Only missed one: Green Day Woodstock '94. Which is wierd because I'm reading so many posts about how most people had no problem getting a copy. My local store did pretty amazing. They kept bringing out records by the stackload. I showed up around 10 to 8, they posted opening at 8:30 but open earlier. Took about an hour to work way my through. Good times.
Hopefully I can find the Green Day one online as it seems to have plenty of copies around.

the record store I was at only let 4 people at a time near the RSD releases... it was such a shit show. People literally taking 30minutes to look thru 4 crates of vinyl, studying every lil thing....it’s unreal how dumb people have become, microcosm of the stubidity out there. It took me 2-3 minutes when it was my turn.... I’m glad the guy in front of me opened his mouth, he got a round of applause. The store had a few employees who should have moved it along.
How do these people function in society, do they have real jobs? Surprised they can match socks in the morning
If anyone can grab me a PJ at Easy Street, is appreciate it!
Are you in Houston? Did you shop anywhere? I went to Sig’s & they said that 2 of their UPS boxes didn’t come in. And of course PJ is in one of those. He took my name & # and told me he would hold it & call if/when they come in. I’m bummed, but it’s not their fault & I really appreciate them holding it if those boxes make it to them.
Houston is my hometown; currently we live in KCMO.
I'm not sure. It's not the first time my local store (Ditch Records) has scored something that I thought was for the US only (but there are many times they don't). They seem to be pretty good at ordering. We have another cd/record store a few blocks away and I have no idea what they order. It's random, usually nothing popular, all euro pressings and they show up weeks after RSD... lol. I know nothing of distribution, so I have no idea what sources these different places use.
I got almost everything I was after: PJ, Doors, L7, Bob Dylan, Frank Black, Robert Plant & Twin Peaks. Just missed out on getting Green River and the Crow soundtrack.
After promising myself to take it easy I ended up buying 7 RSD releases: Pearl Jam, Broken Social Scene, Peter Gabriel, James Brown, The Oh Sees, Duran Duran. U2. Had Green River in my hand but knew I wouldn't listen to it much so put it back and bought Angelique Kidjo album Remain In the Light (all Talking Heads covers ...incredible!!!).
Oh, and my store was giving out free copies of a new Stones record called Early Tracks. A nice bonus.

Struck out on my Robert Kraft---I mean, "Bingo, Hand Job" Really am pining for it right now....how can you pine for something you never had...hell I was third in line and don't know that I saw it.
On the positive side, a guy at the record swap outside had the Vault version of "The Dead Weather--Dodge and Burn", which I couldn't pass up.
Good haul! Grabbed Pearl Jam, Green River and Night Beats, which were the last copies at my favorite shop, and picked up Johnny Thunders. Then, went to another local shop and found Bingo Hand Job. Missed out on Seven Mary Three and the Crow soundtrack (college faves). Will have to get online tomorrow morning...
Looks like alot of people picked up The Crow, that's cool. I got Twin Peaks, The Crow, Def Leppard the best of (part two), Moonspell (Lusitanium Metal), Greta van Fleet and Louis Armstrong - Disney Songs. Only regret is that I didn't pick up Mastodon, Stairway to Nick John. I even had it in my hand ... Oh well. Oh and NO PJ at my dealer, or anyone near me.
I just typed in “RSD 2019” on ebay. Almost 6000 results. The support of the local record store and flipping is alive and well!
The records were purchased at a record store, correct? If people don't buy them eBay, the flippers fail. Don't hate on the flippers, the people buying from them aren't helping either.

Went to a a total of four stores in St. Paul, MN this morning. Only one had the PJ and they had 4 copies. I grabbed one, not sure why. Must of been instinct or something.

Super disappointed not to find The Crow or I Am Sam soundtracks or the Greta Van Fleet record, but extremely fortunate that my guy at Cherry Records up here in Auburn set this aside for me out of the three he got!
