veggiecorecords Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 This is the best part of the article for those who don't wanna read the whole thing: "Interest in the left-for-dead format has been helped along by global Record Store Day celebrations and a dedicated, collection-obsessed fan base. Independent music shops particularity love this trend, as 67 percent of these vinyl purchases came through these stores, according to the study." hmmmm, who could that be? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It's not a phenomenon, it's just becoming a trend. Albeit production slowed in the 80's, records never stopped being pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjb2k1 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 i read this headline yesterday: Enjoy the Ride Records Releases Two New Vinyl and even that bothers me. they released records pressed on vinyl. not a sheet of material. bleh tittus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you want to punch people for using descriptive English, but you can't even bother to use an apostrophe when typing the contraction for "it is"?

hankmurphy Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 You're the one that wants to physically hurt others for using a language that changes and evolves over time. I just figured a hard-ass linguistic warrior such as yourself would be less hypocritical about grammar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
