    Technically not midwest I think, but Laramie, Myoming has a surprising amount of heat. There are also some stocked thrifts in Omaha.

    Hey,

    I used to cop heat when I lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I would hit up Music Memories (a little overpriced), Lotusland Records, Farwell Music, and Great Lakes Music and come up fairly regularly. I'm not sure how those shops are now since I moved away from there in 2007.

    Peace,

    I think a lot of dudes on here just don't want to tip their secret squirrel spots. I can tell you that Davenport, Iowa had some unmined spots when I was there two years ago.

    Question: Mac Dre bobblehead, do they have heat out in the Midwest?



    Answer: The game is thick.

    Give the dude a hand though Harv! Council Bluffs, Iowa has a great summertime flea market. Lorrain and Toledo, Ohio had some great thrifts.

    Hey DB_Cooper,

    Speaking of Ohio, I used to come up in a major way at Grumpy's Books in the old Schoolhouse Building in Akron, OH (the building has since been demolished). Also, I used to find heat occasionally at Spin-More Records in Kent, OH. I was in graduate school during this time, and I used to bring home piles of LPs to North Carolina to store in my old bedroom closet at my folk's crib. I couldn't store them in my little-ass apartment, the only kind of place that my meager graduate assistantship could afford me.

    Peace,

    Farthest Midwest I ever go is Dallas. All my records grow from cow dung anyway.

    Ohio definitely has heat. There was a spot in Parma that for some reason was always coming into some heavy stuff. That was a couple of years back, but it was turning stock regularly, so I bet it's still going strong.

    What towns and roads are you hitting?

    Seriously hit me or/both gloom up if you make it to Louisville.
