RECORD STORE DAY - April 19th

This is a wayyy better idea than "World Cow Chip Day" which is one of the holidays that shares the April 19th date (don't believe me, they have ecards for it!). Record Store Day has it's own website where you can see which independent record stores are participating & read quotes from different artists (such as Paul McCartney, Peter Gabriel, Butch Walker, Cameron Crowe, Chuck Berry, Damien Rice, Damon Albarn, Del The Funky Homosapien, Henry Rollins, Joan Jett, Mike Patton, Patterson Hood (Drive-By Truckers), Patton Oswalt, Regina Spektor, Sam Phillips, Ziggy Marley and more) talking about why independent record stores are so important. What will happen on Record Store Day? Not sure, but anything that has to do with celebrating the independent record store is okay in my book. Criminal Records in Atlanta IS participating so be sure to drop by on April 19th and wish 'em a Happy Record Store Day (and maybe buy a record or two ;-) ).
