Black Friday Record Store Day 2014


Recommended Posts

If I made a drinking game called "Drink for every post complaining about RSD", I'd be dead.

But I guess that's life. Everything ever will have someone complaining about it.

I hope RSD goes on forever, more bands/labels get involved, & I acquire more records from bands I like.

I like RSD, there's a lot of crap,but for every Aerosmith reissue there's a Government Plates and a Flood

I read that Green Day's old live Japan-only album "Tune in, Tokyo..." is getting a vinyl release for Black Friday Record Store Day and it'll be on blue vinyl. Is this the same as an other RSD like we can call ahead and see what the are going to get or should I expect something different

Wow okay, I was just referring to the record store I used for the usual RSD and how they did it. Let me make it simpler I guess... I'm guessing Black Friday RSD is the same as regular RSD correct?

 

Essentially, yes. The demand isn't quite as bananas from my personal experience though. I've been able to roll into my local record store at 3PM and pick up everything I wanted.

Dude you asked this on this same page right above and someone answered you.

 

Fuckkkkkk. I like you dude, but how many fucking people are going to ask something like that in this thread?

Sorry guys I truly didn't think I was asking that question. The first time was asking if this Black Friday RSD is like regular RSD but on black friday. My new question was just wondering if you guys think it should be easier to get any records I am looking for. I honestly didn't think I was asking the same question. I'll try not to post in here again (at least until 11/28)

Dude you can post all you want just don't repeat the questions. Black Friday RSD is much less crowded than April. Also less releases and less really cool stuff so that accounts for it and also a lot of people are busy with other black friday shopping.
