Sid was a better singer than Johnny Rotten. Just sayin'...

Re: Record Store Day 2019
There’s some stuff that interests me, but realistically I don’t see myself listening to them enough to justify the price, so will probably just stream them. Mainly talking about Across the Stars, Vitamin Quartet doing Nightmare Before Christmas, and the Miles Davis and Bill Evans albums. I’m absolutely getting Phish’s Story of the Ghost repress though, along with GarciaLive1 and the Claypool album.

I'm generally leery of these "live" albums that get released on RSD. They ain't cheap, and I question if they're sourced from decent quality recordings from the soundboard, or if they're basically just bootlegs. Especially for the more obscure stuff or recordings that have been sitting on a shelf for three decades.

Agreed. 
The listing on Discogs for the original 1984 picture disc looks to be the same as the one you posted, I'm assuming the new version should look very similar. Originals are currently selling for $45+ on Discogs, wonder what the new one will go for.
I agree with you on the live RSD releases, a lot seem to be bootleg quality. I have the original "Sid Sings" CD, which contains some of the live material on this new set, and it doesn't sound pretty, not surprisingly, but in this case a lot of that is due to the actual performances as well.
That's not a picture of the Venom picture disc from the actual record I posted; it's one I grabbed from another website. There isn't an image of the disc on the RSD site, but it says it's going to be a reproduction of the 1984 disc.

Meh... only thing I want is the Dio release. Lets just hope it's actually released.
Last RSD "Last in Line Live" was supposed to be released and it wasn't until like a month or so later and then I never found it.

I remember seeing a live Ritchie Valens record in a used store and grabbed it. Only $10. But yeah, if you wanna talk "poorly sourced", this isn't from a soundboard. If there even was a soundboard. It's a reel-to-reel from somewhere in the room. But there's a very small amount of Valens' recordings period, so it's still worth it. On it, he changes the lyrics of "C'mon Let's Go", a habit he had which was depicted in the 1987 La Bamba bio-pic.

I’d like to get Pearl Jam: MTV Unplugged. The last Record Store Day release eventually went up on their website so this one might too.
