While im a solid and devoted RSD participant, i still say this vinyl belongs in Target, Walmart, and every other big box store that now sells vinyl. 

Why? Because it was a larger production?  I think if the purpose of RSD is to support local record stores, then why not print enough copies  so they don't sell out in the first 10 minutes? Runs of 1000 where each store gets 1 or 2 copies seems kind of pointless to me if your purpose is to support the local stores;

No because it’s clearly a musical moment that casual rock fans want to own. I was in line with folks who definitely never heard anything past Yield but they knew Unplugged by heart.  I always pictured this being a big major release one day like Nirvana, Clapton, and Bruce did.  

I stand in line every RSD anyway so its no hassle to me.  Im actually happy RSD got such a major release to be an exclusive.  Thats a major get.  

So to you RSD should be about releasing music that only the die-hard/cult fans would even want? I see nothing wrong with releasing something with mass appeal on RSD. Especially since, remember, the point is to support local record stores. How much more support is giving each store 100 copies that will sell instead of just 2 or 3 of some obscure recording that only a few want to begin with?

I dont see a problem either. And like i said, i love how RSD helps my local shop.   Ive been lining up for nine years even when there was nothing i wanted.

Anytime!  

Anyone else still waiting on a shipping confirmation from Easy Street Records? 

Still waiting. Trying to be patient and not give them another email to have to read. I'm sure I'm good and maybe just writing this will magically make some sort of confirmation appear. I only got the initial checkout email.

Just got confirmation from Easy Street. “Order complete, your credit card has been charged.”

Same for me

I still haven't got a e-mail confirmation.

Should i be concerned? 

Did you get the initial "order placed" email with an order number after you placed your order? That's the only thing I've received, other than checking for the charge on my CC, which posted pending this evening.

Yes, i did get the "ordered placed" email with an order number and that's the only thing i've received too. 

Still looking if anyone can help.

I keep checking a few local places and shops online.  If I can find one, I'd be happy to help out a member here, but I'm admittedly not on it as much as demetrios!

What im saying is that this live set is so famous and so clearly wanted that me the fan that loves seeing PJ in the spotlight wants this thing in the billboard top 10 for a week or two.  

Hell, leave the thing on vinyl just for RSD.  Release the CD and digital to stores

Okay I get what you're saying now. I would agree with that. Unplugged deserves more than just a RSD release. I really don't know why they've held on to this for over 25 years, and even then is a limited release.
