're thinking of second hands, tonearm is a modified rega, cartridge is a sumiko bps. happy turntable hunting!

Very True...I Just picked up the double vinyl of Big Whiskey about 2 weeks ago. And it sounds outstanding for just a regular weight 140 gram pressing, and on an old consumer grade JVC 'table like the one I've got in my room, w/an AT P-Mount cart. I can only imagine what it'd sound like on a 'table like the one seen in this here vid. Haha! You are most envied!

mrhoffame commented on 13 Nov 2009

Man!!!! The only thing that could be more expensive than that record.....is that turntable lol!! Great stuff!!!! I am looking at investing in a high end turntalbe. What kind is that? How much does it run? Have you been happy with it? You can send a personal message if you don't want to to post it publically. Thanks

BigK250 commented on 10 Mar 2009

Wow, absolutely beautiful song. I have been hunting for this vinyl for a long time. It has to be my favorite DMB album out of all of them. Hard to find nowadays on vinyl. Great sound, great song, great band. 5 Stars. Thank you for sharing.

Ben Heintz commented on 25 Dec 2010

my favorite song of all time. And it means a lot coming from someone who enjoys music of every genre.... techno, 70s 80s 90s rock, country, heavy metal... almost everything... This song is PARAMOUNT.

gtrflwr commented on 22 Nov 2009

sweet table setup, and love the vinyl :) haha music's a lot more fun that way, along with the quality control boost, obviously. thanks for posting it this way :D

sam66muso commented on 31 Oct 2010

Is this a Michell Gyrodec and is this the turntable that you are using now. How does it compare with the Rega P7 and Clearaudio turntables?

coreythomas862009 commented on 15 Jul 2011

This is probably my all-time favorite DMB song. I'd so much like to get this album on vinyl, but it goes for way too much.

Marcel T commented on 22 Apr 2012

Can anyone tell me exactly why does it go for such a high price nowadays at ebay/ musicstack? (the vinyl obviously)

olanzip commented on 26 Mar 2010

Now that's a nice video. Can you please share what amps and speakers you were using in this video? Thanks.

Proxima Centauri commented on 13 Sep 2013

I know this comment is 4 years old, but maybe try discogs dot com? It's great for hunting vinyl records.

The description is outdated, actually. Big Whiskey And The Groogrux King was released on vinyl as well.

Chris Musto commented on 24 Jun 2012

At least you fans on PA know how to keep the energy flowing. Saw the show in Bristow, VA and the fans were so weak you could actually see the loss of energy from the band. Short show thanks to VA's awful policy to end the shows by 10:45pm. Think yourselves lucky, other states, I'll never see Dave in VA again.

wllstl commented on 19 Dec 2012

the Bristow show was a disappointment...especially when I saw the killer setlist from the next night in VA Beach...lol...still riding my DMB high from the shows this past weekend in Cville...what an amazing weekend!

Fodera VW Classic

udawggy commented on 15 Sep 2006

This was in the tourbus outside the venue in Newcastle, UK. I had about 10min with the bass and it's generous owner before giving it back and hitting the stage with my $125 bass. I could've played this particular Fodera it for 24hours straight. I borrowed our guitarists little battery powered VOX amp and the owner taped me without me knowing on his cell phone. High tech shite!

goldmember123 commented on 29 Oct 2006

Fuck me sideways. Fuck man. Scratch the Fodera. I wanted one so all the vic tunes i play sound authentic plus the monarch series has some nice features. At first I wanted to buy a Warwick Thumb-4 but I kind of realized its not exactly a bass meant for soloing, which is the majority of what I do. Ill probably end up going with Tobias. Unless you've got any better suggestions.

limeyamos commented on 23 Apr 2008

Vox battery powered practice amp with a cell phone recording. And it still sounds as good as every other fodera I've ever heard. Follow that dream bass, brother. It may be more expensive than my dream bass, but less rare. I want a 4-string fretted left-handed Wal. You're thinking, "Good luck with that!"

BillFurlong commented on 12 Mar 2007

surprisingly i was able to find my used fodera new standard monarch for 2000. the guy emailed me a year later and asked me if id sell it back to him. poor guy.. The full featured Monarchs do sound amazing though..

goldmember123 commented on 14 Nov 2006

Are you talking the BXP series, which is the budgeted one of the Cirrus model, or the Regular Cirrus-4, cuz the regular one is more than 2,000 by about 100-200 dollars.

Durf McAllister commented on 23 Nov 2009

Why the HELL do they make this bass so damn hard to find? I mean, I'll never be able to afford it but still it would be nice if it wasn't impossible to purchase.

udawggy commented on 20 Aug 2006

Firstly- That's no "thousand dollar bass". Look it up and weep, dumbass. Secondly- I for sure didn't get to keep it. I had my 10 min and that was that.

goldmember123 commented on 13 Nov 2006

I was looking at one of those the other day. Its really smooth, and easy to play, but doesnt have all the features I want. I dunno...Im stuck :-/

udawggy commented on 19 Mar 2008

a Vox battery operated practice amp on a tour bus in the lounge/kitchen area. Captured on my friend Funky Hobbits Cell phone. Low tech here baby!
