I don't know if I just got to the store around here participating too late, but their selection was quite a bit slimmer than usual. I'm thinking maybe more people were buying stuff today than usual.

Anyway, I got:

Vampire Weekend exclusive 7"

Black Keys - Attack and Release

where'd you go? i didn't see vampire weekend anywhere. i went to soundgarden and record and tape traders.

I'm hoping that more stores get involved and also do cooler things. My two stores didn't do much to begin with. They had $1 sales and % off but nothing else. They wanted to but said that waited til the last minute. The one thing that they both commented is that they were unable to get a lot of the releases that were scheduled to be out on RSD.

next year i'm taking the day off and hitting every store i can nice and early.

it was so rad seeing so many people getting vinyl. there was someone looking through every row at all times. you basically had to get in line and move down as the person in front of you finished looking through their row.

and honestly, 11 lps and 2 7"s for about $85? yes please!

yeah, the dude that runs Redscroll records in Wallingford, Ct said he looked into getting the exclusive releases, but there was so many hoops to jump through that it wasnt even worth it.

My local stores didn't really do anything beyond the basic RSD deals. The best one was 10% off LPs, and they didn't really have anything. The people at my favorite store were being really pissy because they were so busy and they just wanted to watch the bands play. Obviously you're gonna be busy, you work in a record store on fucking Record Store Day, asshole. And the place is so tiny, you can hear the band playing out the door and down the street. STFU and give me some records. They were advertising all the usual RSD deals, but when I did the stuff in order to get the free vinyl, they obviously weren't just gonna give it to me. Every time I had to be like, "So...don't I get _____?" If you're not gonna do your job, gtfo and I'll leave the damn money on the counter.

But really, I got 12 records, and only paid for 5. Pretty sweet day. I'll list them tomorrow.

Hey Pat, was this on multiple colors or was it some kind of mix? Also, would you possibly be able to pick one up for me?

if you want, i know he had one other copy when i left. but he's charging ten bucks, and it'll probably be at least another five to ship it. canada sux. let me know if you're interested though.

Soundgarden. My friend and I totally bought the last two Vampire Weekend 7"s, sorry dude!

If it makes you feel any better, the rehearsal version of Oxford Comma isn't that great. I was hoping for like an alternate version, but it's basically a lesser quality recording of the same song.

I also stumbled right after I picked it up, propelling the 7" right out of the case and onto the filthy floor.

Soundgarden had a pretty shitty selection though. I usually have better luck there.

i happened to be over in Sacramento yesterday. The Beat wasn't doing anything really, but R5 was having a big event, w/ bands playing, record swap, r'n'r garage sale, etc.

i picked up the breeders 7" for a buddy. 4.99 w/ $2 bucks off. nice.

at the record swap i got:

alk3 - maybe i'll catch fire black $5

rancid - let's go 2xlp white $15

atdi - in/casino/out casino clear $5

not a bad haul. not bad at aaalll.

and at dimple in roseville i found another alk3 goddamnit reissue (red). 2 of them actually.

dimple through in that record store day comp and another vinyl sampler. if anyone wants those for some reason, let me know.
