Arizona_Is_The_Reason

I got it and it sounds good to me. Only spun it once, I'm actually looking to sell mine, I have this (odd) goal to only own records without profanity, and forgot this one has a few zingers. Let me know if you're interested.

So the non-VIP option is not up for order yet? Or am I missing something?

Grabbing this for sure!

Mine finally showed. The red/orange looks great, but the other one looks like petrified vomit. Ambitious mockup for sure, but I don't think I've ever had an album look so different from the mockup. Not a huge deal but kinda lame.

Did you guys get a shipping notice for this? I haven't heard a thing. Their website won't work and they haven't responded to any emails. Wondering where my copy might be.

I think it said June 10th?

Nice. I saw them on that same tour with Hey Mercedes. Jon was an amazing artist and seemed like a great man as well.

Sounds.... Straightforward. And dare I say brighter? I like it.

yeah I know. Super lame. For all I know they tried to dump a blemished copy on me.

Hey all, I got an RSD edition from a shop online and received a copy with a big blemish on the jacket. The shipping box was undamaged so it seems this happened before it was shipped to me. I know it's silly, but I'm a little OCD with stuff like that and I know it will bug me. The shop will refund me if I ship it back, but I thought I'd check if anyone here is interested before I send it back to them. The shrink wrap is still unbroken. Alternatively if anyone knows how to get a spare jacket (if they exist) let me know. Sometimes labels have extras but Ace-Fu is not functioning, so I'm not sure who is officially behind the repress. Thx

Always a certain satisfaction that comes with doing the right thing.

Gonna keep an eye on this.

GraywhaleSLC.com appears to have some.

A shop I loved when I lived in Utah just went live with leftovers. GraywhaleSLC.com. Just got Blue Screen Life and Ten Stories with ease after refreshing Bullmoose for two hours to no avail.

Dead in the water!

Nice! Trying to decide if I want to line up for this.

Got a shipping notice for my copy of the leftover Kickstarter copies. Super excited for this one!

Yeah, Zia Chandler is my closest shop.

I've read the thread! It does seem like something that originally was a neat idea has turned into a bit of a monster. I'd prefer periodic record store exclusives to a single special day for everything.

If you have to choose only one, I'd say the artists and labels. They directly create and produce the music, and without them there wouldn't be a shop anyway. I love browsing record stores and I miss the old days when I lived close to one and went there at least weekly. But I think retailers unfortunately have to figure out how to roll with the changes.

I've done some digging but didn't find a lot of specific help, so hope everyone doesn't mind a new thread. I'm pretty new to collecting and haven't ventured out on RSD yet. I'm about an hour from the closest shop and I'm really only after Blue Screen Life. I'm not in love with the RSD concept, but I'm wondering if it's worth a shot. Any advice, specifically regarding the Phoenix AZ area? What are the odds, when should I show up, etc. I know there are mixed feelings about RSD and I'd rather not debate that here, but instead just get an idea of what to expect and how to approach it if you are trying to get a specific album.

Got it! So stoked.

Yes!!

I don't know if I can wait till June to listen to this whole thing!
