What does it actualy do for ME thought?
Sales?
Open later?
NOTHING, I bet.
Good on em ,but...

open till midnight would be awesome, i always get an itch for record shopping at eleven or so on a friday night

I think polyester is open till 10 or 11 on a friday night.
I got some shit real late one night.

I will make sure I buy a record on this day.

that's awesome, though I'm in Sydney and the only thing likely to be still open at that time is JB Hi-Fi

bump, i think utopia is participating, dunno what with though.

day of record fair in glebe

day of record fair in glebe

Yay! Let's all spend all our record-buying money on second-hand records at the fair and then have nothing left to spend on actual record stores :)

Tomorrow!

CELEBRATE RECORD STORE DAY, SATURDAY APRIL 19TH AT THE UK'S BEST RECORD STORE, ROUGH TRADE EAST!

Instore performances by:
The Veils
Billy Bragg
make Model
The Metros...

Greville St Records appear to be celebrating on Sunday with an in store performance including Tim Rogers, Lisa Miller, Chris Wilson, Paul Dempsey and Rowland S Howard.

i always thought red eye is an independent record store.
doesn't seem to give a shit or mention about this day.

When I have my own record store everyone is invited for ROCK'N'ROLL DANCE PARTYS AND HOTDOGS AND CHIPPIES ALL DAY AWWW YEAAAHHH 360 BABY.

I'm going to spend Record Store Day, that's right, buying records.

Make sure not to buy them in a record store.

Nah, buying records online ain't nearly as much fun.

Hey, I'm working in a record store today....

Jeff Lang playing at Basement Discs in the city. You'll need a crowbar to get in there with all the people.

i'm very gutted that i can't be in london today. It would be very cool to see the Veils and Braggster at rough trade

is rowland really playing tomorrow? this is great!

The Tame Impala EP is up on discogs for $185!! Balls

Thanks round and round for the sea and cake first album, Julian cope with a turtle shell on his back and tuxedomoon's half-mute. I got a free turntable slip as well. Dj bollocks even a baby sat my kids for ten minutes!

Thank you record store day.

I got the last Relationship of Command a Polyester but couldn't find the Hold Steady 7'' anywhere. Dropped by Thornbury Records about an hour after they'd opened and their RSD exclusives rack looked like a bomb had hit it. Their $15 bargain bin had some gold though.

For stuck at work all day... I assume the chances of me getting relationship of command today are slim...
Was also after the Neil young 'old ways' reissue, the Bowie 'drive-in Saturday' 7'' and some of the orange juice releases. Anyone see any of those around?

That first sentence was meant to say that I was at work all day yesterday. Not sure what happened.

Relationship is going $100 on eBay already. Ghostface, can you confirm there was 7000 pressed?

What cunts they are trying to make money on the Internet off the back of a day that's meant to be about going into a shop. Fucking thieves.

Is the RSD pressing of Relationship Of Command any good anyway? Most people don't seem to care what they're buying or where it's sourced from, thinking just because it's on record it's going to be good. The whole point of getting the record is supposed to be because of the superior sound, but most people buy it because of stupid fetishism. It probably sounds exactly the same as the CD. This is my main gripe with most record stores these days and what they choose to stock. I wish more employees could tell me about the quality of pressing because I'm not really interested in recommendations.

/rant

I kind of agree but I'm a completist with ATDI so I gotta have them all.

I think it's coming out on regular non-limited vinyl anyway.

I'm all for cool actual limited edition RSD releases of stuff you'll never get anywhere else made especially for the day, but the parade of substandard reissues and repackaged crap can blow me.

im spewing.. missed out on everything i wanted. anybody seen any cut copy albums still floating around?

I saw Cut Copy LPs and Bowie Drive In Saturday 7'' at Title in Surry Hills yesterday, maybe they can send them interstate if needed

Record Store Day cupcakes at Off the Hip and a LOUD PA. Should have been good there on the day. Was at Basement Discs but not all day this time. Was a Iggy and the Stooges 7 inch of RAW POWER with a t-shirt release for Record Story Day.

How much was Bright Like Neon Love?

kinghound you should check out the Steve Hoffman forums. There is a wealth of knowledge there about different pressings and where they are sourced from ect.

I missed out on the Tame Impala one! sad
