every stroy I hear about this show is amazing and Ironfeet was recruiting me and couple other record nerds last week at Buena Park. It may just have to be on and popping
I really wish I could make it for the JA records alone!! FUCK!!!
make it happen guzzo.
T*m & Chr*s,
are either one of you selling at Austin this year? and if so would you have room for a extra medium dude to slang some raers at y'alls tables?
I put in a call yesterday to Mr. Friends of Sound to get some info yesterday and I got a call from a Los Angeles soulstrutter about going down there. things are looking promising but like I said before it really comes down to whether or not I can freelance work my way aaround that weekend.
I got my fingers crossed and I'm hoping for limited fishfights
We should have a BBQ too just to let em know.
Driving all the way down this time (at that is something else considering it's Toronto that I leave...damn long way). I'll be with my good friend Akim, who will have some nice Psych and Prog pieces with him. I might have a tidbit or two as well.
Looking forward to seeing all folks I know like Chris, Tim and Rich, and looking forward to meeting others i don't know.
Cheers,
Aaron
at my house and i nominate nrich grill master.
Plus just saw John the UK dude at 1/2 Price today in Dallas and I want my booth next to his - he's got the best food/stories.
I'm on it
oh shit...i forgot all about that....damn you gots to get that on CD for me. I loved that track!!!! Thanks for reminding me...looking forward to seeing you too buddy...
would like to and maybe i can make something work.
but just too busy up here in nyc and too broke to afford expenses + personal spending once there.
will actually miss WFMU too as a friend's wedding is the same weekend.
austin will have to survive w.out the "boot sales" from the trunk- pre-show- i think it's been two years now.
have fun... will miss the festivities. the hotel party (even if moved from the hotel). hoover's. the private press finds of the year.
peace.
sorry but no... it ain't Austin without you....please to report to the reassessment centre for reprogramming and reinstatement...from there you will then find yourself selling records out of the back of your car to all those wiling to buy. Thank you... that is all.
Nrich burnt my Tofurkey dogs last time.
Coolhands isn't from Texas, so he can't be trusted with a BBQ pit.
I'm a vegetarian, nobody will trust me.
Maybe Hobo D should be grill master raer.
Maybe just whoever is sober enough to stand by a pit and not set themself on fire should do it.
watch the slander talk bro, I'm am a seasoned bbq pro.
It's hard to bbq tofu dogs on a smoker bbq pit (with coals in the main smoker chamber no less) in a pitch black dark corner of a yard by flashlight.
disqualified due to tofu
Anyone else decide to make the Vinyl Hajj this year?
i'm half way there now
i'll be rolling in thursday - mid day
hope to see y'all
Half way there???
With that type of trip you should get a couple different corporate sponsors, an RV and have some "Digging Across America" trip. You could have your own line of special digging headbands.
