    If you are in the United States, it will NOT be available for purchase at Target until SUNDAY September 20th. In other words...TOMORROW!!!

    If you are outside the United States, then there is no Target deal and it will be available in all stores that sell music on it's release day.

    If you are in Australia, then yes, today is Sunday and you should be able to go to any music store and buy it because there is no exclusive Target deal in your country. And you are correct, the release day in your country was Friday the 18th. Good luck!

    I had that happen here in Canada...I asked the person at the independent record shop that I used to fuckin' support when I was younger (with the hundreds of records I used to by there), and she looked at me all blank, "Who?".

    I said that it would be coming out on Sunday and she said that "New albums NEVER come out on a Sunday...We'll have it available on Tuesday when new albums are ALWAYS released..." And yeah, I was trying to get my hands on it a day early, you know, for shits and giggles, but it was a NO GO. They were very stern about it. Not even on the day of official release....I'll get it on Monday in Seattle and support Easy Street. It will probably be $30 here anyway cuz it would be considered an "import"... yeeesh... :roll:

    I talked to my Target today. A clerk in electonics where the music is too. The electronics and music managers weren't in. The album goes on sale tomorrow, presumably at the opening bell. The T shirts will be in the electronics / music dept also, but he doesnt know how many or if they are in various or just one size. Hope this helps

    I haven't checked with Target, although the list posted on the boards earlier stated that all of our local stores will have the album...The main "indie" (if you can call Gray Whale indie) shop has Pearl Jam front and center in their windows stating that they will be carrying Backspacer on release day. It is easily the largest piece of advertisement in their window at the moment...I was surprised to see it there. :mrgreen:

    I have only run into a handful of people that I have gotten into musical discussions with that didn't know who Pearl Jam was...and all of them were from small towns in the middle of nowhere...then again, the only 16 year olds I ever come in contact with happen to be the ones hanging around with my 16 year old sister. They either come from musically enlightened families or we have taken it upon ourselves to "enlighten" them, haha. Just about all of them love PJ. Gives me a glimmer of hope for the future. :lol:

    So did I! I would never bother with Target in this country to get a copy of an album on day of release. Waste of time.

    There is a list of the independent shops that belong to this coalition you can get to from the pj's charities and action page, its a fairly short list. So its possible not all small shops have it, maybe just the ones on the list. Just a guess.

    Also my Target has just today received the Tshirts, they are med, large, extra large and run small as this same brand did on the last pj shirt I saw on pj's goods section. So as of now my Target has all the Backspacer products including 12 in vinyl album and 7 in Fixer, reg and Rock Band Backspacer and the tee. Salem Oregon,
    the tee is not on their web site I didnt check it for all the products

    I cant get Bacspacer to run on Winamp or Real Player, guess I will go the help site next
