    It does seem but im mad skeptical having accumulative dead skin and little hairs near vinyl.
    The maintenance would have to be exceptional to keep that shit out of the air.


    omg do u even digg bro

    Record shops are usually quite clean.

    Diggin in some underground back room damp basement dollar bin shit is another animal, and I wouldnt be gettin' my hair cut at The Thing.

    the UV wand doesn't lie.

    I'm sure Japan has some places that executes this concept well.....with good music and without a hipster crowd.

    There used to be a bar/coffeeshop/furniture/record store all in one in Brooklyn a once hot spot along the F line.

    I forget the area.

    Halcyon. Boerum Hill. They moved to DUMBO and got rid of the coffe shop/bar/furniture and focused on records only.

    "hot spot", please...
    hot like dead hobo feet... that piece of shit place was the first of many pretentious bullshit places to ruin my old neighborhood. First telltale sign of a tidal wave of shit to roll in.

    Hey, we're not that bad. :(

    Yeah, it wasn't that bad. It definitely catered to the more house/electronic/downtempo crowd, but I enjoyed stopping in there from time to time. I would find the more random/eclectic rap records that Fat Beats and Turntable Lab wouldn't get.

    batmon: about record stores at night, there was a well known shop on I think Carmine St that used to open up when all the clubs were letting out so people could pick up the records they heard that night. This was back in the Paradise Garage days; read about in Love Saves The Day, name escapes me at the moment and I'm at work so can't look it up.

    food and drinks and the general public in the same spot as records sounds like a sticky and stained mess :pasue: waiting to happen.
    I used to get real uptight seeing people flip through records with a coffee in one hand, now it'll be a coffee and crumbly muffin?

    Definitely. If I were a store owner, I'd be stressed out at the thought of someone spilling their coffee on a bin of valuable records.

    seen in local alternative weekly paper The Stranger, in a bartender profiles section. At this bar (we haven't discussed the name yet, "Revolutions"):

    yeah I haven't been to that Easy Street in a long time but when they first opened the cafe I looked up and my waitress was the waitress from the shuttered Benbow and we were like no way because once we were in there with some crazed BMXer kids and dude straight barfed all over the table and she came over and wiped all the dude's sick into an empty pitcher and without missing a beat she goes "what'll ya have" and we lost our minds and boom there she was taking omelet orders in front of pearl jam cd's or whatever so yeah I've heard of it and RIP OG Benbow and OG West Seattle in general for that matter and Seattle while we're at it peace
