Post by: Bqad on May 14, 2010, 06:36 AM
I have this demo tape. Got it a very long time ago. I can't seem to find any info online about it, anyone familiar with this demo?

I know it's legit...just no info anywhere. The discog you linked doesn't show the version I have with the Dickies/Deftones logo.

The tape is just a sampler and that's probably the only significant info about it.

Yes, of course it's a sampler. I guess this post is for the other "gotta have everything" collectors out there. I'm basically wondering how many were handed out and what not. I know this was most likely handed to me at a show many many years ago, I can't remember for sure when and where I got it. I do live in Sacramento so this is probably something that was just handed out locally.

I own it too. It's an advance promo sampler. Not a demo.

This thread ended up going to hell. Btw..sampler tape and demo tape are pretty much one in the same to me. One would hand out a damn demo for one to sample the music.

A demo is like a release. Something to get a band noticed, to let people know who you are. You can call that a sampler if you want but to me a sampler is a tape with songs or bits from a full release. A sampler is handed out before a release (or after it) to promote the full release. A demo is a release itself... get it?

Let me make my own thread trail way off subject. I clicked on your website...did you paint the big lebowski characters on those blowing pins? I'm guessing pretty much all the stuff there is your own personal work.

Haha...

Yes, I did all artwork on there.

Cool. I like those pins. Feel free to send em my way, I accept donations.

It's one pin and i already sold it. You can send me money anyway.

On topic: got more tapes like that?

No more like that. The only other sampler/demo I have on tape is one from the Around the Fur era. It's the one that comes in a slipcase with a guitar pedal board on the cover. Pretty common one.
