Your Boards of Canada Collection

[OrangeRodox6010]

Music Has the Right to Children, digipak
Twoism, vinyl repressing
two copies of the 1999 vinyl repressing of Hi Scores with the braille sticker
Music Has the Right to Children, vinyl repressing
In A Beautiful Place Out in the Country, vinyl
Geogaddi, vinyl, got it for $70, which I consider a small miracle
The Campfire Headphase, vinyl

And I have the Tomorrow's Harvest vinyl pre ordered. Still don't have Trans Canada Highway or Peel Sessions.

All in All, I've spent what I consider quite a bit, but there's obviously some pretty hardcore collections on here that makes mine look weak.

What exactly is the story behind these?

What exactly is the story behind these?

As far as I know, these plastic turquoise hexagons were given to attendees of the Geogaddi listening parties back in 2002....

I met up with a friend of mine the other day who is also a massive BOC fan and he mentioned something in his collection that I'd forgotten all about. just after the release of mhtrtc he sent a letter to BOC basically saying how much he loved the album and also sent some art work that the album had inspired him to do. anyway he actually got a reply back thanking him for the art work and his support etc. we meant to dig it out that night but never got around to it. I vaguely remember it from when I saw it years ago though, it had a hexagon on it and also a picture of a flute which I thought was apt.
he's a bit backwards when it comes to technology, still has no computer or Internet at his place so i keep him informed off all the stuff thats happening BOC wise. I took my ipad around to show him the transmission video and rftd. I told him about bocpages and that they'd probably love a scan of the letter he got, he said it was fine to do that. so at some point I'll get him to dig it out and I'll post it up. the letter also jogged my memory about a couple of emails i received from hexagon sun many years ago. I once bid on eBay for a copy of hooper bay, hexagon sun contacted me soon after to tell me it was fake and they were trying to get the auction taken down! i also emailed them after I'd gotten hold of an original copy of twoism, i noticed that sixtyniner was very slightly longer than on the reissue and asked them about it, I think the reply was just 'well spotted'!

Fucking lol. Diehard. These are so rare and you're lucky

I have basically everything possible on mp3 ... and Twoism, In A Beautiful Place Out in the Country, Music Has the Right to Children, Geogaddi, and The Campfire Headphase all on CD.
I have a Tomorrow's Harvest preorder CD ... so I'll soon have that, too.
I love owning the CDs for car rides.

I had one of these! They gave them out at an outdoor listening party for Geogaddi. It was down in a small town called Farkusville. It was supposed to be raining Rats and Hogs that day, so when we showed up, they gave these out. I sold it on ebay for a cool $30.00 several years ago. They now go for $650.00. I should have held on to it.

Just scored an In A Beautiful Place Out in the Country EP on vinyl on Discogs.com! I got home late last night and did my usual browsing and the seller had just listed it. $25.

I am disappointed and feel like a complete pilchard for being so gullible

It never rains rats and hogs, especially not in Farkusville
