The Waiting Game

One of the worst things about listening to obscure music is having to order it and then wait for it to show up. Don't get me wroung, I love dealing directly with small labels. Hand written notes, random free things thrown in, the knowledge that all the money is going to good causes, it is a good feeling. But, I want my music now! I don't want to have to wait a week or so to get it.

I just won two CDs off ebay:

Toshimaru Nakamura And Tetuzi Akiyama - Meeting at Off Side Vol. 2
Amy Yoshida - Spiritual Voice

And I just placed an order with Eclipse Records:

Scorces - L'or et L'argent
Sub Burned Hand of the Man - Magnetic Drugs
Acid Mothers Temple - Live In Japan
Acid Mothers Temple Family - Do What Ever You Want...
Pardons - Charlie's Pardons

Now, the waiting game. I got an email from Ed at Eclipse that said the order will go out on Saturday, so that should be here soon. The ebay stuff though will take longer. It's going to be five days just for the payment to clear (paypal sucks!!!) and then it's time to wait for USPS.

Listening to Johnny Cash right now.
