    Beady Eye (although haven't determined if I think they suck yet)
    Gorillaz
    Mumford & Sons
    Kings of Leon


    I went to the record store last year... it was actually lots of fun! Haven't decided if I'm going this year, but if I do... anything I should try picking up for boardmembers?

    Possibly the Pink Floyd 12" and Peter Tosh and Charlotte Gainsbourg 7"es.
    So what's the story with this? I remember vaguely hearing about it last year. Do I just go to one of my local shops and hope they have these pressings?

    I'm excited for the
    Tron soundtrack LP
    Wild Flag 7" (best new band of 2011!)
    Maybe the Kill Rock Stars comp depending on what's on it.

    yea. you can see if there are any participating near you. all of these are released on that day... usually there are a few that are rare and everyone wants (so some people get in line early). Store may do some other promo stuff too. I got in line pretty early... there's a mad scramble once you once they open up. Gets the blood flowing! It also varies from store to store. I think some hardly get anything in.

    Awesome. All of my favorite record stores are participating (not surprised) and one store that I haven't been to yet but should probably check out since it's called 99 Cent Records.
    Thanks, Missy!

    HAHA sure. Yeah. I remember having to break out of my nerd shell last year as a bunch of guys with lists yelled names of 7" over my head at a counter and were handed the last copies of stuff right behind me. OOF!

    Thats crap!

    Sadly enough Im not excited about much music these days. The only ones that looked some what enticing to me were the pink floyd and rush records. When I moved to SF there were soooooo many stores, now there are only a few left. And this is in the largest DJ city in the world. SAD!

    But on a happy note Im glade they even have a record store day :D

    I'm excited, but don't know if I will have the cash this year :(

    Last year was my first time and I picked up a bunch of cool stuff!

    I've never heard of Record Store Day before, on account of my never being to a real record store. MCR picture vinyl would make a nice display piece...

    Kozik is ready, looks like he's put in a lot of work for this release... :twisted:
    You can guess what's on the back.

    The Opeth 7" is the only thing I'd consider picking up, and that's a huge maybe.

    I've got my checklist all marked up with what I'd like to get...I anticipate disappointment, so any scores at all will be huge...

    13th Floor Elevators
    Big Star
    Dio
    John Fahey
    Grinderman
    Machine Head
    Mastodon/ZZ Top
    Opeth
    Pink Floyd
    Rush
    Sonic Youth
    Velvet Underground
    Peter Tosh

    among others...

    As an aside, I just got Obscura's Omnivium on some sea-foam green marbled vinyl the other day - such an awesome recording - any metalhead should have a copy!

    Good luck everyone!

    I'm looking for the new 7" by Big Audio Dynamite.
    This site says it's in the UK only on RSD.
    http://vinylfanatics.com/index.php/news ... k-releases

    Can someone in the UK, planning on going to RSD, get me a copy?
    I can send the funds for the purchase and shipping prior to the 16th.

    Yes, I like BAD. The FIRST band, that is.
    I saw them here in New Haven back in '89 or '90.
    I know they will be in NYC next week, but I just don't see myself making it. :|

    I need a Rekords Rekords Record 10-inch. It has a queens of the stone age song on it and a few other tracks...

    If you pick me up a copy, I will make it worth your effort.

    My store got zero.

    I have terrible luck at record stores; I try to support local here in Philly (AKA and Repo, mainly) but the last two times I tried to get a "day of" release (the most recent being PEER AMID by Skull Defekts feat. Daniel Higgs) they didn't get it.

    Nor did they have it a week later.
    Or two weeks later.

    Given my contempt for Amazon, I eventually itunes'd it. Ugh. Still want the inhand item, so maybe I'll try again.

    Guess who got the awesome Kozik RSD toy pictured above? Lucky!

    Picked up:
    The Flaming Lips
    Sid Barrett
    Regina Spektor
    Sonic Youth
    Gorillaz
    bag of miscellaneous schwag...

    Some dude next to me bought all the Pearl Jam copies the store got...2 or 3 of a couple of different releases...didn't know Pearl Jam was even flippable!

    Let me know if you need a Kozik RSD TFIS for your collection!
