If you are looking for rare stuff....., THE 60 POST RULE IS GONE

[doris orange]

i've been away from the MP board for quite a while. haven't been a regular since the build-up to mp3(i went by the name Vinyl Junkies back then if any of you may recall), but have been anticipating the new album a great deal. i'm glad it's goin to be MP instead of woz solo. i've been a fan since 'saint joe on the schoolbus,' but have never had a chance to see them (they haven't been to michigan in years). i am seeing them tomorrow though!!!!

anywho, that's my story...

due to my absence from the board, i wasn't even aware that all those mp3 era demos and alt. takes were available. if anyone would be willing to share that would be awesome.
i have the mp3 demos (the one with mr fisher, arrow thru the sky, etc.) that leaked out a couple of years before mp3 and that's where my collection ends (as far as rarities are concerned.)

thank you!!!

How large is the collection?
I use box.net for files. You get 1GB free.
Then you can link to files and have collaborators and viewers.
Just a suggestion.

I will see you guys at Crossroads in Huntsville, AL. It has been a long time since 2000. i remeber following you guys around from 1997-2000 WOW that was good days. I remeber a lot of shows in Nashville, TN. and a special KDF studio show where me and my mom were asked back stage and helped with loading pizza in the van. I will be right in front WOZ watch out for a bald Army guy. This is going to be great like old times.

There's an awful lot of rare stuff out there, and I've been looking for it for a while. What do I have to do to get my hands on some of that stuff?

The b-sides, rarities, alternate takes, I want everything you got!

Help me out!

I don't have anything to swap except for Zog Bogbean and the Sex & Candy single.

Hello, fellow MP fans. I have been posting on these boards under many names (headchange_bass, blasto2236, and boognish, probably) for many years.

I used to have every b-side and the MP3 demos right around the time period before MP3 was officially released. Unfortunately a hard drive crash caused me to lose all of this.

I have nothing rare to trade, as I lost all of it, but if anyone would be willing to help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Seems to be everyone's story "I've not been on in a while..." Ditto here.

Anyway. It's annoying me that I've only got a partial version of the song Bang Bang. It just kinda cuts off near the end while he's going Oh Oh, etc. Also, the quality is not superb , although it does seem like it is a studio track. I suppose I could just tack on a fade out so it's not quite so annoying when I'm casually listening, but I feel like I used to have a full version of this baby somewhere, so it bugs me.

Does anyone know whether a good quality and/or complete studio-esque version of this song is in existence? (I'm recalling when I thought I had a scratched up version of the Death of a Cheerleader demo, only to find out that apparently everyone's demo clicks).

I wish MP would just go ahead and release that B-sides and rarities album one of these decades! Put me out of my misery.

Thanks!

I am fairly new to this board and here is my MP story:
I was introduced to Marcy Playground by my older brother Erik and the first song I heard by them was A Cloak of Elvenkind which my brother was playing on guitar... I was only 11 years old.. I really liked the song so I listened to them sing it and the more I listened the more of their stuff and I fell in love! Opium and America and Deadly Handsome Man soon became favorites. I am now 18 and MP inspired me to learn guitar and John inspired me to write music.. I of course love all of their music now and can't wait for more.

I unfortunately have never been to a live show and am hoping for at least 1 more tour so I can see them.. I would love some punch and pie.

*Brings out several pies and a punch bowl* I haven't served punch & pie in a loooooong time

Hey all.

I've been kicking around this board for a while and haven't ever asked for the rare stuff. If someone could please help me out I'd really appreciate it!

I've been a Marcy Playground fan since of course S&C and have purchased all the official releases and have some rare stuff here and there (UP & DOWN is my favorite tune); but need some more!

I have no idea what the etiquette is these days (last I heard there was a Gmail but then someone changed the password, and Up and Down was the lost piece of the MP3 demo), but if you don't have Zog Bogbean it's a wonderful record that everyone should listen to.

[teenagerebel]

This is really dead but I'm posting anyway.
Marcy Playground is my alltimefavorite band EVER and I couldn't go to their gig at an SD bar last summer because I'm not 21. That was the dumbest thing that has ever happened to me and now I cry everyday because of it....
