Wait, I can't get it in Best Buy? Fuck it then. Fuck it all. I'm moving to Belgium to start a waffle farm.

Glice 03.23.2009 04:18 PM

I have a high percentage of vinyl-hoarding mates. I can't think of a single one who likes 7"s. I've got a load of them, but I'll be buggered if I know the last time I listened to one.

Toilet & Bowels 03.23.2009 06:37 PM

7" is my favourite format

Rob Instigator 03.23.2009 07:20 PM

I have 1200+ 7" singles and listen to at least a few of them at least 3 times a week.

joe11121 03.23.2009 07:25 PM

I've never even heard of this day! It sounds cool. I think I might head out and buy something, maybe...

noisereductions 03.23.2009 07:32 PM

I like my albums on CD and my singles on 7" vinyl.

terminal pharmacy 03.23.2009 07:59 PM

wow what a waste of time this sounds to be, i shop at my favourite independent at least twice a week, I'm already supporting them. Preaching to the converted nver really works. Maybe I'll tell them not to give me discount...

Rob Instigator 03.24.2009 08:28 AM

it sure sounds petty to have music fans bitch and moan about an attempt to create a national buizz about independent record stores. fucking crybabies.

no one is forcing you to participate. If it gets more people aware that indie record stores exist near them then I am all for it. I have been saving my money and me and three friends are gonna hit 4 different record stores in Houston area that saturday, and the browsing will be intense.

Toilet & Bowels 03.24.2009 08:45 AM

i haven't bought any records this year, because i'm poor, but i think i might have to hit up some shops & do some intense browsing myself on saturday.

tesla69 03.24.2009 08:58 AM

I bought the West Coast Punk Rock Orchestra 7" (w/Nels Cline and Mike Watt) for $1 at Academy Saturday. I have 3 boxes of singles. I've recently purchased singles by D. Charles Speer, GHQ, Killing Joke (80's) and Nonhorse (Lucas Crane of vanishing voice). Singles rule. They have at least 50 year track record. have fun downloading your vapormusic from Apple.

Rob Instigator 03.24.2009 09:17 AM

I got a 3 song live Mudhoney single from their European tour with sonic youth in like 89 or something, sounds fucking amazing.

atsonicpark 03.24.2009 09:33 AM

free comic book day is better.

Rob Instigator 03.24.2009 09:37 AM

fucking cool picture disc Bytor

does it have Manson songs on it? I have a cassette of his. horrible shit.

atsonicpark 03.24.2009 09:55 AM

charles manson's music is awesome.

Toilet & Bowels 03.24.2009 10:12 AM

yeah, i heard some of his first album and it was excellent

Rob Instigator 03.24.2009 12:06 PM

I hear ya man.

It does seem to be cashing in on the current vinyl "fad" if it can be called that.

I just can;t stand seeing people "DJ" with an Ipod or with a couple of CD players.
hahah!

I did not know tehre were so many 7" for sale for this. i thought it was just matador with a few select releases.

you work in a record store or something? Is that how it is being forced down your throat?

As for the vinyl "fad", I never got rid of my turntable or records, it never ever crossed my mind. I have tons of Cds as well, and cassette and DAT. I don't think this is a 'fad' - people who love music love listening to vinyl. and there are scientific reasons for this.
