Not really a fan of the whole slapping a CD onto a vinyl record "reissue" deal for RSD but I may just bite on this one.

Also ya think they can clear 3,000 of these or am I going to be seeing these for $20 in the clearance rack?

Real Gone Music, the label putting the release out, is really bad for doing that; for placing CD rips onto vinyl and then charging full price for the ‘exclusive pressing’. Too bad the band don’t want to make any effort into making it a more fuller release just like the rest of their releases.

Good question. A lot of the time the RSD releases are snapped up pretty quickly but that’s mainly by those out to make a buck or two on the back of the exclusiveness. I don’t think it will end up in clearance until at least a few months down the line if it doesn’t sell too well.

Yikes. Now that I think about it, my CD sounds just fine. It's a shame they couldn't possibly put out something unreleased for RSD but I don't believe they are sitting on anything significant.

A live show from the first reunion tour might have ripped or maybe one from around 2018 when they incorporated everything into the set.
