Jon in DC posted this yesterday and I know our readers in Austin will definitely be interested!
THEY’RE HERE! The thing a lot of you are looking forward to, of course, are the special pieces coming to your favorite record store on April 16. Here’s a list of them, one you can print out, check off and take to your local record store. We’re doing things a little differently this year, so you’ll see a few different categories here:
RECORD STORE DAY RELEASES: These are titles that are only being released for this day. These are true Record Store Day Exclusives.
“WINDOWED” RELEASES: These are titles that will only be available in record stores on Record Store Day, but will someday be available to other retailers down the line.
REGIONAL/SMALL RUN RELEASES: These are titles that are being released only to a certain region of stores, or have such a small run or distribution that the majority of participating stores will not have access to them. We feel it’s important to include these releases and celebrate the spirit in which they are released.
And remember: LIMITED EDITION, BABY. A lot of these titles have limited runs. You may not get your hands on all the pieces you want. Your STORE may not get their hands on all the pieces they want. That’s the nature of limited releases. But that’s what makes them so exciting!
