Wow, weird to be talking about Kim.
Still great release. It's not streaming or on cd if you ask me.
No brainer.
Need this! (would prefer cd but I will take vinyl)

| The info is all wrong, this 2LP set is made up from live recordings of the Bossanova/Trompe European tour last year with Emma. I'm so glad we're getting it, the shows were amazing (saw 2 nights in Manchester and 1 night in London). The sound quality on the Come On Pilgrim It's Surfer Rosa Live In London 2LP set is incredible, it's my favorite live recording of almost any band. If this set has that same level of quality, count me super excited. |

| Ha that's a shocker press release. Obviously no Kim, but even the year is wrong, it was 2024 no? (I hope I'm not losing my mind...) |

Great! And I totally forgot about Winterlong. So a lot of B-sides are also covered.
Theme from Narc or Evil Hearted You would be nice in the future!

I'm not so much familiar with the record store day - can anybody tell me, if the LP is available for ordering? I'm confused between "sold out" info and "not available yet" info...

normally, record store day exclusive releases are first available in the physical record shop, on record store day.
pre-orders are not allowed. so it'd be strange to find an online pre-order for these releases.
after record store day, though, everything goes. some shops put their leftovers online. which is interesting for people who can't make it to a record shop, but want to try and get one of these releases.
some shops add all the releases to their webshop in advance, but aren't allowed to start selling them yet. depending on the system they use, this can sometimes look like the item has already sold out.
if all goes well, the item will become available that evening, the next day, or not much after, depending on when they can add the stock to their webshop.
note that there is absolutely no guarantee that a certain item will become available online after record store day. it is possible they will have sold on the day and that there is no stock left.
on top of that, record store day is typically a massive shit show, with record shops not receiving most of the releases on time to sell them on record store day.
on multiple occasions i've visited record shops on the day, to see that nothing i wanted had even arrived. they then told me to try again in a couple of days. couple of days later: nothing. couple of weeks later: nothing. couple of months later: i find the release at discounted price at the same record shop. so they arrived eventually... by then i had already bought the damn thing online.
i'm not even going to try anymore to buy RSD releases in the shop on the day. always the same. i've had enough of this.
good news with the pixies is that none of their limited releases seem to sell out. or if they ever do, it takes months.
so everyone interested should be able to find a copy online without having to pay massive scalper markups.
or if you wait a bit longer, you might even find a bargain.

i might be completely wrong about this not selling out fast. but it is the strategy i'll be following: just try and find a copy online after RSD.
i've been stressing too much over previous pixies RSD releases, only to see them still for sale months later, each time.
same with that "come one pilgrim it's surfer rosa live in london" limited release on their website.
that was limited to 1,000 LPs and 1,000 CDs, and that took ages to sell out.
in fact, the CD still hasn't sold out: https://pixiesmerch.com/collections/music/products/come-on-pilgrim-its-surfer-rosa-live-in-london-cd lol
