Record Store Day 2020

My record store of choice, Jumbo in Leeds, did it where you booked slots so will be there on Saturday spending some vouchers I got for my birthday. Main picks for me were BMX Bandits, Cure, Carter USM, Bowie, FSOL, Pastels, U2, Vaselines and a Ska compilation

Looks like your list is similar to mine. Glad you're not ahead of me in the queue at my local!

Nice to see another fan of Pastels, Vaselines & BMX Bandits on here - Scottish indie rules!!!

Want that Craig Finn album but no way I'm queing up for hours only to be told they didn't have it in in the first place or the one copy they had has gone hours ago.

Banquet have 20+ copies, so it may be worth checking out their stock at 6pm when it goes live.

Jeez, how many times people? All unsold stock will go online on Saturday evening - you'll almost certainly be able to buy it somewhere!

For a bunch of people who are happy to stand in a field in all weather for 5 days, you're an awful bunch of lightweights! 🙂

Alright, alright! :D

I hate getting up early and Probe is tiny, can't see them allowing more that 3 at a time in there.

Tomorrow's list is a little bit weak for me. I get why they've done it but spreading the releases over three dates rather than one leaves me with none of the dates having enough to justify dragging myself out of bed. Had they released everything on the same day I'd probably have done it but won't be bothering this time.

I'll probably look online in the evening to see if I can pick up anything that does interest me but won't be too disappointed if what I'd like is already gone by then.

 why not phone them up and see if they have it and how many copies. Then if you want to go walk the queue asking if people are going to buy it. If they are back home. 

May  ot be worth getting up of course

Not half as scary as it used to be when Pete Burns worked there.

An older friend of mine was in a few bands in the 80s and a touring musician - he has told me about how Pete would be quite clear on his thoughts about your purchases. He once went in and had hold of one of his own albums, and Pete wasn't too complimentary. 😂

My tweet made it on to this when he passed away...

Very slick at Jumbo in Leeds. Had a slot noon to 1pm and was number 1 in that hour. Went in and they had my stuff waiting for me. Got all bar 2 of what I wanted- missed out on the Cure and BMX Bandits. So will try online tonight

    • It was great, but I don't know why they continue to play Wide Lovely Eyes and Rings of Saturn, which are the weakest of the tracks off both PTSA and ST. Well, I do. It's cos they're about Suzie, so he can sing what he wants. They're the low points of the set. The rest is ace.
    • I didn't this time, but I've seen them before and just because you saw both that night doesn’t mean you can compare them. The Stones were great, but.you didn't think so and you went somewhere else looking for a good time and you found it. For whatever reason you didn't like it, but you were an outlier and all the reviews said they were great.
    • Annie Lennox could be the one to unite the whole forum, nobody has a bad word to say about her, even noted curmudgeon Skip 😄 I'd probably even amble along for a bit meself, and i'm also a miserable sod 
    • If the below link works - thats interesting.   While I don't particularly put much stock in that account as a source (never seen it before though, tbf), and I can pick a hole or two (see below) in what he says - the timing of it is a week before I had the Fontaines '27 stadium info (same stadium he says on there, Tottenham). The info, or part of it, matches up.   Holes I'd pick: I'd have to watch again but I THINK he says 'end of year' for Tottenham - not possible, for a number of reasons, though he's probably just got his words mixed up there. It's Summer '27, or that's what I've been told. He also says Glastonbury is/would be based on how the album does. That doesn't stack up to me, unless it was a 2028 thing. I suppose that could stack up, i.e a verbal agreement for 2028, but still seems a bit of an odd approach. I would personally still expect it to be 2027 alongside the stadium gigs, IF they are gonna do it, though I've still not got a Scooby when the album is gonna drop, only that the tour is due for Spring (or early) next year.   Interesting, nonetheless.   https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaOB3Q9qkwW/
    • I was hoping that they would just do a tour like they were set to in 2020, rather than having Download as their UK appearance. If they are at DL, I would be surprised to see them headline. I think they sub under Deftones or SOAD
