Record Store Day 2018

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

This year it's on April 21st & the full list has been published

I'd be interested in the new The Cure remixes (Torn Down) but someone at UMG has decided to make it a picture disc. :?
Cheers.

I read somewhere there is BOWIE - Earl's Court 78

First time I saw him

Our local stores seemed to have a really decent selection this year - the Cure picture disc was in evidence, and saw the Tom Waits vinyl.
In the end I went for a couple of Sigur Ros ltd editions.
Great to see the stores so crowded too.

I'd wait until June when it gets a proper black vinyl release & not a mickey mouse wall clock picture disc thing.
Cheers.

Yes, I think it attracts some of the "investor" types, not actual music fans.

TBH one of the reasons I shelled out for the records I got, is to listen to them (and save to digital formats) and then put them away to occasionally get out and enjoy having them, but in the end, hope to turn in a profit when I can do with the cash. So, not just purely for the music... :roll:

Only thing worth getting was the Wipers live record, to be honest. Had my hands on the Hillbillies from Hell compilation as well, but was far too expensive. I don't think I like RSD anyway.
