RSD 2020

[Atvinyl]

Update: just got back from my local and I did get one. Listening to it now and I don't notice any noise on the pressing. I tried to get the lowest possible # (444) but mine sounds excellent, though I do not own the 2016 version to compare.

Oh mine is 4432 haha

Look inside: Bill Evans album

 

[zdkaiser]

The Bill Evans copy I received sounds clean, though there was vinyl trim remnants in the inner sleeve, so I have some light nicks. Hopefully they aren't audible. I'll know soon enough, as it's playing now.

Also, my copy of Primus is warped. The inner sleeve was so tight I could barely get the record out.

I should just listen to CDs.

Anyone online spots open early? Can't get out today with the kids in tow, so trying to snag stuff digitally.

Maybe rough trade? I went to their site and I guess now I’m in a queue

I was in the Rough Trade queue and got in, but if I understand correctly, the RSD stuff drops at 5pm local time.

One of my favorite stores, Black Dots in Buffalo, asks you to send them an email with your wantlist (opened at 8AM EST): blackdotsbuffalo@gmail.com

Put your list and phone number in the email, they put you in the queue, and call you back to let you know what they have on your list to pay over the phone with $5 shipping.

Update: it took them about an hour to call back (last time it took just five minutes) but they had two items I wanted.

The only title I really wanted today was the Hackers OST. Effing flippers have flooded ebay and discogs with $80 copies. My local didn't get it and I'm not paying that.

Alright, I got up and am in line right as the store is opening. It is a decent sized crowd considering how few “must gets” were dropping this time, about a half a blocks worth or fairy socially distanced customers in front of me so I guess it could be less than I’d thought.

It think it will go down. Prices are inflated the worst the morning of RSD.

Cool, the guy standing behind me in line has a cough, thankfully we are outside and both wearing masks. Still, maybe sit this one out, huh?

NO, EVEN COVID PATIENTS NEED BRITNEY SPEARS REMIX ALBUMS!

That was nice they just came out and read a list to the back of the line of what has sold out. Unrighteous Bros is still available so I am still in line.

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

I was able to grab the Unrighteous Brothers 7” (I also grabbed the Jay Bennett release since they had a copy and I wanted to buy something more than a 7” after waiting in line for an hour).

 

[Piratenovelist]

Got everything I wanted!!!
