I have ~150 of those.

i'd like to hear suggestions on how to get them in your dirty hands, at the moment I don't really have much time to deal with it, maybe in a few weeks... remind me ;)

numbered between 000-400

well, i want to reserve #1,

sell them from underworldlive.com,
or give them away with a purchase
of the 'riverrun' series..

yeah, that would be ace.... or how about everyone who has bought all 3 riverrun gets one? i won't be here to get the next one though (vacation)- but that would be a good deal, like the remix compilation.,

How about people that live in Orlando and are named "Zachary Berry" and are awesome get one?

They should be given away with the riverrun purchases for sure! That would be such a wonderful bonus.

dubnobasswithme
05-16-2006, 08:21 PM
that'd be hot to get one of those : ) i agree that it might make a cool bonus for those that have picked up the 3 riverrun eps...

or you could ask people to submit something to you that is underworld-inspired/related (artwork? mixes? 100 pictures from their personal camera phone?)

ETA= and yeah, paypal might be the easiest way to get the money across. maybe those dirts w/o access could talk to someone that does and work out some sort of reimbursement)

verbal

Yannick
05-16-2006, 09:09 PM
well this is a fan to fan thingy... last few time I did that I only had an handful of things to give away so shipping wasn't much, I guess I could do paypal for a fixed s&h cost (i'll check at the postoffice), I really don't want to bother too much the cost is annoying, it would be like 1-2$ time 150.

i'd rather do some mix cd trade, art..... i'm not rushing this

adam
05-16-2006, 09:12 PM
Yeah, I'm more into trading, too. I sent the guy who burned me all the Avalance JJJ and Breezeblock CDs an incredible book of B movie posters. My favorite was one about a bigot whose head gets attached to a black man's neck (the black guy still has his head, too). It looked like the best movie of all time.

That would be a nice thing to have dangling from the wall and showing off (my gf won't let me wear it, I'm sure).

Unfortunately, I'm not that much of an artist, so I'd prefer buying one. Number 42 would be cool, for obvious reasons.
EDIT: Next best number is 23. Of course, I'd take any number that you would appoint.

Distributing them with the RiverRuns would not make much sense, because they are Born Slippy tags and BS has little to do with the Riverrun Project.

What about giving them away with dirtyshirts... (if someone wants to revive them...)

numbered between 000-400Yan told me last night that he had between 080 and 400 but not all those. And to all of those who are just saying "count me in", please read above that Yannick also said he'd like to hear suggestions on how to get them into your hands, not just a "me too" first come first serve attitude. Now, please be a little creative and try and help :)

ok,

you would have to create some artwork
with a 'born slippy' theme...

the best ones posted, or mailed in would
get one..

Icke
05-17-2006, 07:23 AM
I dont think that there are enough BS remixes yet. Let every Dirty make one in exchange for a tag :D .

And there aint enough eBay frenzies yet, so I suggest that they're all put up for bidding :D .


Seriously though; Some kind of contest of "Do something related to Born Slippy" could work (though it would be very chaotic i think). One might do a remix, artwork, make a lil music vid or take a BS inspired picture or something.

Lou
05-17-2006, 07:56 AM
a painting for a born tag? :D
and Yan i am still waiting for the t-shirt, maybe you can send me both together?
;)

Some of the tags could be handed over at the gigs this summer, so you could send Lloyd tags for the dirts in Holland, and Janie or Matt or whomever the tags for the english dirts, etc...

05-17-2006, 08:26 AM
I do think those that have bought all three riverrun series should get one. That's a great idea.

Definitely like the creative submission idea (art, writing, photog, etc). These could be collectively posted as a tribute, in the sense that UWlive and dirty used to have the galleries of faces, cars, couches, etc.

feels good to fire up again anyway. a little rusty but working on it... getting some old themes out of the system, getting a bit crude and also testing some new things...
i'll also get some actual photos in... maybe do a packet of random things

darktrain
05-17-2006, 11:17 PM
i think the cellphone photo contest is a good idea. most people would have access (either from their own phone or a friend's) and it's fairly simple. plus, i have a feeling that's something mr. hyde would dig, no?

or, the "guess the number" contest would be fair, though maybe a bit tough to manage for yan.

i'm with ally though...tell me what/how and i'll do it.

well, i for one am proud of my BS cover, not a remix - but I doubt at this point that anyone is going to hear it :(

nonetheless, I'd sure love a tag - and besides, how about one for those of us that purchased "in the belly of st. paul" on its special release signed by karl with the pic in it? :) or whatever the kind mr. Yan may decide... much love and thanks.

big screen satellite
05-19-2006, 11:10 AM
well

you know what you should do Yan, is give them to the first 150 members who signed up to (joined) Dirty in its most recent incarnation...

so the first member gets 001, and the 150th, 150... thats it...

makes them exclusive club memberships... ;)

i have one already...but i'd still like a lower number...

infact...000 or 001 would be best for me being number one superfan ;)

oh and if you have 001-150, complete - do you have 133, because i already have it, and it means that they duplicated the numbers...?

mark3
05-19-2006, 11:31 AM

I see a lot of inactive users among the first 150 members, while some of those who joined later seem to post a lot here, so I don't think that would be 'fair'.
Yannick, why don't you do the same thing you did with the Tokyo discs - put up a poll and ask how many are interested? - I guess less people would be interested in these tags than the cds.

I'm not a very creative type and would hate to come up with some goofy cellphone pic of me or something like that. :)

hugh121spike

Sounds superb. they should be given to people who have supported the band financialy since they left the label, so yeah all three riverun?

Please, count me in

denkbat
05-19-2006, 11:48 AM
I'd love to have one of these!

Do we know how many people bought the "River Run"-releases? Maybe there's more than 150... Or maybe I'm overestimating their popularity. If possible, this would be a good way to give them out.

Another idea would of course be an art-display. Be it photo, simple art or music... Anything that is relevant for Underworld or this forum.

That i think is the best idea so far!

Of course i can sugest one that might get me one of those tags.....

How about the proud owners of M.E. 12" who belong to this forum despite the date they joined get one first;)
I really had to work hard to get the extra money to buy me one :D !!

..or how about we send a picture of us with all of our Underworld discography (and i do mean hard copies not mp3 stuff):eek:

... What i mean is: all of those who considerer themself as "completists" should prove they are ( and thats the reason why they want these tags) and should get a ref. or coded ebay auction in order to buy one. The same way as we did with the Tokyo cds.

Whatever you decide, please count me in!!!:)

industri_studios
05-20-2006, 09:37 PM
You need to do something akin to the Tokyo discs. Making it an exclusive thing for those who logged in first etc. is ridiculous.

I could see giving it to the top 150 posters if you want something like that... start at most messages and work down. If you want to make it an elitist thing...

Otherwise, selling via eBay seems the best way (but again, cryptic item # and such)...

how about those people who've actually appeared in magazines with their collection get the first dibs on number 001 ;)


and if anyone is a true 'completist' they really should have this tag already ... but that's splitting hairs...

But, y'all realize Yannick hasn't responded to anyone's request or suggestions since last tuesday, and back on post #15 he wrote that he's not in a rush for this. Until he gets around to it, maybe let's stop with the reasons why we all deserve it more than the next dirty? Anyone who posts here is admitting they are a huge U/W fan and most would probably like/deserve a tag. Just my two cents, cos from some viewpoints, this thread is starting to get grubby :p

haha i agree, but asides from the specific tag numbers i doubt that there are more than 150 people who want one of these either way...

afterall a much more prized piece - the tokyo CD only prompted about 100 yes's to a poll of who wanted one... (ok so a few more may still want that, but even so...)

no one deserves anything... Yannick has a bunch of left over tags from a while back (maybe - you never know with yan ;)) and wants to shift them to some fans... i believe that everyone who really wants one will get one...

they are not that great, not that unique and not that desirable... i'd rather have some new 12" / CD any day - music is the key

(personally i'm just joining in the banter, i already have one - but would like to swap for a lower number - but if i didn't get one then i'd be no worse off - ok so if i didn't have one then maybe i'd be wanting one, but I still wouldn't be fretting about it because i seriously doubt that 150 people have said they would like one, and doubt 150 will)

anyway, we're Dirty - thats why its getting grubby

Well, I'm one of the 100 yes's and I did not come anywhere near getting a CD. And based on their being sold out within about 15 minutes of their availability on Ebay I would expect the demand to be pretty high.

I'm all for riverrun purchasers to have a chance at these, since I've at least been able to get those. And I'm all for photographing my UW CDs and DVD and mmm...skyscraper book. etc., maybe I could even find a photo of the Born Slippy 12" that I bought on ebay that that prick never shipped...

regardless, buy, trade, whatever, i want one of these tags, and if begging is what's required, well . . . (kneels in genuflection) 79 or 111, please, yannick. pleeeeease . . .

No preference on the number as long as I have a shot at one. I've been looking for these for a while, I like it better than the Dubno... tags

I would settle for # 080 as it's my birth year. I would also go for 023 as it's my birthday, but if taken, c'est la vie.

If just picking a number will get you a tag - heck, I'd love 76... but I guess we shall all see, yes?

Since everyone else is asking, is 314 one of the numbers?
...now I know it's not. 219 please? I'm up for the cell phone pics. Unfortunately I don't have any other artistic skills to offer of late.

003 Favourite number.

076 Birth year.

203 works for me.

246 last 3 digits of phone number.

393 divisible by favorite number.

Is Yannick looking for this kind of feedback? Or just trying to make us all crazy crazy crazy crazy crazy crazy

i don't think it was yans idea to have everybody shout what they want, but the reverse: ideas for trading...
(then again, that's my interpretation of the first post.)

(then again, that's my interpretation of the first post.)This is true. He never said people got to pick, but he was kind enough to answer people's question about what the available numbers are. Still, some suggestions did come in the beginning of the thread, and I hope he has read them and ignored everything that's been said since ;)

anything artistic or involving cell phone is out of my league because:

a. i am the worst artist in the world
b. i have an old phone (by preference) which does not do photo's

so either of these options would preclude me from a tag:eek:

I think a reasonable directive would be for each of us to submit an article that we can call our own work that may perhaps be displayed if that's what's wanted - things like the suggested pictures from phones would suit, as would poetry or even a precious memory. Maybe even a submission of a small article that isn't your own work that you feel should be brought to the attention of everyone as part of a collage of submissions. You could even send in a picture of any kids you have and say "I made that!".

I think this is pretty reasonable, that way everyone gets to offer something in the realm of their ability. A much better solution especially for those of us who intentionally have simple non-camera phones.

I don't have much to trade that you guys don't already have, so I like the idea of making something new. It'd have to be something a bit cack-handed and feckless, but still - it's the thought (or the quiet desperation to get my hands on one of these) that counts. I could do the mobile photos. Otherwise, it's t-shirts or pottery, and then we're into the world of craft fairs and paperweights.:(

I have a pretty good recipe for brownies.



Since everyone else has bagsied a number: I was born in '77, the year genetic engineering gave the world recombinant insulin produced in bacteria, which could only previously be gotten by slaughtering pigs and cows for their pancreas. Failing that then anything prime would be good.
