So RSD just launched an online marketplace for participating stores to unload RSD stock: https://rsdmrkt.com/

How utterly necessary.

Thanks for trying to get me to spend more money!

...and I'm spent. (I'm also apparently on every record label ever's mailing list.)

This company has been activating loss-leading sales for the past 2.5 years. I truly don't know how they're in the game since everyone within the online record community knows to never pay full price for any of their LPs. I got a year membership + bonus records for $99... 

 

The weird thing is, I reached out to them a few years ago about writing some of their zines, and they were super gung ho until I asked how much they pay — then the email chain went suddenly silent...

$40 for $100 worth of records is a stupid-good deal. Bandbox always seems like it's on the verge of going out of business. Maybe they have venture capital money?

Well, we just had our baby over the weekend, so my show-going is likely done for the year. But this is who I've seen since my last check-in back in June:

• Bryan Adams/Joan Jett
• Weezer/Modest Mouse/Momma
• LCD Soundsystem/Idles
• NOFX/Descendents/Suicide Machines/Bouncing Souls (Punk In Drublic Fest)
• Julia Jacklin/Black Belt Eagle Scout
• Braid/Signals Midwest
• American Football
• Max Stern
• Ben Nichols/Tim Barry
• Fake Names
• The Gaslight Anthem
• Head Automatica
• Ratboys
• Chris Farren
• Rozwell Kid/This Moment In Black History + a bunch more bands (WCSB Halloween Ball)
• Into It. Over It.
• Lucero

Best sets out of that batch were Weezer, Braid, Max Stern and Descendents, but honestly, none of the shows were bad (with the exception of Gaslight, there was just a realllllly weird vibe during their set both onstage and in the crowd).
