BeBop Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 http://www.recordstoreday.com/Home Not sure what it all means. But I was at Boo Boo a couple of years ago for Record Store Day, and they had some deals. Celebrate. Quote

BeBop Posted April 19, 2008 Author Report Posted April 19, 2008 Just thought I'd boost this back into public view. Seems like every record store 'round here was celebrating, mainly in the form of dicsounts and live music. Quote

rostasi Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 I love the Shelby Lynne quote! "You can't roll a joint on an iPod - buy vinyl!" That's why I think it should be tomorrow on 420. Quote
GregK Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 No discounts here. I even asked one of the local guys about it and he only talked about in-store performances and how he didnt have the room for any Quote
Dan Gould Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 I thought the site was very poorly designed for having participating stores listed alphabetically instead of by state, but eventually I did find two stores in south Florida I've never heard of before that might be worth checking out, plus one that is near my parent's house that I may try to visit the next time I go to CT. Unfortunately, no time today to see what might be going on at the one store down here that is worth a damn and is listed as a participant, the former CD Collector, now Radioactive Records, in Fort Lauderdale.

Absolutely agree on the site design. How about a search feature, guys? I was pretty disappointed with the jazz selection on my last visit to Radioactive. Really made me miss All Books. Quote

Have you been since they added the back room for vinyl? They definitely have a lot more jazz out there now, for better or worse I'm just not looking for any right now and am more likely to look in the tiny blues section when I do make it down there. Quote
RDK Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 Rockaway had a nice sale today. Picked up a small handful of CDs, a couple of HD-DVDs, and Dylan's "Modern Times" on vinyl. With any vinyl purchase they were giving away a "Record Store Day" promo LP and a free single. Good turnout too! Quote
BFrank Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 Went to my local Streetlight. Everything was 20% off. It was crowded, too - which was nice to see. Picked up a Buddy Guy CD. Quote
