Happy second anniversary to the all time heartstopping world changer that is A&W. More than a song, it's a way of life.

Wow!
Is the CD accessible? I mean, I'm not asking you to open it if it's sealed and you don't want to, but if you can look at the CD, I'm interested whether it's a pressed CD or a CD-R. Either way, nice catch!

Literally no idea where else to post this but look what I got today!
 

we are truly happy!! this is huge  

hii thought I could make this topic to appreciate the nuances that lana holds, highlighting what makes her so great. i thought about this as a  discussion about Lana/ Lizzy herself rather than a general discography appreciation. 
 
that being said, i’ll go first:
I truly love how she is the heroine of art, savior of poetry where she does her work because its truly so integral and fundamental about her. she will disturb the comforted, and comfort the disturbed all while doing it so authentically. 
i love how she started her career as this beautiful, flashy, perfect pop-star but blossomed her core self throughout her work the more time went by.
 
“awkward but sweet”. when she said this in WFWF, it just resonated so hard to me and i like how you can see she composes herself now for the public yet remaining authentic and not “performative” like she were in a magazine interview 24/7. 
 
i like how literate she is too. and educated.
 
i hope her journey continues to grow positively. i love lana(boards)!

I’ll go ahead and insert the thread I made for him here:
Really love the KLF

I remember this being the hit of the school playground when it was released.

Even though this show is sacrilegious because time travel is only possible using a certain stainless steel automobile, I love this song!
 

Thank you Elle for the great detective work. One way or another, hopefully there is information forthcoming from the Auction House. If they care about their reputation at all, they won't want to be stained by being connected to counterfeits/scams.
Also, 'Certificate of Authenticity' is not really worth anything, unless it's from someone who is completely reliable, and definitely not if it just comes from the Auction House. I'd trust it in this case if it was a proven CoA from, say, Johnny Blue Eyes or Chuck, but not from some random 'dress expert' or whoever they got to sign it.

Lover, You Should’ve Come Over, Live at Sin-é, 1993 - Jeff Buckley

Update, I heard back from the auction house a few minutes ago saying that they will check with the team as well as consignor of the dress, and thanked me for bringing my concern to their attention.
So, this confirms that the dress is being sold on consignment, meaning someone who owns the dress reached out to the auction house with the dress to be sold through the auction on the owner’s behalf, and the profit will be divided between the owner and the auction house. Honestly, that only adds to my suspicion as this could easily be someone who bought another version of this dress and is trying to scam some money through a fraudulent sale. This also makes me more concerned about some of the other dresses the auction house sold that are common finds, because as @ultrablvd and @longtimeman noted, unless the piece came directly from a reliable source such as Lana herself or a team-member or is a piece that’s either one of a kind or has some unique identifying detail (such as an authentic signature, alteration, or pattern placement like in this scenario) how can it truly be reliably authenticated? It’s also interesting that three of the commonly-found pieces were sold in 2016, because that was a pretty prominent year for LDR dress collectors. There was a whole little Instagram community of dress collectors during that time that I was a part of where we would all help each other identify brands and source dresses for our collections and share our new finds with each other. We would sell and trade with each other too. It’s the year I personally bought both of those Topshop dresses that the auction house also sold, and I know other collectors were sourcing them around then too again since it was a pretty big time for collecting. Again, it just makes me suspicious that since these dresses are being sold through consignment, that the consignors could’ve just been random people scamming with other versions of the dresses they found.
Anyway, I will continue to keep you all updated, but it seems now they are working on verifying the authenticity of the dress with the discrepancies I shared with them - the signature, altered sleeves, and overall pattern. Hopefully this matter gets sorted before the auction is due to go live, or they delay it until it can be 100% verified x

It was just 'something real' / 13 Beaches. According to one of the insiders, a file doing the rounds at the time had some weird edit of it, and eclipse misheard what was being sung.
