We’re super excited about Record Store Day 2016 this Saturday! This year we will be celebrating the exclusive vinyl release of our big RSD 2015 event, The Sonics: Live At Easy Street! This absolutely smokin' slab of garage rock ferocity will be available at all participating Record Store Day stores, but we are the only store in the world that will be carrying the Easy Street Special Edition, a limited run of 500, which will include the following:

* Custom-screened, hand-numbered outer sleeve

* Copy of signed set list

* Ticket for the event

* Download card good for two free bonus songs from the concert not included on the album

* Detailed liner notes by Easy Street president Matt Vaughan (a great read!)

The Sonics’ Record Store Day in-store last year was one of the biggest and most awesome events we’ve ever put on, featuring guests such as Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder and Mike McCready, Ben Shepherd (Soundgarden), the Screaming Trees’ Mark Pickerel and Van Conner, Emily Nokes (Tacocat), Chris Ballew (Presidents Of The United States Of America, Caspar Babypants), Matt Lukin (Mudhoney), and many others (including original Sonics bassist Andy Parypa). The album was mixed by legendary NW producer Jack Endino and it sounds absolutely fantastic.

The event was also a benefit to fund the construction of KEXP’s New Home at the Seattle Center, which has its grand opening on Record Store Day as well. Today, KEXP released pro video of the performance.

    I got one today. There were stacks of them at noon today. I'm guessing they'll have plenty online on Monday.

    The special Easy Street version will be never on sale online?

    It'll be on sale online. Not sure when though.
    Easy Street have their RSD stuff up for sale now. They have The Sonics, but not sure it's the Easy Street version. It doesn't say that explicitly.
    The pic is the standard release. So I took it as just that. Not the limited 500. But who am I to know
    I only saw the exclusive version at Easy Street. I didn't see any standard versions. And that price is what the Easy Street exclusive version was going for. The standard was going for just under $20 at the 2 other record stores I visited on Saturday. Someone might want to call to verify, but I'm guessing this is Easy Street's exclusive version online.
    Thanks for the heads up. They responded to my email just now that the one online is the special edition:

    Yes….limit of ONE.

    Does the regular edition come with a download?

    Does the regular edition come with a download?

    Mine didn't, though I got mine signed from Pledgemusic. They sent out a free digital MP3 & Flac download of the album which included 2 bonus tracks not on the vinyl pressing.

    @ The Sonics

    The Sonics regret to inform our fans that The Underground Garage tour is cancelled.
    We very much were looking forward to spending a month on the road with our brothers in Barrence Whitfield & the Savages and the Woogles but unfortunately this will not be able to happen next month .

    We greatly appreciate the continued support and encouragement and will do everything in our power to reschedule performing in your city again soon. Thanks for your understanding and trust that this was due to circumstances beyond our control,

    That sucks...I bought my vinyl from them to support the tour. :disappointed:
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I'm late to the party on this but finally got to opening the LP copy of this I got at RSD in April & see there isn't a download code. Can anyone help with who I'd be best to contact about this to get one? I can send a pic of the album of course to confirm I do actually have it(it's sitting on my lap right now. My husband works at a record store so no illegal downloads anywhere near us).
