    I am going to try and hit the music stores this weekend as well. My local Half Price Books has a vinyl night every Friday, where all vinyl is 20% off. I like to stop in there at least one Friday a month. Their selection seems to be limited at times, however.

Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same.

    I want the Grateful Dead, the Jimi Hendrix, and the Jimi Page+Black Crowes.
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Paul, I have a committment on Saturday but will likely send a surrogate with full proxie power. I'm curious about the Garbage single for one, Velvet Underground for another, have to look into the Hendrix wasn't aware of that. Strictly Discs is my choice also.

    I'm also considering Jake Bugg Live, Johnny Winter Live Bootleg Series Special Edition, Gregory Issacs, Roots Radic, and even the Wayne Kramer which is jazz so I'm not sure about that but he is one heck of a guitarist. I see the Hendrix is the Monterrey festival which I actually had on 8-track at one time a thousand lifetimes ago, that is a real good concert from him, have to check if I have that or most of it on vinyl already. I may be thinking of the Otis Redding/Hendrix live album which I think was also Monterrey IRRC but not sure if it was highlights or the whole set.

    I'll be hitting up Papa Jazz in Columbia, SC shooting to the Ray Parker Jr Ghostbuster RSD issue. If I don't get it there I may head up to Charlotte, NC and hit up Lunchbox Records.

    It'll be interesting. Not sure how early I want to get there or how big the line will be.

    Last year I got most of what I wanted online for face value after the fact. Except DMB which of course was 3 times the price.

    This year the DMB is doubled in size for the release so it'll be easier to get. So essentially, I could probably get everything I want online after the fact, but want to do the whole "experience" thing this year.

    I think if I go in without any crazy expectations, I'll have a good time.

    Over lunch hour I went down to a local record store in the town I work in and asked if they were going to be participating in the RSD. He said no, that even if he did they wouldn't send him much if anything because they do that according to size and he was too small. Ssssssss.

    I'm looking over the list again and that Allman Bros album is very intriguing. Also the Civil Wars...

    Sometimes it seems like a better option to just buy off $bay to not put up with it.

    Probably Parma hts. Kinda figuring the crowd from mme will flow to the Lakewood store
