Well, I've had Naveed since the Fall of '94, and every other release since the day they came out. Here's the status:

Naveed - have replaced the case once, the CD itself is scratched but holding up
Clumsy - put it this way... a year ago I bought a new one! I'm on my second Clumsy
Happiness - front of case is busted to the point where it doesn't stay on, but the CD is cool
Spiritual Machines - front of case cracked, CD is cool
Gravity - not surprisingly, it's just like new

I was then to be part of the mystery,
to love and be loved. Let's just hope that is enough.

I only just actually bought the CD's. I had all the songs burnt onto different CD's but then decided to bite the bullet and spend $100 to buy all 5 albums this summer around the release of Gravity.
Some of you probably think I left. But was I ever here to start?

The special SM case was plain black, with the sitting-in-the-chair guy on the cover in silver. No biggy. It still had all the same liner notes and booklets and front and back pictures. So I just put it in a clear case, and I was set.

My gravit skips on ASAAG, and Happiness skips on ...lying awake I think. Luckily I don't really like those songs, so I am in my prime.All my cases are great and same with my booklets. :)

Hmm, my Naveed is good. Clumsy skips at Automatic Flowers. Happiness skips at Consequence of Laughing and Stealing Babies. S.M. I had to re-buy because it was so bad, but now it's all good. And Gravity skips at All For You :oops:

My cd's are pretty scratched, but they play fine so I'm happy lol. My cd cases on the other hand look like I have indeed stomped on them all at one point or another

Better the cases than the cd's says I :roll:

I copied all the cd's straight to my hard drive when i bought them and listen to them on the computer so they're all basically brand new.

Gravity is new and I've only listened to it once since I bought Spiritual Machines. Clumsy, I've decided, IS skipping. Naveed, Clumsy and Spiritual Machines are all used because I got angry when I was basically overcharged $3.50 US on Gravity.

Naveed and Spiritual Machines are both in good condition. I still don't have Happiness.

I keep all my Canadian CDs in one case, some with liner notes (BNL, GBS) some without (Alanis, OLP). They're all in pretty good shape. I had to replace about five CDs cuz my old case was scratching them up

there's nothing wrong with any of the actual cd'sm but i think the clumsy case is quite scratched as perhaps a couple of others are. i don't have them here for reference right now ( only cause i'm at susan's house, not because i would ever let all my olp cd's leave the house without me 0_0)

Agh! My cds are all scratched (but they work fine still though) except for my special edition of sm...the normal one is scratched! I keep the inserts (in their cases) good though! I've got all of them signed by atleast 1 member of OLP, so they've got a special place on my shelf. :)

I've never understood getting CDs signed. I have LOTS of liner notes signed, but no CDs. I don't want to spend the extra $17 or so on a new CD if my other one works perfectly fine.

And what do y'all think the level is where you've met a band/band member so many times you don't need any more autographs? Is it when they recognize you and say hi?

I wouldn't know. I've never met any performers. Hell I've never even been to a concernt. Except for Billy Ray Cyrus and Neil McCoy with my mom like 7 ears ago. :cry: Creed is in Toronto on Sept. 1 and I wanted to go sooooo bad. But again, I'll miss out since I'm at my cottage. Maybe I'll hit the next OLP concert in Toronto. As long as when they come back through they don't do clubs since I'm only 16. I can only hope I guess. :roll:
