An amount that completely justifies my choice to not work this weekend.
Yes, indeed, this shit was cooking!
There was a nice 2 hour stretch where the place
was packed, and heavy gripping, trading, and drinking
was taking place all about.
The guy with the canopy was J*m, who I don't think posts
on here but is a regular on Waxidermy as MoeLarry&Jesus
and was a hella nice dude. From him I got my score of the
day, something I had been after for a loooooong time:
Big shout to you, Lambert - you always bring the dope records,
a great attitude, and I see you chatting up everyone in the spot,
keeping things social and not just grip-fest. D*n also has the
hottest dollar bins in the U.S.A. and came through with the sick
Irakere og on Areito for me!
Strutters were everywhere. I had my digi-cam but was too manic to
remember until people had cleared out. But I think PJ took a bunch
of snaps and should hopefully have some up for everyone soon.
Speaking of, PJ and the Soul-le-lu-jah crew represented in force, and
came through with some trade heat. I think I did deals with all of those
dudes.
KitchenKnight is like the true host, working the crowd and making it like
Soul Strut in real life, with clon & hustle and grip mode action. Gareth
is the man, and I wouldn't want to have one of these without him.
Great Blue Hills came through and made the rounds, presented me with
some of the finest greens I have smoked in a minute, and I had to keep
turning him down so I could hold my wits, but he was down to PARTY. He
also picked up a few sick records, and was as mellow in real life as on
teh internets.
Shit, I'm babbling. I had such a fuckin' good time today, thanks to
everyone that came by, this shit is real and I'm just glad to see us
pull off shit in Boston that is this mellow and poppin'.
How about some JP Vinyl Yard Sale & Record Swap FINDS:
If anyone in Boston today saw a white guy with a royal blue hat on erratically driving a bright red Chevy Impala screaming "FUCKING NAVIGATION MY BIG WHITE ASS" at the top of his lungs and punching the shit out of the horn, dashboard, navigation system, and passenger seat, that was me. Impressive thoroughfares you have there, they really keep you on your toes.
Seriously, megathanks to G**** for giving me a ride over to JP, and providing entertainment all day. "WHO LIKES IRONY? THESE GUYS ARE TOTALLY KROSSED OUT!"
Some pics:
Tepid Terds for DAYS, yo:
Dollar Bin BALLERS:
Grippers:
I didn't take pics of my pulls/trades (yet) but I did pretty good, thanks M**k. I didn't take alot of time getting ready so I really didn't make money. I broke even on trades/money tho, so it all worked out. The boxes of 12"/LPs that I brought had already been picked thru from a flea market a month or so ago......people dug my 45s though.
I was really hoping to drop some loot on Ty, but he had a late night in Providence the Saturday, so he was home sleepin (it off?).
Can't wait for the next one!

Yeah, I hit your spot like a sailor on shore leave! I think it had to do with the fact it was my only day off this weekend and that my beverage of choice was the oh-so-tasty-but-9%-alcohol Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA. After three of those and a nice bowl with M***, I wandered home, wondering what had become of all my money and how I got so banged up on a Sunday afternoon.
I had a blast. Thanks to SOI, KitchenKnight, and PJ for good conversation, recommendations, great deals, and all-around realness. To those I didn't meet, well, that's what next time is for!
whats this about a re-do in september?
I actually asked around about you when it came time to smoke. Best stuff I've had in a long while.
It was shortly after that that I began methodicaly emptying my wallet. Deals for days, son!
i feel like
