I made sure to pop in before the October drop to do a trade in. There was nothing I wanted from the October list so I deferred and ended up spending $100+ each time so my spending was up for the first time and I’m thankful I could splurge on myself this year. Like you said it’s all about the support for the local stores!
This is me. I much rather be able to hop into a local, but the nearest RSD spots are about 2 hours away and that's a no go having children and a spouse with no interest in vinyl. Thanks to everyone here, I've gotten what I want but usually from a few different stores. I am hopeful that stores keep up the online options in the future.
A to the men!
Same here - nothing particularly local other than a Newbury in a mall (which I don’t really count as a “local”) and I’m at least a few years away from my kids being old enough to come with me, or at least me no longer needing a good excuse to fuck off for a few hours on the weekend.

I believe it’s a RSD First so it should get a proper release next year.
Not sure. She said if the demand was crazy she may press a few more but that was about as much as I've found out. Lost In Space is getting a repress though. Thats a definite
My past experiences with “RSD First” titles does not engender an unwavering confidence in additional reissues. Same goes for”RSD Exclusives” not being reissued. I can point to examples of both that did not turn out the way they were represented by RSD. That being said, if there is money to be made. I am sure it will get reissued.

That's a great interview. Thanks!From Aimee Mann's interview earlier in the week
There are only 5,000 copies pressed, which seems low, looking at how instantly some Record Store Day titles have gone recently in quantities of about that size that have far less repute as a classic than this one. Is this a one-time pressing or will there be a separate edition later on that’s not limited?
I don’t know! Listen, if I thought people were really clamoring for it, I’m sure I would press up some more.
Aimee Mann on the ‘Stubbornness’ That Led to ‘Bachelor No. 2,’ an Indie Landmark Being Reissued for Record Store Day
Aimee Mann discusses celebrating the 20th anniversary of her classic "Bachelor No. 2" with an expanded double-LP for RSD Black Friday.
I asked this on the Wilco thread too.
I have not. You should try to return it for your money back. Plus, everything I've read about this release states that the recording sounds terrible and originates from the drummers personal tape recorder. Really poor reviews on discogs.
I also saw some of those reviews on discogs, but I would not say it sounds terrible at all. While it may not be an audiophile recording, it is an enjoyable listen to my ears.
