Must admit I think RSD is just a bit of a cash grab by record companies and to a certain extent the shops. This was the first one I'd been to and the queuing wasn't too bad (about 90 minutes until I got served) and I only went because I'm a massive fan of Ian Hunter and wanted the RSD special edition of his just out album "Defiance Part 2 - Fiction" because the RSD vinyl version has three tracks not on the CD I'd already bought on 18/4 via Amazon !!. The two LP vinyl RSD version was a whopping £42 which is a ripoff really but hey Ian's one of my all time musical idols and I could afford it. Casbah records in Greenwich were well organised and even had a young lady from the store walking down the queue of people telling folk when an item had been sold out It was an experience but one I probably won't do again unless there is something I really want again !! 😛 John 😎

For Record Store Day today me and my son Joe went to Casbah Records in Greenwich, it was opening at 9am, we got there at 8:50 and there was quite a queue (see pics), got into the shop at about 10:30 and luckily got what I wanted, a copy of Ian Hunter's new album "DEFIANCE PART 2 - FICTION". It was a tad chilly in London this morning and I was glad to get back home !! 🥶😂 Anyone else buy anything for this years RSD ? 😃 John

Utter twaddle 😛 John 😎

Buy a tandem and get a friend/your partner to hold the combo while you steer at the front !! 😂 Seriously a trailer seems the best option John 😎

Very nice, congratulations on the NBD John

That looks amazing, congrats on the NBD John

Looks fantastic, congratulations John

I sent the seller a message in a bottle about the bass !! 😛 John 😎

What a terrific place you have John 😎

If the wife's home: Bass -> Hotone Ampero One Multi-Fx unit -> Headphones 😛 If the wife's out: Bass -> Fender Rumble LT25 Combo John 😎

What a great end to a lovely story, congratulations on the new bass, it looks fantastic John 😎

So sorry for your loss, what a terrible thing to happen to you and your family, life is so unfair at times, my condolences to you all in these sad and difficult times John

Me, the wife and our son Joe went out for lunch in Greenwich, London and it turned into a new bass day sort of !!, it's a short scale and will fit any gig bag 😛 £4 from a stall in Greenwich Market 😆 John 😃
