    I guess I will just say, something prevented them from releasing the full show the first time around.  Perhaps they don't like how the rest of the show sounds.  Perhaps there are tape problems.   

    Easy for us to get spoiled when a band releases like 500+ live albums.  

    It is a glorious time to live in when incomplete live shows reissued on vinyl are a tragedy.

    So you guys complain for days that this wasnt on the initial list....when it shows up on the list you complain even more??  :lol:
    If you stop "loling" for a while and instead try to understand your fellow fans:


    No need my man.  If it was the full show we’d have four pages complaining that 9,000 are getting pressed and not 2,000.  LOL

    And that is wasn't made available to club members first.

    And what does it matter if some hoped for more, some are happy with anything and some couldn't care less either way. It's their opinion on the subject. Imagine if those who expected more started berating those that said, "Yes, awesome!" Different strokes, for different folks and so on and so on....
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Yep, and prepare for about 100 "ISO Easy Street RSD vinyl" threads on 4/13.

    Im just hearing in a record store in The Netherlands that the record is a US thing only. It does not come to Europe, true?

    This is a TON, shouldn't have any problem. These will be sitting on shelves.

    I don't know about sitting on shelves, but no reason to rush to ebay for this for certain. People will be able to get this at retail price for a few days after RSD. I'm sure secondary market prices won't be astronomical either. maybe $35-$40 ceiling on discogs for a few weeks after.

    Also, I remember the SOLAT/Breath single was RSD first too, but then it was never repressed. I wonder if PJ says that so they can sell a few on the 10c store.

    Of course I would’ve loved the full show. Still, I am excited to spin this on vinyl!

    6000 for USA. 3000 international. And this is a RSD first which means they will make more copies, a 2nd run. A bigger run and maybe a different variant color.

    Why not a 10c variant release in the shop? Wouldn't that make sense? Reward the 10c for a change.

    Then it'd be Pearl Jam Store Day instead of Record Store Day.  ;)

    at first i was really fucking stoked for this like most people thinking it would be the full show, but now knowing that it's the same as the ep that i already have on cd it's just a huge letdown, and it just pisses me off even more that they can whip this up in less than two months apparently and yet they can't find the time to press 2 holiday singles, unbelievable...
    Perfectly said.

    I'm one of the "complainers" but also said I'd buy it. I don't see any contradiction. I'm complaining about the lazy effort by the band, but am happy to have a new record to put on the shelf.

    What's gonna happen is the 10club store will be selling both regular & variant Live @ Easy Street Records vinyl copies starting @ 12am EST (guessing) but the variant copies will be shipped out randomly. :|
