Hi Duncan.
I am in Southern cal and i did not find that Best Buy has marketed you well. It was not even out with their new releases and it was in their flyer........they only had three copies too which is unacceptable.
Also Target only had like 2 copies as well.
We can't wait to see you soon!!
The new record is amazing. Like we expected anything else from such a talented songwriter

Cheers and Love.

Even in Way-out-here-nowhere-South-Dakota, yes, I am happy to report that I was able to find Daylight. The Best Buy ad was great to see, but, of course, no Best Buy here for miles. I found Daylight at the one & only local record store (hallelujah) in my small hometown on the very day it came out. Yea! Support your local record stores!
Much love & Thanks for the music!

There are a couple Barnes and Noble Stores out in Minnesota that don't have Daylight. They have been reported.

Thanks Tina and everybody else who has sent info.

Please remember that while it's totally fine to post your experience finding the album here, it is important to also email the information. That way Duncan's management can work on making sure those stores get copies to sell.

Instructions are in the announcement, at the top of each forum.

Thanks a lot!

Best Buy in South Jersey, Moorestown to be exact opened with 15 being put out. We bought & took 2 of them up to NYC, then found them on sale at J & R Music for the same price!!!!!

As for my copy now? It stays at home only.

Yesterday, I went to the Providence Place Mall here, in Rhode Island. First stop was Newbury Comics which had Daylight featured on the wall of their new releases. There were about 5 copies left.

Then I went to Borders and it was in the new release section as well. Maybe 10 copies there. Hopefully it will be put in their listening station.

It looked like Daylight was selling well. Congrats!

This is probably not new to you, but no Daylight here in Brazil The only album that I actually found here was Humming.

I got my copy from Amazon.com.
I pre-ordered it and it was delivered right to my greedy little hands on the day it came out. You gotta love technology!

Hey Duncan ^_^ ::waves::

I found mine at Walmart the first day it came out. I asked a guy at the front desk if they had it and he asked "who?" Oh well. I looked through the CDs myself and dug it out ;D

Much love

I am proud to say that my work place (tower records) has been doing a good job of promoting Duncan's new album. I think this may partially due to me playing the promo in the store every chance I get. People are always asking me about him.

Here in the Philippines, I've searched in major record stores in almost the whole metro but I wasn't able to get one.

I asked customer reps on any release date info and only one had the slightest idea what I was talking about.

He said that the local ditributor of Atlantic that only priority artists are given the same local release date simultaneously with the US release date.

Clearly, Mr. Sheik isn't on the priority list. When I asked about those not prioritized, he said that release date ranges from two weeks to a month.

It has been three weeks since the US release date. But I've organized a bunch of friends to keep on inquiring about Daylight. I just hope that the local distributor and record stores get the message.

I work for Best Buy...we have over 500 stores in the US and Canada...each one had the daylight CD. When it first came out it was under $10!

Well, I finally ended up buying it online at Amazon. Admittedly, I didn't really check too many record stores in town (San Antonio, Texas) but the two I did check didn't have it yet.


Daylight is just what I needed to hear. The entire CD is fantastic. My only complaint: I wish Track 8 (For You) were longer. I didn't want it to end.

When I first popped the CD in and Genius started playing I knew I was going to love this CD. Great job. I wish you much success with it. - Laura Marie

P.S.
I must say, I really loved Phantom Moon. Your interpretations of the words made so much sense to me (except in one case but I won't go into that since it's just my opinion) My producer likes to kid me about "a clanging toy..." because, for some odd reason, that line gives me chills when I hear you sing it. It's something about the emotion that you put behind it.

Hey Duncan!
Just saw you at Grey Whale in SLC, Utah. You were amazing... (as if anything less would be expected...) Anyway, just wanted to let you know I did have a bit of a struggle finding a copy of Daylight here in Orem. But, after many hours of searching, I found a lonely little copy in Kmart. I went on the day it was released, and a few of the stores said they didn't think they'd gotten their shipments yet.. I didn't go back to check if they had any, but I will now! Muwahaha.

Take care... Hope you're not too tired!
Linds

((Just had to add that I e-mailed the names and addresses of the delinquent stores!.. ))

D,

Well I've been having the pleasure of hearing your new album at the store where I work. It has been in heavy rotation for about two weeks now and even though home office has told us to remove it because of the f*uck word, we are still playing it!!

Daylight is BRILLIANT!!! I love it. Like the duncan addict that I am, on August 27th i went to some stores in my area. One didn't have it, another had already sold out... i had to wait a whole week! Now, i have 2 copies, a backup for when i wear out the first. Duncan, thank you for coming to SLC on the promo tour. i am disappointed to see you are not coming back with Ben Folds... but i will be home in oregon for your concert in portland!!! see you there.
ps- do you think you'll be able to go to Vegas this time??

Hello!

I bought the debut album and "phantom moon" some time ago. Since watching the video to "On A High" on yahoo I am trying to find "Daylight" in Germany - didn't found it even amazon.de doesn't offer it. My question: was the album released here in Germany? Seems as it was not :-((

Best wishes,
Christian

well, i hope something happens (i neeeeeeed to buy the cd!!!)

ALL WE NEED IS LOVE!
