Vinyl for sale at shows?
According to this guy's video, the Alpocalypse LP is being sold at the concerts. Has anyone seen them at the merch table at any of the shows they've been to? If so, how much were they, if you remember?

Re: Vinyl for sale at shows?
I've attended three different merch set-ups since Thursday and I've never seen the LP being sold there. I've seen stuff like "When I Grow Up," but that's about it.
He said he bought it "a day before release at one of his shows." Interesting. I mean, the LP released in late July, not at all in the midst of touring. I'd say if he really did buy it at one of the shows, he most likely got it during one of the concerts from mid-July... which might have sold some exclusive stuff at the time.

Definitely were no records at the Toronto shows, I would have gotten one for sure.

Dude's a liar. Not sure if he meant to be, but the record was never sold at the shows. It was released on July 26, with the last show before that being in Toronto on July 16. The record wasn't sold at any of the TV taping tour shows. Kinda interested to hear about the different set-ups of merch from this tour.

No vinyl at the merch table that I saw. I did see the book and a few people buying it which was nice. It's cheaper there than the printed price on the book, too I think.
Is my dude a dweeb?

Yeah, he doesn't have to pay the money to the store. I had a problem with an author in my store telling the people her book was $5 cheaper than it was because that's what she sells her copies for. Cut out the middle man and sell it cheaper. Personally I'd sell for the same price to maximize profits
