scottheisel Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 More details on the RSD thing: On April 19th, Record Store Day, Third Man Records will present Jack White recording the World's Fastest Released Record, studio-to-store, in the history of mankind. You heard correctly. First thing in the morning, Jack White will take the stage in Third Man's blue room and record direct-to-acetate what will serve as the limited edition version of his next single, a live rendition of the title track from his upcoming LP Lazaretto. The masters will be rushed over to United Record Pressing who will immediately begin pressing 45s. The sleeves will be printed from pictures taken at the show. The finished records will be whisked back to Third Man to sell to awaiting fans. All in the same day. All in a matter of mere hours. As long as there are fans in line waiting to buy the single, United will continue to press and deliver them to Third Man to sell. Even if it takes all day. In addition, Whirlwind Heat will appear at Third Man to play their first live show since 2006 (and likely their last ever), as their TMR classic Do Rabbits Wonder? LP is reissued on a variety of colored vinyl for Record Store Day. Plus a great selection of local vendors will be on hand to keep everyone well-fed and refreshed... and there will, as always, be some surprises. Tickets for this whole day - "Ultra Tickets" - are extremely limited and will be available exclusively through The Third Man Records Vault to Platinum Members. Ultra Ticket holders will get to watch Jack White live recording his World's Fastest Record, Whirlwind Heat's afternoon performance, and will receive copies of both The World's Fastest Record 7" and the Whirlwind Heat Record Store Day LP release--all without having to wait in line! Vault Platinum members who are ticket holders need only show up, see Jack White play, hang out for a bit and eat, watch Whirlwind Heat (last show EVER??) and then, as they leave, pick up their bag with both RSD releases. No lines. No stress. For those who can't score tickets, The World's Fastest Record will be made available for sale from the front of Third Man Records as soon as copies are pressed. Anybody who shows up that day during business hours wanting to purchase a copy will get one. Third Man promises to deliver until all customers are satisfied (one per customer, obviously!). The World's Fastest Record will only be available at Third Man Records on Record Store Day. One time only! Ultra Tickets for Record Store Day will be available via The Vault Pre-Sale ticket store at 3pm CT today, Thursday, April 3rd. NOT A VAULT MEMBER?

ChardeeMacDennis Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Would like one more for a buddy if someone purchased one and can't make arrangements to be there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I love the idea of the "Fastest Studio to Store" single. It sounds like a lot of fun but it will definitely be sold for about $2,345,734 on eBay many, many times. Would love to get my own copy but have absolutely no plans on getting myself to Nashville for one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzersonKillwell Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Would like one more for a buddy if someone purchased one and can't make arrangements to be there! I dunno how it works but I have a platinum membership and will not be going. If I can get you a ticket or something let me know. Unless they are sold out. Which they probably are now that I think of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancey47 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Probably going to sign up for the vault for this one. Good thing there's usually about 2 months to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaine Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Probably going to sign up for the vault for this one. Good thing there's usually about 2 months to do it. I believe the deadline for this vault is April 30. stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oojavaguru Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I know its a longshot, but if anyone has an extra for the RSD show, let me know. I'd give you a White Wall Triple Decker, Rome Colored 2LP and a couple of other goodies for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxv Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I predict a lot of expensive but warped "fastest records" out there since they obviously aren't going to wait for them to cool properly after they are pressed before "whisking them back to Third Man".. Neat but flawed concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neat but flawed concept. yup. this is going to be nothing but trouble I bet... at least for the people who actually want to listen to the music.

Neat but flawed concept. apparently they're going to start pressing them right after 10:00 AM and they won't be available for pickup until around 4.

RustyShackelford Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I wonder if someone there will be a dick and yell something ridiculous just so it'll get on the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 If someone going yells "San Dimas High School Football Rules!" and it makes the record I will send you a test press from my personal collection. bossdj26, scottheisel, smailtronic and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Ive been at several other live shows there, were no one has done that before (at least that I noticed and/or got captured on vinyl.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stl_ben Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 they could just start the song over again.... It doesn't have to be the first take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChardeeMacDennis Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 i saw on nashville craiglist that some people are selling these for 400-500 bucks a ticket. jack fans will probably go for it too...thats crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 they could just start the song over again.... It doesn't have to be the first take. If it is being recorded straight to acetate it seems like it would have to be all in one take. But I guess they could just use a new one. And then make the "discarded" version part of the next vault.
