Hi all,
Been very busy (labelwise and otherwise) - and with a repetitive
stress injury, this'll be brief (...or not)!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First, I forgot to mention/remind you that The Old Rig / Hobo Cubes /
Saturn Finger / Balder- double 7" is now officially available, for €8.
Here are some snippets: http://soundcloud.com/abeardofsnailsrecords/abos3-043-teaser

Packin' artist copies together like mad :-)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As for the second point, I know, I know. I just held a sale to
commemorate the corny/awesome/once in a lifetime/water flowing
underground 11/11/11.

But, as it's A Beard of Snails Records' 5th anniversary on December 1
(also Copenhagen Central Station's 100th birthday, and Denmark's 'TV2
News' channel's 5th)... here's another sale, in case the timing was
bad on the 11th for some of you, or maybe you just wanted more (or
fewer) fine items from the diminishing A Beard of... catalogue. (Fresh
items in the coming months, but more on those later.)

The deal is, yes, 5 items for €5 (that's only about £4 / $6) including
shipping (but dough-nations are welcome)!!!

Easiest way is to Paypal funds to in...@abeardofsnails.com ,
mentioning the items you want (with alternatives, in case anything
sells out.)

Again, here, I'm afraid I can't include vinyl releases in this
dealio... but I'm sure you'll get a hold of one or more seperately,
either from me or one of the artists, if you want. Also, no distro
items in this sale. But, I'm including some BSBTA/d'Oorhinge l'Orange
CD releases (both labels I run/ran - the latter is defunct, the
former, soon to be.)

You've got 4 days this time... the sale is on from December 1 to 4.

You may certainly make use of this deal more than once (10 items for
10€, for example.) Everything will be shipped in one package.

Things will take a while to get to you... I'm just now putting the
last two big 11/11/11 orders together; label time (aka. spare time)
has been very limited the past couple of weeks. Unless everything
breaks down, you'll possibly get your items in time for Giftmas.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Times continue to be hard, financially.
A Beard of Snails figured a good time to be generous would be on its
birthday :-)
