So with that said, let's look at the items that did *not* make the Record Store Day "official" list. Remember, to be considered an official RSD release, you basically have to have the sticker/logo on the item and it has to meet their approval. Know that there are some *great* items coming out on Record Store Day, that your store may get (if you want it, be sure and ask if they ordered it!) that still should be recognized. If you know of an item that I missed, please LET ME KNOW by leaving a comment and I'll be sure and get it added!!
