I don't get it. What are they selling, exactly, the back catalogue and the contracts? Must be a pretty bangin' label for $10K.*

*ability to make a profit in desperate times not included

Vice Records is up for sale?!

Hey, that's perfect! Because that's a good way to set the tone for your whole experience running the label: start off by losing $10,000 to get started, and then maybe it won't seem so bad as you continue to lose $10,000 more every few months thereafter, until you ultimately decide to re-sell the label yourself later on Craigslist.

Oh, and Craiglist poster: drop Victory Records' Tony Brummel a line:

Hello,

My apologies for the mass e-mail.

We are looking at purchasing masters, entire catalogs etc.

If you have any interest in such a discussion please get in touch. Feel free to share this message with anyone that you feel may have interest.

Kind Regards,

Tony

Hey, I hear that Gawker Media is willing to pay 10-Large for photoshops...'>by coincidence, Jezebel Records can just close the full circle on this deal.

Synergy, baby.

@DHMBIB: Of course, the post got mangled.

amyway, my larger point was:

1) GM has 10K to spend;
2) C. Montgomery Burns has a nuclear plant to sell;
3) ???
4) Profit!!!

Thanks, I'll be here all week...
