Just posted on TMR:

For Record Store Day 2014 Third Man is primed to celebrate the 11th anniversary of Do Rabbits Wonder? the debut album by Grand Rapids, Michigan art punks Whirlwind Heat. Produced by Jack White, Rabbits is close to our heart as it was the first non-White Stripes release to carry the Third Man logo, long before Nashville storefronts, "vinyl comeback" and all the other trappings currently attached to this fun little label we've grown. To utilize the album's colorful song titles, Third Man is pulling out all the stops and pressing the LP on 12 different colors of vinyl for Record Store Day, with the standard black-vinyl pressing coming later in the year.

So 12 colors of vinyl eh? TMR Completists are going to have fun tracking all those down...heh.

I want them to re-issue the Pink single with Meg on the sleeve. Or have Meg dressed in a bunny suit at TMR that day.

Now that you said that, I can see people showing up and waiting in line the day before in bunny costumes. :lol:

Hmmmmmm... I've not listened to much Whirlwind Heat at this point, but I think I may just have to request RSD off from work for a road-trip anyway. And look into the price of renting a bunny suit.

I think you'll need more coverage in the front for the huge balls easter eggs it requires to wear that. :thumbup:

but that's all? nothing from the White Stripes? I think this will be the first time there will be nothing of the White Stripes or Jack White and The Dead Weather on Record Store Day, but I also like Whirlwind Heat so ....

If this is the only release, then this totally sucks. I do not dig Whirlwind Heat nearly enough to warrant a trip to Nashville. Maybe I dig some of you enough though, :lol: . However, we all know usually TMR announces more as we get closer to RSD, so hopefully that's the case here.

This sounds promising.
I think that it wont be too difficult to acquire 1 of the colored LPs for people who don't live near the RSD release centers.
Plus, I think they ll definitely re-release the 7"s too.
