Ya know, I don't always realize how much vinyl I buy. I am constantly at the thrift stores (my job requires a LOT of driving, and mapping out the Goodwills on the routes is definitely a plus!), and 'bottom-feeding' on Ebay (which hasn't been great lately...but occasionally I hit on something good). But now that I'm getting ready for the show on March 7th (three short weeks!), I'm realizing that I've got PILES of records laying around that need to be processed (cleaned, condition checked, value verified, labelled, and bagged). So, that's what I've been doing most evenings & weekends recently (lots of spare time in February in Maine). The sheer amount of 45's I've picked up is for sale is scary...I've easily gotten a few hundred this winter (hit a good flea market last week where I really cleaned up)
It's a fun hobby...listening to records, while preparing them for a show...a vinyl junkie's dream! I'm really amazed at how enjoyable this winter has been, as instead of freaking out on the cold & snow, I simply pull up a box of records to prepare. I'm sure I'll be posting the exact opposite when Spring gets here, but that's still a month or two off...
