Just returned home with the 1 of 50 (South Carolina) of the Autographed LP from the Jim James Scavenger Hunt!!! I am beyond high on life right now!!! I found it in the "Used Jewish LP" section.  :smiley:

Well done, Palms.  Nice to know at least 2 of these are forum peeps.  None in NH, but 2 in Idaho?  Not sure which state has fewer people... or more Jim fans.   :drum:
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

I found mine hidden behind an AC/DC picture.

Was that supposed to be the answer to the "Behind the Times" clue? Cuz that doesn't make any sense.

"Behind the Times" is the clue for the store by me, I went today and searched for an hour and got nada.  Any help on this clue??  The guy at the store said other people had already been in looking around for it for hours an also couldn't find it.

Palms, Angelo and Soulboots, what were your guys clues?

This is awesome! I didn't realize a scavenger hunt was going on until about mid-afternoon. I called a few stores but they were all found by then.

Can someone tell us about the record? I heard rumors there is also black and blue versions of the standard vinyl - wonder which it is, or is it both?

I hate to do this but I have to (I collect every single MMJ related) - if anyone wants to make a trade for their testing pressing, or is in need of cash, I'd love to get this :)

I haven't opened mine up yet. Normally I open all my vinyl and play it, but I'm a little hesitant on this one

Here was my clue. I was at work when I saw it online so I decided to take a chance and drive over and sure enough it was where I thought it was.

Do you love My Morning Jacket? We have an autographed copy of the new Jim James solo LP, Regions of Light Sound of God (out TODAY on CD and LP), to give away for FREE. What's the catch? You have to find it. We have hidden it somewhere in Landlocked. If you are smart enough to figure out our clue, it is yours - for free! Let the hunting begin: This louisville born singer, song collector, and instrument builder served in the military, performed at the White House, has been quoted by Bob Dylan in song, and has his own center named after him at a major university. If you can find this album, you will find the treasure you seek!

I'm going to call my local shop after work to see if anyone has found it. Hopefully not but I won't be too bummed if someone does. Definitely a cool thing they've done.

My clue was pretty stupid to be honest. It wasn't music related. Something about "look towards the region of lights". The way my store did it was they had a whole sheet of clues that someone wrote and then the clerk gave each person a different clue. My fiancee came so we go 2 clues  :grin:

I'm going to call my "local" record store (in OKC) here in a little bit to see if they participated, but I'm pretty sure they won't know what I'm talking about, and they'd be too cool to do it if they did.

I was the one there for hours! Dylyn also popped in for a bit! I may head back later!

It is NOT behind their framed article from the New York Times, or their selection of Bob Marley clocks...  :grin:
I NEEDED IT MOST WHENEVER tbh

Thanks, man! Of course my shop is not on the list, so you saved me the awkward phone call.  :beer:

Didn't even know about the clues!...I just started searching as soon as I crossed the doors.

So which store was it in in SC?  Where did you find clues?

I don't know if I can wait much longer. 3 hours until I can leave work.

Murph got the one in LI, I believe!  :thumbsup: Congrats!

Damn. I was literally two hours away from going to that store. I knew I Should have gone on a lunch break a little while ago.  So jealous  :cry:
