Additional Record Store Day Details

We are chompin' at the bit for April 19th - Record Store Day - and, since we only told you some of our plans last week, we figured another update was in order!

Beyond tracking the progress of Jack White's World's Fastest Record (read more about that here) and getting your hands on a randomly colored reissue Whirlwind Heat's Do Rabbits Wonder?, we will have some great new merch available for sale: Fantastic new, made-in-Nashville record crates for carrying your bounty home, a new 45 box, World's Fastest Record buttons, new Jack White T-shirt and poster, Whirlwind Heat T-shirt and poster, and new sweets from Bang Candy Company. We also have a fantastic new pop-up postcard for sale…

For those of you without Ultra Tickets, fear not, there will be plenty for your ears and eyes and mouths to feast upon! The back patio will be open from 7am to 5pm, and local young punks Jawws and Waxed will perform live from the Rolling Record Store starting at noon. We will have coffee, mimosas, bloody mary's and bagels in the morning to ease you into the day, as well as complementary slices of Two Boots' new creation, Third Man Pizza (!!!), and our favorite beer from Yazoo Brewery in the afternoon.

That's not all... hot dogs and hamburgers will be available from the Third Man grill pit, Las Paletas will be there to cool you down with their Mexican popsicles, and Bang Candy will roll up with their Coco Van to serve you up all the marshmallows you can eat! Fluffy bunny, anyone? It's Easter, after all...

Of course, we can't tell you everything about the day's plans (surely you know us well enough by now...), but hopefully we have made the point loud and clear that Record Store Day 2014 is a PARTY, and you're invited.

Here's a little schedule cheat sheet to help you plan your day:

7am – breakfast on patio

10am - (Jack White records fastest studio-to-store single followed by a possible short set in the Blue Room - ULTRA TICKET HOLDERS ONLY)

Store and Rolling Record Store open and begin selling Whirlwind Heat reissue, new merchandise

12pm - Waxed followed by Jawws from the Rolling Record Store

Pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, libations!

2pm - (Whirlwind Heat performs in the Blue Room - ULTRA TICKET HOLDERS ONLY)

TBD (early afternoon) Hot off the presses, the World's Fastest Record is delivered from URP and will be sold from a separate line in front of the yellow garage door.

6pm - Close

Please note that parking will be somewhat limited this year. Please do not park at the Mission. Find street parking and carpool if possible. We will provide you with more details about additional parking options in the coming days, so stay tuned for more information.

Crowdsurge messed me over, leaving me stuck with one general admission ticket to the Jack White AE show in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on July 27. I would like to sell it to a Vault member at face value to be fair to my fellow TMR vault members. If you’re interested, please let me know!

Any more info about parking yet…?

Sending love and support to Jack on RSD! Unfortunately I will not be there, but friends of mine will be, so They will be kind enough to bring me something back. Everyone attending, enjoy!! Sending love from Brooklyn NY!
I’ll be broken hearted in Brooklyn, but will support RSD here in the city.

Question for those of you that have been to Third Man for a record store day. How does the store or RRS announce specials or surprises throughout the day? Do they tweet or is just being in the right place at the right time?

Hoping those with Ultra Tickets get a chance to snag those Jack and Whirlwind Heat posters. Would hate to miss them :(

Can’t wait to blow my entire paycheck in one day!

Lindsey Williams

SO EXCITED!!! This is amazing.

OK, yes, AWESOME. And, OK, yes, we LIKE YOUR surprises… but how about prices on the stuff you have told us about? We’ll all give you the last dime in our pocket, I can tell by the prices some people have been willing to pay for the 10 am show, so its in TMRs best interest to let us know how many dimes (Uh, how much money…) we should put in our pockets!

“Possible” now? haha sigh Oh, Third Man.

“Jack White records fastest studio-to-store single followed by a possible short set in the Blue Room”— C’mon, Jack, could we please change that from “possible” to “probable”? Pretty please with lots of sugar on top for that sweet tooth of yours? Or could we pretend that “possible” was just a typo? Or was it an Apple auto-correct error? It is supposed to be “probable”, right? Isn’t it?
