Where can I find Some Kind of Nothingness CD2?
 

Due to the fact that I am jobless & skint I have only just got round to ordering the Some Kind of Nothingness & Postcards From A Young Man single bundles. I have ordered the PFAYM single bundle from Townsend no problem, but cannot find SKON CD2 anywhere - have ordered the vinyl & CD1, but really want CD2 as well to complete the set & also to hear the B-side.

Anyone have any ideas where I can get this from? I have even checked Ebay but had no joy. Its like it never existed, but I guess it does exist...??!! There must be a CD2 lying around some where with my name on! And surely the track Slow Reflections/Strange Delays does exist.

Please help!

Thats a tough one. I heard even charity/cancer shops were rejecting it on the grounds of being absolutely shite.

I have a spare copy of CD 2 you can have for free if you like. PM me back if interested! :D

I'll sell you mine if you want. I don't know why I got it in the first place. It hasn't even been played.

Didn't you even bother to listen to the b-side?

we haven't listened to any of the singles or bsides - they might even be unopened. we got the vinyl too. force of habit.

Nope. I've don't think I've bothered listening to their B-Sides since LB. I'm just not interested.

That's devotion for ya

Shame, the b-sides are rather lovely! :D

I don't know about you Suicide_Riot_Junk, but I think I'd opt for The Gutless Wonder's offer.

:up: Yep sounds like a plan!

Thanks for the help on this everyone! And I have sent you a PM Gutless Wonder.

Got your PM. Will get that sent off to you as soon as I can! :D

That's lovely of ya. You got your PFAYM singles yet? Bit weird you'd end up with two SKONs and none of PFAYM for ages.

Re Lydia

Do you mind me asking why you bought the singles &/or vinyl if you weren't interested in the b-sides as it probably took as much effort to order them as it would to listen to the CDs?

I've loads of friends who aren't interested in b-sides, remixes etc but then again they don't waste their money on anything other than the LP which is their choice.

Personally my biggest regret with JFPL was their decision not to release any proper singles, as once the excitement of the LP has worn off, I know I've got another LP's worth of material on the subsequent single releases.

By the way, I thought LB's B-Sides were some of the best!

Ha, I didn't see that what Gutless said. I obviously wouldn't have said otherwise.

And in response to the other question (too hard to quote on my phone), it's not like I buy the single with the intention of never listening to them. I mean to but never do. I think it's mainly force of habit. When I first got into the Manics they didn't release any singles for quite a while, so now I feel like I should buy new stuff if it's available, even though I'm not really into them anymore. I'll probably stop because it's a waste of money when I don't listen to it.

I bought the two lots of SKON intentionally! :whistle: But see, it has worked out in someone else's favour! :D Still no Postcards singles but my second Haven CD arrived, all the way from Horwood, PA, United States! (Someone remind me which state PA stands for again!)

PA= Pennsylvania

That's what I thought but just wanted to check. Who knew Haven made it Stateside? :p :lol:

I don't know who Haven are, except that it is the name of a TV show.

A British indie band originally from Cornwall I think. Made a couple of albums but then sadly split. I really like them.

CD is in an envelope and ready to go! :D

Did you get the CD then SRJ?

SRJ - Your inbox is full mate so can't PM you! I trust you received the CD ok and like the b-side! :D

does anyone else have a copy of this to sell / give away?

Wish I still had the Haven singles for you, I had the first four but I gave them to charity.

I bought the Til The End single but I think I stupidly got rid of it during a clear out. Wish I'd kept it now! :( Same with Tommy & The Chauffeurs' Kids Chorus EP (If anyone has that knocking around that they'd be prepared to part with I would be VERY interested! :D).

Bump! Still searching for a copy of this but so far nothing

I'm going into Spillers this week, I'll take a look in the shop for you. They don't always have everything on their website so there is a possibility it is in the shop. I'll let you know sometime in the week.

thank you! :)

Megan, so sorry forgot all about this. I'll be in Spillers for sure again this week as I have tickets to pick up so will take a look for you.

Don't worry about it, I'm in London on the 29th so I'll probably find a copy there :) thanks anyway!

Did you find a copy after?

Nope :(

Spillers have offered to try and order it as they never had any in stock either. They said they can't guarantee it but are going to get back to me in about a week. As soon as I hear anything I'll let you know.

Megan, Spillers have got back to me already, and it seems it's not available any more to order. I suggest you get it from Townsend before it is gone from there as well. Sorry!

Townsend don't have any :( thanks for trying though :)

That's strange I just tried it via the Manics site and got all the way, just had to confirm my bank details when I stopped. When did you last try? Bugger them if they have it listed and don't have stock of it.

Really? CD2?! I'll try when I get home, I'm in France but home later :)

just ordered it! thanks for telling me they had it in stock :D
