From Record Store Day:

> ***We’re very excited to get some great titles out to stores and into your collections! Be sure to check with your local stores to see how they’re handling lines, crowds and shopping– it very well may not be business as usual.***  
>  
> ***Stores have been working hard to figure out the best way to handle things. Every store has a different situation– space, staff, local mandates, fires, hurricanes, 2020 in general. So be patient, follow the rules they’ve set out and be nice– to them and each other.***
