DC's ONLY Vinyl Record Blog Seeks Writers/Contributors
June 12, 2008 at 01:54 PM UTC
#
We're almost a year old and going strong–12,591 visitors last month from the DC area and all around the globe. (No joke - I'll show ya the stats.) But it ain't easy being a one-man blog so I'm looking for some pixel-pushers. There's no $ involved, just heaps of promo CDs, press passes, and free tickets to local gigs. Then there's that sheer joy of promoting the resurgence of vinyl and the fine stores in the area such as Som, Red Onion, Crooked Beat, and Smash who are braving the new, old world. Regular, frequent, infrequent contributors all welcome. Check the blog out and say hello.

This is like vegetarians that wear leather.
You should keep it real and put it out as a newsletter on ink and paper.

because pretty soon, just like vinyl, nobody but a niche market will give a shit about cds.
Awesome and then I'll be cool because I have a lot of CDs word and I'll sport them with pride like my Crocs yo
guess I picked the wrong week to quit getting high in hte middle of a work day and Iron Man awaits!

Good point about the CDs…but what can I say? They send em almost daily (along with vinyl, to be fair.) And, odd consumer that I am, I'll listen to the CD to see if I like something - then buy the vinyl component. Same with the MP3s on the blog…
