These were the cool promo posters that they were giving away - Scott Waters signed the Ultimatum one :-)

Just curious how big are the "posters"? They look more like 8X14 flyers. I remember these when they came out with the IMR releases but since I never preordered any I never got one (they didn't come with any that I ordered anyway).

Yep, they're about 8X14, maybe a tad bigger.

Nice haul, and great score on those LPs! Particularly Theocracy, Deliverance, Dokken, and Y&T!

Would you believe all the vinyls were only $3 bucks (except the Deliverance and Theocracy- but I still got such a huge discount that I pretty much got both for the price of just one !)

Nice snag on that vinyl! Have been eyeing Theocracy for a while but honestly I am holding off on all vinyl until Recon is ready for preorder.

Look at what came in the mail yesterday!  Thank you Jim!!!

Awesome!!!

Thanks!  I certainly think it's mighty awesome too.

Here's the vinyls I snagged.....

Ah I love that album.  I have it on CD and listen to it quite regularly.  The Healing Hand is just such a powerful song; the lyrics really get to me.

Kerrick, did you notice Derek on the first page at the bottom - he's using a spray can of RAID poison on his canvas....

I studied art for several years in high school and college, and never once did I learn about THAT technique - HAHA !!!!  I wonder if he's just being silly or if there's a method to what he's doing... perhaps he'll talk about it in the book.

Look forward to getting comfy on the couch with a Starbucks and start reading this one.  I just finished the book I was reading, so this weekend will be perfect timing to start delving into it.

Maybe he has a roach problem while working. Ever think of that?!? 

BA-DUM-TSHHHHHH !!!! 

Jim, I saw that too. I've never heard of that either... Very strange!

Though this one was super cool, it had way too much anti-Christian, pro-satan crap everywhere.  Satanic, occultic,and Jesus/God-hating stuff for sale.  Some of the shirts these kids were wearing just broke my heart.  Such hatred for Jesus, makes me wonder sometimes if they wear that crap as a "cry-for-help"... like maybe they're fighting the LORD who's knocking on their hearts.  Walter Martin once said that if you throw a rock into a pack of angry wolves, the one that cries out loudest is the one who got hit. In other words, the person who is the most vocal and against Jesus, is sometimes the one who's closest to breaking and receiving Him into their lives.  I guess it's possible, Idk.
