I lucked out and saw my local shop got a few in.  This is nuts.  With all the lead up for this thing, to have this happen is such a crazy letdown.

Anyone hear anything from fat beats yet?

 

 

Got an email about a half hour or so ago.  Bum deal.  Offered 20% off coupon and 20% of the black LP when it's in stock.  I wrote back pissed in the moment, but I don't know what they can do honestly.  They can't mail what they don't have.  I just wish this was news that was shared with enough time to actually try and get one when I could.  That all day in-store thing is happening Friday.  I can't skip work for it so there it is.

Someone told me there was talk of inner sleeves and cat gifs in here.

Got me like:

YES.

Thank you Jesus that I am not a Nothing variant collector.  I would be weeping in the fetal position right now.

So much this.  

Also you guys think I need a better shot of my cover for the composite or is the one I posted OK?

Mine is like that too. The resell value just plummeted.

The upside is now we can start a club.  Or support group if that's the case.

1/1, eBay gold!

HAH!  As unique as it *might* be it's driving me nuts. 

Received mine the other day.  Was curious if they laid the covers out in a grid or just tossed them all over the floor.  Also if we had enough of them pictured if we could recreate the layout like a puzzle.  Heh.

Edit:  My hype sticker is upside down.  The opening of the outer sleeve is at the top in this pic.  Anyone else's turn up this way?

Don't think we get to enjoy 'Books-A-Million' this side of the pond, sad as that makes me.

Well shoot.  I didn't look at where you guys were located.  Sorry about that.  If it's any consolation, there doesn't appear to be one anywhere near me since I've moved from VA to DE. 

If you're near a Books-A-Million they still had a couple of their exclusive variant kicking around the last I checked.  It's not as limited as the ETR version but they're pretty and /1000 I think.  

Geez that's pretty. 

So technically most of us got Nothing so far.

(yes, I went there.)

IN for whatever.  I already know I'm going to want it.

Must be The Spectrum.

That's one of them.  Lithium is another and their are one or two more.  

Alarm is set for 5AM and I'm gonna go crash. I'll probably start posting from the line once I get to my store. Good night and good luck, everyone!

Same here.  Although I was planning on getting to the shop by 5 and the owner told me there's no need to get there that early.  First time doing RSD in DE and I'm going in with no idea what to expect.  Should be interesting.

The Sirius radio station my office has on non-stop has been playing Ophelia on the hour.  That is one ear worm of a song.

Just pre-ordered from Melody Supreme without issue this am.  All three LPs/colors.  Curious how the 1500 of each was distributed and if I will actually get colored vinyl.  Due to ship any day now, right?

I've been having a hell of a time with customer service at Vinyl Digital.  It's pretty frustrating and disappointing.  Finally got them to adjust my order via discogs and then I get an emailed invoice and Pablo was left off.  I've already paid for it and discogs has it listed as part of my order but I'm told they only received an order for the other two records. 

Moved to Delaware over the weekend and the records were one of the first things to get unpacked.  I was panicked at first thinking everything would take up much more space.  Probably experience with my past few microscopic living rooms rearing its ugly head.  Fortunately it doesn't and it appears I have MORE space for MORE storage.  Took a quick pic to share but I'm still very much in the midst of unpacking which is not amazing to go through if you haven't already.  At least I can play the records while I do it!

The collection is up to ~400 now.  Small by comparison but I have been steadily selling/trading out things I don't love to replace them with things I do so it's a solid 400. 

I'd love to have this.  I was at that show.  

Price tag was tough but I grabbed a cream/purple splatter.  I've been waiting for it to go live for so long I felt like I had to see it through. Hah. Now to wait again. Weeeee.

Last 3 Records:

Beach House - Thank Your Lucky Stars

Melvins - Ozma

Hot Water Music - 20th Anniversary LPs

Favorite TV Show:

Anything with David Tennant.  Jessica Jones, Doctor Who, Broadchurch...etc.

David. Tennant. 

Thanks so much for doing this!

The one link actually called it magenta.  So at least now we may know what color the color vinyl will be.  Hopefully they'll offer up more details on pressing/design soon.

I wish we could see the picture discs before buying especially at that price, but I'll probably grab them regardless, too.

I would normally be pretty open to a deluxe edition from acts I've enjoyed for a while, but the vinyl is picture discs in the deluxe sets. Seems like a weird decision to me.

Just noticed that, too.  They have + x2 inner bags listed as a feature?  Hehe.  That whole package is both very her and also very strange.  Which is also very her.

Those tour venues look incredible.
