I've been waiting to post on this one. The day that I received the new Champion live LP, Different Directions from Bridge Nine Records, I got an email from Aram saying that he had a copy of the album on gold vinyl that he was going to set aside for me. I had not heard about a gold pressing, so I was extremely excited to find out from him that it was special "friends press", limited to 100! He went on to thank me for the support that I had given to Champion and Betrayed and said that I deserved one. Holy shit...I don't hero worship, but you have no idea how fucking excited I was. This was at the end of April. Fast forward four months of waiting, and a few email exchanges, and the record finally arrived today. Easily in the top 5 pieces of vinyl that I own...well worth the wait.

looking good!
That gold vinyl looks really cool. I still don't have a copy of this. I really want to see that dvd too.
The DVD is really well done...really captures the excitement of a Champion show.
Good story. Similar thing happened to me. One day Aram just emailed me & asked for my address. A couple of weeks later I got two records in the mail. What a guy!
