Hey y'all.It's time again for my "yard sale" record swap. The date is set for Sunday, May 23rd -that's 2 weeks from next Sunday! The rain date will be 2 weeks later, June 6th.So most of you know the deal - anyone is welcome to come sell, I don't charge, and myhouse is in a heavy heavy foot traffic district, a big house and open lawn in the middle of the Jamaica Plain business district. Between the foot traffic and the heavy advertising and rep this sale has among Boston collectors, the turnout is usuallyphenomenal. My usual advice stands - bring your $1 records to unload on the local foot traffic,and bring your heavy pieces to sell to or trade with fellow collectros.And while I don't charge to set up a table, I do ask you to BRING BEER 
The swap runs from 11AM until around 3PM or so ... and we all catch a good buzz.The location is on Centre St. in Jamaica Plain.Now the question is, WHO IS IN?Post here with your status and any questions you might have.I have a feeling this year's is going to be huge!some flicks from last year's swap:

I'm freelancing in Boston for summer. At least until August. In.
As a buyer this year. I just gave all my chud and sell stock to a friend's aspiring young hipsteur DJ brother.
Willie - yes, that is Reed of IYE.
DB: psyched you'll be here - bring some of that basement random rap HEET!
Damn, Courtney Cox & Larry King collect records?!!
Dude, ageism is rampant on this board, bw/ who's gonna be the one to break it to Funke? Lolz
Dude's 45 game is UN-FUK-WIT-AB-LE
He has that look in his eye. I bet he really drops some cash there too.
uhhhh ... no. haha.
haha, I got'cha
Y'all even got Reid out of the shop that's awesome.
and yeah I've heard john funke drop some gemmms at zuzu
wow. U got me so good on this one! I take back what I said about throwing a bag of dicks on your lawn.
I'll be selling/trading again this year. I had a real good time, made a bunch of loot and got some great records for myself last time.
WORTH THE TRIP IF YOU'RE DEBATING ON GOING-JUST DOO IT!
Looking for a roll call of who is definitely SELLING at this ... not clear
as of yet who is actually setting up.
DJ Willderness? Are you selling?
Xavier?? Are you setting up again (please) ?
Lambert?
Anyone else?
As of now confirmed sellers are:
ME
Keith/Axe Foley
Brother Wayne
Mike/Analog Tape
supposedly a friend of The Non's
my boy Dana (mainly CD's, he does well being the only CD guy usually)
this dude Eddy that just hollered at me on FB
... so, who else?? HOLLER
and otherwise, if you are within 100 miles of this next Sunday, you should really come
just a little local paper with a circulation of over 200,000 ...
the online piece is pretty dull but the print version not only used that
write-up, but posted a pic of my flyer, pinched from Facebook!
not bad for a little yard sale among friends
this may help boost attendance even higher ...
