That was always my understanding, too. I've never heard of anyone NOT getting the "bonus" LP... the limit is, as you suggest, tied to demand... though, strangely enough, they must have OVER-pressed the live Pavement LP since it's part of Record Store day... weird.

Well, I simplified things a bit - I assume they press a somewhat larger run since LPs get damaged/lost/stolen during transport or in the mail.

For anyone in Edinburgh I popped into Avalanche today and they confirmed they are doing this. They are expecting to be in contact with Matador on Tuesday (14th) to finalise and will start taking pre-orders at the end of next week.

Pre-ordered mine today at RPM in Newcastle - apparently they got the vouchers for it in this morning. It was a frankly-ridiculous £28 for the vinyl pressing (£21 for the CD).

Actually, the RSD Pavement album is a second live LP recorded during the Brighten The Corners days. Not previously released. Similar cover design to the BEGN live LP.

will who gets the bonus LPs be determined by who signed up first? I hope not because I haven't signed up yet. I plan on doing it online on April 28th.

Also, is everyone planning on listening to the stream? I think I might give it one listen through, but I'd rather have the actual record in my hand the first listen. begin intense dilemma.

The bonus LPs are first-come first-serve, however we expect there to be plenty left when online ordering goes live on April 28.

Anyone who preorders after the vinyl runs out will not be charged the full price - you will get an opportunity to get just the record plus extras, stream and poster (as long as *those* last) at the regular price, or cancel your order.

Do you know how much they're charging for it in Avalanche? I'm not sure whether to buy from there, or online.

I just got my code emailed to me 30 mins ago, have registered and logged in. The only mp3 download available so far is The Eternal Montage

Where can i BNGE for the UK?

i got the store finder but it's confusing as to what i do. contact the store?

You go to the store itself, slam your money down and they give you a coupon with a code on it to download the stuff.

so I got the code via email today. it seem like we're on! so we should be able to dl./listen to new stuff on 28th.?

I'm going to order online from a uk store (I'm thinking of rough trade), should I face any problems? I'm just trying to avoid the import duties from the us.

May I recommend that you try Norman Records, simply because my experience is that they are very nice people.

I'm dealing with Rhytm Online (Cambridge). they are very nice as well.

Agreed! I like Norman Records.

The first cds i ever bought on the internet came from Norman Records (first two Blonde Redhead lps) - I ordered them at 3pm and they came early next morning with free chewy sweet!. They emailed me the code yesterday for The Eternal stream.

im too lazy to read the other replies and find out whats going on. i don't want to put an order in a record store, i want to pre-order with matador records themselves. but i can't do that until april 28th right?

I preordered it a record store and got a sheet with a code on it, do I have to wait til the 28th to use it or is that just when matador gives it out on the website?
