Our pal at Badman Records (not sure if he's from California), Dylan, has offered to let the fine forum choose the colors that will go into the next splatter run of "Chocolate and Ice"!
We haven't finalized the details, but he needs to place his order on Monday, so I'd like to limit input to end by 5pm EST Sunday, March 17, 2013. I'll send Dylan the link to this thread and try to keep a tally as well. He'll make the final call.
The last run was on ultra-clear, one of my favorites, but its been done. I have a link to the color choices (http://www.piratespress.com/cms/vinyl-records/vinyl-size-shape-options/colored-vinyl), or see below. I'm also including a link to color configurations (http://www.piratespress.com/cms/vinyl-records/vinyl-size-shape-options/color-configurations) (or see below), though Dylan didn't include this in his email, so it may not be an option. Still, if you have an opinion as to color configuration and color choices, submit it here and I'll pass it along.
Here's Dylan's original email:
Hey John,
Badman is going to do another run of Chocolate and Ice on LP. It will be a similar splatter pattern to what our last run was. Though I'd like to pick some new colors. Do you want to put in your two cents or throw it out to the forum and give me the overall feedback? I am going to place the order on Monday. We can choose any solid color and up to two splatter colors. We did brown splatter over ultra clear on the last run. Here are the color choices: http://www.piratespress.com/cms/vinyl-records/vinyl-size-shape-options/colored-vinyl (http://www.piratespress.com/cms/vinyl-records/vinyl-size-shape-options/colored-vinyl)
Cheers,
Dylan
Badman

I'll get this ball rollin'...
Hmmm.
I like the heavy splatter of Deep Purple and White w/Silver opaque.
all white. #1.
So that pressing that looked like shit and pee was more accurate than I thought: Dookie Brown and Piss Yellow! Yeah, let's not do that again.

I like your idea of the heavy splatter with the purple and silver! I might also enjoy a nice silver splatter on orange crush transparent.
Oh, and yes, I did need a third copy of C&I. :thumbsup:
i really like that heavy splatter on opaque...not sure about the colors though

I hear that! :shocked:
I vote they repress in the blue or brown that has previously been done. I don't wanna keep buying different colors
i think it's pretty cool to have a "forum picked" record...i only have the original piss and shit C&I so I'll get this one and that will do it for me
an icy blue splatter would be cool. my brown one sounds awful
highlighter yellow and kelly green with A side/B side transparent colors reminds me of the cold lightning with the bugs in my hair
Heavy splatter on gold opaque.

That poopy-pee pressing does sound like somebody did both of those things on the master. Later pressings sound great, and maybe this new one could be even better?
Hey ewind, you don't have to buy it. :tongue: :wink:
the highlighter yellow and green sounds awesome!!!!!
highlighter yellow splatter on kelly green opaque...definitely like the lightning bug idea
If I understand this correctly... half and half w/splatter using #7 and P14
i gotta hand it to the badman from california for this idea. how else are you going to get a bunch of rabid fans/vinyl nerds to buy something they already 2-4 copies of? that said, sign me up.
and the greatman yac for making it happen!
as a Lions fan, the green yellow combo makes me think of the packers too much, and we've had plenty of green with the Circuital eye in the last couple years. now that I see we have a chart I like the idea of the heavy splatter on opaque with Electric Blue and white.

I just answered my email.
I like the heavy splatter on opaque too, i like how the one on the right looks like an eye. I'll go with orange crush, aqua blue, and silver for the colors.
I like heavy baby blue splatter on aqua blue opaque.
Crispy, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the brown and yellow looked like bodily waste. That should never be done again...ever.when I have time this weekend, I'll find my pick.
Damn you all. Now I have to get another copy.
Cool idea letting forum folks pick the colors. Thanks John,too. Dylan is a great guy. He sent me two copies of C&I long way back, one extra by mistake. Told me to keep it too but I sent it back.
Well I'll choose Heavy Splatter pattern with Grimace Purple and Silver colors.

I like heavy baby blue splatter on aqua blue opaque.
Maybe I'll change mine to heavy baby (batter) blue splatter on milky clear.
1 Transparent/1 Opaque Hot Pink/Baby Pink
Cyan Blue with yellow heavy splatter
or
red with dookie heavy splatter (bloody stool edition lol)

I'm lucky if I have a single creative bone in my body and as scosby said, the combinations make my head hurt. I'll leave it up to you more creative folks and hope I can order one when they become available. :thumbsup:
Highlighter Yellow + Transparent w/ Haze
i think that would be nice!

For those of you who put in ideas recently, Dylan @ Badman Records is looking only at submissions through 5pm EST Sunday, as summarized above (http://forum.mymorningjacket.com/index.php/topic,17456.msg328296.html#msg328296). We appreciate all of the ideas. Right now, it sounds like Dylan is leaning toward combining some ideas, so it may be a blend of a few submissions.
When will this be released?? I don't own C&I nor have I ever heard it so this will be a purchase for me no doubt. Also, kudos to badman for asking for the forum imput. I wish more companies would do this. Definitely a nice little treat for the die-hards.
BTW, I know he's not taking anymore suggestions, but I'm defintely hoping for the cyon blue/white combo as suggested above.
It looks like it'll be a couple of months before they're up for sale. Sounds like the end result might be more of a hybrid mix of some of our suggestions. I guess its hard to know how some of these things look until you just do 'em. Thanks to everyone who chimed in.
Ok thanks, can't wait to see the final product. I'll be stopping by here to keep an eye out for the release date.
Cheers.
Hot off the presses and the best one yet! Hope it sounds better, too!
Thanks to Dylan and Badman records for letting the forum help in the design!

that's beautiful.
Woohoo! Do we know whose suggestion (or blend of suggestions) they used? I don't feel like parsing that list.

Dylan didn't seem to want to suggest any one or two people led to the final design. I see a lot of different suggestions in the final product, plus some changes to make the final look work.
This new splatter design is described as, "transparent purple and blue mixed with opaque purple and blue over milky clear." The only forum member to suggest milky clear was ManNamedTruth. Those who mentioned splatter colors of blue and purple include searchinbig, weeniebeenie, Mr. White, johnnYYac, and robb.
I just ordered mine. Cheers to everyone for their suggestions!
Are they sold out already? The site's not letting me buy one. Or is it just a problem with international shipping?

I doubt it. Contact Dylan if you're still having trouble...

Thanks for the heads up Mr. Yac! :thumbsup:
They look awesome, most definitely will be cooler in hand.
Remember to take them out of the plastic when you get them!

I was just trying to come up with a perverted sounding suggestion, didn't think they'd use it. :thumbsup:
