Still No Luck Finding Live Albums :(

I've tried Target & K-Mart in Central New Jersey (home).
I've hit FYE, Tower Records & Virgin Megastore in Manhattan (work).
Still no luck.
I was under the impression it would be in stores sometime like Thursday or Friday.
I hope the DVD on the 11th is easier to find!

That's because I think they changed the official release date to tomorrow (11/4). Yes... a few copies of Vegas apparently snuck through last week, but that was an aberration.

Interesting, I hadn't heard that one. I was just going off the 'News' part of this site, and the response posted from Mailboat Records.
Fingers crossed for tomorrow then.

Found both of them in stock at RecordTown (I think that is the name) in the Old Orchard mall in the Chicago area (they had at least 4 copies of each) but a warning-they are asking full price for them!

I found them both at a Cd Warehouse in Dayton, Ohio. They were 14.99 each. I was happy to say the least.

I'm in New Orleans for a couple of days and picked them up at the Margaritaville Store, but neither Tower or Virgin here had them.

Yeah I have checked F.Y.E., Barnes and Noble, Walmart, Circuit City, and Blockbuster here in Myrtle Beach and noone has them!! I am thinking that these probably won't be released to the major stores because it is such a little album.

when you say...."it is such a little album" what do you mean by that? it is 2 cd's and cost $15. are you used to paying more?

I found one Vegas in Wal Mart in the Kalamazoo Mich. area. Wasnt on the 'new releases' rack..the guy says "if its not there, then we dont have it". Well, I went and looked where all of JB's other cd's were, and there it was! JOY!

Oh, and was $14.98.

Don't forget - for this or any other cd, book, etc. - for Jimmy or anyone else:
Please, whenever possible, try to use Amazon and use it through the link on the top of most of the pages of BuffettNews.com.
It's a little bit of support and thanks to PHJim for keeping this website rolling. He pays for this BN site, and we have a lot of fun using it.
P.S. At Amazon the CD's are $13.49 each, and if you are buying more than $25 of stuff (for instance, 2 of the Live CD's), shipping is free.

I just got back from Best Buy, Walmart, and Kmart and nobody got any in. The person at Best Buy looked it up and there is none in Minnesota at all. They were not shipped out again. Something is up and I am not quite sure what it is. Maybe it has something to do with Jimmy Buffett on the CMA's tomorrow?
This sucks!

Okay, this is strange...
I checked Wal-Mart, K-Mart and Best Buy and none had the cd's. However, when I asked the guy at Best Buy, he told me he would check in the back. When he came back, he had the new DVD in his hand. I thought that the DVD's release date was Nov-11 ?????
So I bought the DVD, but still can't find the cd's anywhere...
Oh yeh, this was in the Philly area

For those of you that live near a Borders Books/Music: My wife just called and she was at Borders. She happened to ask if they had JB Live in Las Vegas and the girl replied with "yep, just got a bunch in". Fortunately my wife left with a copy in hand! So, to make a long story longer, try Borders!
