Record Store Day release

[Pootytang]

From Record Store Day website:

Record Store Day is celebrated worldwide, and sometimes special releases are available in one country, but not in another. That’s the case with Beastie Boys’ RSD release, a 7” single for “Make Some Noise/Make Some Noise (Passion Pit remix)”. It couldn’t get into US stores in time, but the band wanted to benefit a good cause and make some US based peeps happy at the same time, so in a very rare move, www.recordstoreday.com will be selling an extremely small amount of these 7” singles online, with all proceeds going to the American Red Cross Japan Relief fund. These bad boys will go on sale the morning of Record Store Day, April 16, at 6 AM Eastern.
Special rules will apply to this sale on www.recordstoreday.com:

*Sales will be made to US physical addresses only
*One “Make Some Noise” 7” single per order
*One order per household.

Look for more information on www.recordstoreday.com on Record Store Day at 6 AM Eastern. This is a very unusual thing for us to do, as Record Store Day is dedicated to supporting the physical record stores who participate. However, along with Beastie Boys, we found ourselves in a position to make some folks happy while raising much-needed funds. We could not pass it up.

I wonder if this means the UK won't being seeing it on their shelves.

[dirtydan11]

Shit not in Canada oh well, still cool though

[smith7800]

Pretty cool of them to do.

[Pootytang]

This means 5am central, 4am mountain and 3am western. 5 am on a saturday is gonna be hard to do, but I guess it'll be worth it.

Record Store Day last year was an absolute blast. Drove around for hours trying to get copies of the "Super Surprise 12" (http://www.flickr.com/photos/37445525@N04/4529572093/) " managed 2 copies. (Record shops in my area are pretty rare now)

Pro Tip: 2 out of three shops had no clue or lied.

Shop 1, had RSD promo CD's but no RSD releases. Didn't know they had to sign up to receive releases.

Shop 2, Awesome, had the goods, and bunches of freebies, (Stickers, shirts, etc.) They were awesome!

Shop 3, an hour after they opened, said they sold out of ALL of their record store releases of EVERYTHING. But also had NOTHING RSD related in store, or on their site. (I think they e-bay'd whatever they did get in.)

So the tip is, Make sure to plan to hit more than one store if you're going out for anything that will be an in-store item this year. Go Go Google maps!

This years list seems WAY bigger than last year's list of releases.

Good luck grabbing the Make Some Noise vinyl guys/girls.

In store it's looking like this for me.

Roy Orbison
Only The Lonely (mono)/Oh, Pretty Woman (live from Holland)
7" 45

RHCP / Ramones
Havana Affair
7" 45

Peter Tosh
Legalize It b/w Equal Rights
7" 45

Dio
Killing The Dragon
Numbered, Hologram Sticker, Poly Sleeve, Picture Vinyl. Full album.

Buck Owens
Close Up The Honky Tonks/My Heart Skips A Beat
7" 45

[Beat C]

I went to my local store and he has most of the stuff in already. I know which ones he ain't got or gonna get too.

A few tips on how to get RSD limited edition release:

1)Buy your music all year at the local record shop.
(loyalty goes a long way)

2) Get to know the owner.

3) Seven weeks before RSD ask the owner if you can see the list of available RSD releases.

4) Make your specific requests asap. Offer to Pre-pay.

5) Enjoy the music before RSD! :cool:

So far...

Phish: Two Soundchecks 7"

Rolling Stones: Brown Sugar/ Bitch/ Let it Rock 7"

Gram Parsons: Love Hurts 7"

The Doors: Riders On the Storm 7"

Derek and the Dominos: Got to get better.../layla 7"

Kings of Leon: holy roller novocaine 10"

I wonder if this means the UK won't being seeing it on their shelves.

All the owners I know / have contacted over here seem pretty certain...time will tell.

[Pootytang]

I just spoke with a friend in the UK and the UK stores will have it available.

[bigfatlove06]

This means 5am central, 4am mountain and 3am western. 5 am on a saturday is gonna be hard to do, but I guess it'll be worth it.

WAKE UP POOTY! Cop yours? :D

[prof_d_boiz]

Got mine!!!

But I have to say that was the most disorganized event ever???? WTF!!!

[bigfatlove06]

It worked out. I was just happy that by the time I finished putting in all of the CC information I didn't get a message saying "Sorry, this item is no longer in stock".

[Sir SkratchaLot]

I (think) I got mine. My shipping and home address are different and I couldn't figure out how to change my billing address so I just put it in the "special instructions" spot. I hope it worked. Then I sent a follow up e-mail. [crosses fingers]

[bigfatlove06]

So Prof D..

Have you been able to source any MSN releases other than this one, EU promo CD, and US promo CD?

[Micodin]

It took a minute to find the link. I was ready at 6.

But it worked out.

Sigh.

[prof_d_boiz]

That's all I got so far BFL

Now this is a damn shame.

Nice job by Rough Trade putting an adhesive sticker on the cover of a limited 7".

[Pootytang]

I over slept. Thank god I had a back up plan. Someone in the UK is sending me 2 copies. YAY!!!

[bigfatlove06]

Ha! I have a back up coming from the UK as well. If the releases are identical I will sell one of them at cost to whomever has the best sob story about how they got screwed out of getting one... RSD is out of them at 8:00.

[Micodin]

I aint selling shit.

This year, I got mine (at least that's what the email says). :p

I was refreshing the screen since slightly before 5 a.m. But it was tough for me to find the link, then I was shaking while entering the credit card number -- I'm foggy before I have my coffee.

[fonky pizza]

I'll be biking around for record store day in Milan today!(y)

[bigfatlove06]

I'll be biking around for record store day in Milan today!(y)

While you are out if you find any of these that are ACTUALLY PRESSED IN Italy I would be eternally grateful if you could grab a copy (of course I would pay for them)

Licensed to Ill on CD or Vinyl
Paul's Boutique on CD (Remastered)
Check Your Head on CD (Remastered)
Hello Nasty on CD (original or remastered)
The Sounds of Science Anthology CD
To The 5 Boroughs CD
Solid Gold Hits on CD or CD with bonus DVD
The Mix Up CD

At some point releases in Italy turned into "made in EU" releases, but I still hope to find these!

[JoLovesMCA]

I called Sound Revolution and asked if they were participating. I got so happy when they said yes and then said NO we don't have the Beastie Boys they only gave us a limited amount (on other bands). Damn it man, still looking around. :p

edit: Oh duh okay the guy at the other store told me it was for UK only by store, well thought I'd try!

[pip07]

I got mine. I just hope its not the same 7inch from the deluxe package

[b-grrrlie]

I ain't got no US adress and I ain't in the UK so I couldn't cop it :( *starts waterworks*

[jayjacobson16]

Man I hope they release a regular single for CD and vinyl. One that you can just buy at a record store or something.

[Rodie]

Man I hope they release a regular single for CD and vinyl. One that you can just buy at a record store or something.

Yeah I really hope they do some CD singles as well.

[Documad]

with some artwork -- they used to be really clever about that stuff - enough with the plain white wrapper

[Brother McDuff]

^


the MSN cover is vintage-latter-era-bboys (if that makes sense). in the same vain as the 'ch-check it out' cover.

[jayjacobson16]

Too bad the record store day single doesn't have that cover. At least the ones on Ebay don't.

[Beat C]

Ha! I have a back up coming from the UK as well. If the releases are identical I will sell one of them at cost to whomever has the best sob story about how they got screwed out of getting one... RSD is out of them at 8:00.

I woke up in shock realizing that I f*cked up! looked at the clock hoping it was still early...7:58am...crap...by the time I tried to buy it was 8:03am EST it said error...I said "F*ck"

Lessen learned: the only reason even the nice blond Bartender is giving you the "smiles" bla bla... she really just wants a nice tip. Which she did because she seems to always leave one drink off the tab.

I had to get friend to pick me up from the bar. I got home set my alarm for 8:30am because I though "hey that will be plenty of time to get sober and get to work"...totally forgetting that I wanted to buy the 7"

As soon as I opened my eyes I Knew I forgot! Please hook me up with an extra! PM please

Wow, quite a story. I feel your pain.

Douche.

[Beat C]

I aint selling shit.

to: Micodin,

Thanks for the bump and I hope you maintain your promise to not sell shit/your music.

So bigfat...r u gonna show me some love if the two copies you get are the same?

[Micodin]

to: Micodin,

Thanks for the bump and I hope you maintain your promise to not sell shit/your music.

You sound like a pathetic Herb asking people to hook you up with the 7".

Just eBay it. It's not our fault your a doucher that forgot that it went on sale at 6am.

I do promise not to sell my shit/music and to send you a picture of my Record Store Day 7" when it arrives in the mail.

Douche.

[Beat C]

Can someone, other than micodic, verify that "a pathetic Herb" is a legit insult or a even a way to describe someone? Is that commonly used in anyone elses vernacular, really?

Micodin, maybe you didn't understand the reason I wrote the post. This should help elevate your concern, with regards to how I sound.

If the releases are identical I will sell one of them at cost to whomever has the best sob story about how they got screwed out of getting one... RSD is out of them at 8:00.

bigfatlove was being nice by offering a fellow Beastie fan his extra. I would rather sound like a dork then pay extremely high "pathetic herb" prices on ebay.
_____________^^^^^^^^ that's how I would use those words next to each other.

[Micodin]

Herb:
1. (noun) Nerd; dork; geek; generally uncool person. Originated in early 1980s Burger King ad campaign in which a nerd named HERB was featured. The term was subsequently embraced by the hip hop generation.

Know your hip-hop history douche.

anyone?

[bigfatlove06]

anyone?

Sorry dude, getting hammered and missing the on-line sale doesn't exactly qualify as a compelling story.

The winner via PM is a board member who sent this:

"I am a midget. I don't want to assume that you are not also a midget, but based on the context of your previous posts, I am willing to bet that you are not. Only a midget can appreciate the humiliation involved with not being able to reach the 7" single display. The shame associated with having to ask for help from my local purveyor to procure my limited edition single erstwhile giant aggressive height conscious people rape me of the fruits of my preparation has made me question my place in this world; and ultimately, whether or not we will ever live in a world where a midget can get a record."

Midgets of the world unite.

[MCScoobyT]

anyone?

I'm not for name calling on message boards but I have done it, and herb is pretty light compared to some of the stuff dropped around here.

Anywho, yes I can back that herb was a dissed term used in late 80's early 90's hip-hop. EPMD, 3rd Bass and maybe even De La Soul come to mind as group's that dropped it in lyrics.

As far as your little verbal tiff... K.I.M. (that's Keep It Moving if you don't speak early 90's hip-hop vernacular). ;)

...6) Wake up

[Micodin]

...6) Wake up

douche

That's all I was trying to say.

I set my alarm at 5:45, got all my info in and waited. Refreshed and waited. Until after 6 there was finally a link.

I'm a true collector of vinyl and last year at RSD just like the rest of the nice people on the board I was at the local record shop at the crack ass of dawn looking for the Mystery White Label. (I snagged 2 by the way).

If you really wanted to participate in the fun of RSD and getting the rare chance of copping some rare vinyl. Get your priorities in check.

Douchey Herb.

'herbert' is quite big around my brother and his friends at the moment.

At some point releases in Italy turned into "made in EU" releases, but I still hope to find these!

I'm afraid I'll have to keep on living without your eternal gratitude cause I finally stayed at the park playing basketball that day.

BTW, anyone noticed the super well furnished on line international bookstore on the main page?(y)
(that is linked to Il libraccio, where I already sold some of my comicbooks!)

You may find the EU releases you're looking for.

[Documad]

has anyone received their copy or know when they're supposed to ship?

Anytime after 4/22 as far as I can understand
