RSD 2013

I'm surprised that there was not a thread about this but did anybody hit up Record Store Day yesterday?

I got to the store about 2.5 hrs before the store opened and luckily the line then wasn't too long since the weather was cold as Hell (it's Buffalo, afterall). By the time the store was ready to open, though, the line was running thru most of the plaza that the store as in. The only exclusive I wanted but wasn't able to grab a copy of was the New Found Glory album of Ramones covers. Here's what I DID pick up:

- Brother Ali's "Shadows on the Sun" 2x 12" picture disc
- The Uncluded (new group on Rhymesayers) 7" single
- "Demosexual" 7" single (a pair of unused Atmosphere demos under a different name)
- Snapcase "Steps" 7" EP
- Non Phixion "I Shot Reagan" 7" EP
- Silverstein/August Burns Red split 7" single
- a South Park 7" picture disc with "San Diego" and "Fish Sticks" on it.

Thought this year's offerings were disappointing and didn't go.

Yeah, not much struck me this year either. I spent a little over half of what I did last year. The South Park one was the one I was most excited for, oddly enough, since I don't think full versions of those songs had been released before.

Only thing I was really interested in this year was JD McPherson's Fire Bug, but I don't think my local store even got that one. At the very least, it was absent from the preview pic they posted of the stock they received.
