Record Store Day

My record RSD has gotten off to a wonderful and early start.  My buddy that owns a store copped the following for me and I went by this eve and picked it up.

 

Blind Melon - S/T 20th anniv.  (currently listening to and I forgot how f'n good this album was)

Dazed And Confused Soundtrack

Porno For Pyros - S/T (the "tie die" vinyl color is siiiiiiick)

Frank Zappa - I'm The Slime b/w Montana 7"

The Doors/X - Soul Kitchen 7"

Misfits/Lemonheads - Skulls 7"

 

Beyond stoked.  This is most of what I wanted.  Just a few more 7" and maybe a 12" or 2 but I'm more or less stoked and could put a fork in it!

I'm heading to AFK here in Virginia Beach. I was bummed to hear that they aren't going to have the Silverstein/ABR split 7" though. If anyone out there spots one in the wild and would be willing to help me out, I'd reward you handsomely. I'm assuming the record is around $8-$10 so I'd be willing to double that to $25 PPD. I really want that record.

Oh and I just got back from there, they were doing a sneak peek event, where all of us passed around all their releases and ogled over them. It was such a tease, but there are a lot of good releases this year. They also screened the "Last Shop Standing" documentary, which was very entertaining.

I'll probably get up around 5:15ish in order to make it to Park Ave CDs by 5:30. There aren't too many things I'm really interested in, but I'll get a good start on some homework while sitting in line and then grab a few records / get the acrylic platter for Pro-ject that I've been wanting for almost a year.

 

Shoot me a PM if you're gonna be in Orlando and get bored standing in line.

Of course it's lavish waste. It's not as if I need people to point that out to me as if it's never occurred to me before, especially in the midst of such troubling news all week.

 

Besides,I thought it was fairly obvious that i was making a joke out of it in the first place. And I never insinuated that RSD was my number one concern during this crisis. I would have been disappointed to miss it but it goes beyond just collecting limited edition pieces of plastic for me. I have a really nice tradition with my wife and my brother-in-law of going every year, waiting in line, digging through the bins and getting brunch after. And if some young dipshit terrorist with a pressure cooker and pipebomb were to wreck that for us, sure it doesn't compare with people's safety or well being but it would still suck. I think it's fair for me to express that without some snide dickhead jumping down my throat while stating the obvious. 

I'm sorry, please don't take me so seriously. I was just being snarky and philosophical. I'm a huge lavish waster when it comes to records.
