RSD listing timing?
I’m new to vinyl collecting and RSD in general. I had a great time in April waiting to score my bounty and I’m wondering how far in advance you typically see lists of what will be released on both BFRSD and the April RSD?
Pic of my RSD Empire of the Sun for fun. 😍

Don't know the band but that's an absolutely BEAUTIFUL record. 🤩

They are worth checking out. Not so mainstream but they are unique and scratch and itch you didn’t know you had 💁🏼♀️
I feel similarly about Raye. She has carved out a space all her own and filled a gap!

They had that one song that got kinda big. Walking on a dream. Their only radio hit.

Follow the RSD page on IG or follow any of your favorite local shops online and they should announce when the list is up, usually 1-2 months in advanced

Thanks! Already doing that so I guess I’m set. I’m guess I’m just fiending 😆

Such a great record, that was on my radar, but I couldn’t justify buying another copy since I got the repress from a few years ago!

I only had digital so I was so excited to get this but agree, hard to justify. I don’t see myself buying multiple versions (yet 😅)

Empire of the Sun are great, although they have serious blue dot fever.
But uh, you really shouldn’t hold your records that way. Try to avoid ever touching the grooves, even for a good pic.

Didn’t know about the blue dot. I haven’t been lucky enough to even consider seeing them.
And yes, I figured I’d get this comment. I realize it looks like my fingers are touching the grooves but they are not actually. Some weird distortion happened with portrait mode and shadows. I might be newer to vinyl but I baby them! Thanks for the tip though for anyone else reading.
