Lazaretto, Third Man pressed a limited run of promo only 7”s of the instrumental track "High Ball Stepper." This rarely seen beauty is a single-sided 45, pressed on baby blue vinyl featuring an etching of the Jack White logo on the flip side and a velveteen label. We’d like to give away 30 copies of the High Ball Stepper single to Vault members. And here’s how we’re going to do it... Ponder the following question, and E-MAIL YOUR ANSWER + SHIPPING ADDRESS* to vaultcontests@thirdmanrecords.com

elitist. 1. A person who believes that they are superior to others (and thus deserve favored status) (see also Avard’s comment below)
Hey Avard, I’ve been a subscriber since Vault #2, missed #1, because I stupidly missed the cut-off (still kicking myself on that one). There was nothing elitist about the question. I didn’t KNOW the answer either, as I suspect most people who won didn’t. I spent a good hour researching pressing plants and where they might have had it done. Then I made an educated guess on where it was pressed. My first guess, Archer was wrong, so I went with Musicol as my second guess.
TMR delivers a quality product for the service we all willingly signed up for. All the bonus opportunities are just that. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. There have been plenty of things on here that I would have liked to have gotten, but didn’t. C’est La vie. The constant whining and entitlement on these boards has become tiresome.
wow Ben, how did one make it to Seattle before one made it to Texas… :)
Yep mine arrived on Saturday!
some people are already receiving theirs! I can’t wait!
Can’t wait to receive my 7". Totally made my week
