Since there will, no doubt, be many questions and some confusion regarding the releases, I figured I'd post the link to a great interview with RSD Co-Founder and Criminal Records Owner, ERIC LEVIN. He addresses many problems and answers several tough questions regarding RSD11. If you want some insight, check it out at Wax Poetic:

I am sorry, but that is just unacceptable. How do you have a incomplete list almost 3 weeks before the event???

You have the list broken into 3 groups, some of the numbers/quantities seem to be different than a label's own press release.

Where is the City and Colour? Where are the 4 Revelation Record Releases? What about the stuff just announced yesterday by Spinefarm? Are the Spinefarm releases all UK only?

I know for a fact that Record stores have had this list, exactly as it shown, in their inbox to review/vet for nearly 2 weeks. How does a store not let the RSD people know about releases missing? Hell, where is the Porchlight guy who *personally* told us here that he helped pack the Earth LP on Green Vinyl (not on the list) to get that release listed?

Last time I checked, I can go to http://www.ilcdistro.com/site/new and find their RSD PDF and see what markets these limited 7"s are likely going to be at.

This is the *FOURTH* year of RSD, not the first. I know it is run by volunteers, but get your SHIT together. This isn't amateur hour. This is what happens when you have nearly 300 items, people start doing things half-ass.

It's even worse overseas. You have a UK list and a list from the Netherlands that don't even jive. So are we going to have a unique RSD event for each country in Europe? That'd be a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

I guess the good thing is that the list could be edited/updated. And it needs to be done quickly. We haven't even heard what crazy release(s) that Jack White's Third Man Records are doing this year (he did his announcement late last year, but got the Raconteurs 180g repress out to a lot of stores).

It is just frustrating when these releases are planned since January and you have 4 months to get this shit organized and planned and it comes out incomplete. It's like buying a car without an engine. Rant over.
