| Is that it? I thought it was upwards of $200. Maybe everything will be normal prices then. That Flaming Lips set would be dyn-o-mite!! |

I'm excited about this! There are two stores on my street participating and the radio station I work for is really heavily promoting this. Can't believe I didn't hear about it until this year. I can't wait to stock up! |

| I just found out my town got it's first record store, and it is participating in this. But I have to work, so I might send my girlfriend to pick some stuff up for me. |

Probably Neptoon and Redcat. They are in close proximity to one another and seem to have there shit together for the event. If neither of those stores have the deftones covers record I'm looking for I may head down to Scratch as well. |

| Unfortunately probably missed out on all the good stuff this morning thanks to work, but I'm still looking forward to hitting up the store here. They're having super sales on everything, plus free hot dogs, hamburgers, popcorn, sno cones, jump castle and... massages. |

| went and saw Low do a short in store earlier. I don't really care much about exclusive 7 inches or anything so it really just felt like black friday for music snobs. Still, it was nice to see Low... |

Well, I'm glad I had the foresight to get the colored vinyl (limited to 1,000) Heady Nuggs set from the Flaming Lips website this morning at 2AM - they were already sold out of the black vinyl version at my local record store. $129.99, not bad!
The Lips' decision to feature the colored vinyl exclusively on their website kinda defeats the porpoise of Record Store Day, but whatever.  |

My winnings for today. I didn't do my research to see if we'd be getting anything special, because I knew I wouldn't get up early enough, but I did spend too much money.
And my record player decided to crap out on me today. I need my tax refund. |

| Hey look the soft bulletin. |

Haha it's lovely... too bad it won't play. well it will, but it's skipping like crazy. I think my needle is fucked. |

Got to my local record store too late for any Record Store Day stuff but I ended up picking up vinyl for cheap anyways:
Hüsker Dü - Warehouse: Songs and Stories Radiohead - Pablo Honey (180 gram Remaster) Supersuckers - How the Supersuckers Became the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World (FUCK YEAH!) Drive-By Truckers - Gangstabilly Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska The Monks - Bad Habits The Jim Carroll Band - Catholic Boy
Disappointed that I missed the Foo Dr. Garbanzohters and Grinderman releases today.
