DC Vinyl Collectors/Cratediggers thread...

Yeah, it was way to crowed. Some dude with his large stomach snaked his way past me and I almost fell into one of the tables. It was too much to try to hang around and find some hidden gems but I got the following.

The Jam: Setting Sons
Magazine: Secondhand Daylight
Galaxy 500: This is Our Music (New)
VU & Nico (New 180g)
Kraftwerk: Ralf and Florian
Eno: Music For Films
Sun Ra: Strange Strings (new 180g)

Tight space at Comet…

Yes.

:(

I wasn't very happy because I felt incredibly claustrophobic – after walking in, I was strongly tempted to walk right back out.  I managed to make myself stay for 45 minutes, but I had to spend a good bit of time waiting just to get access to the crates.  The two dealers I'd bought from at the previous fair weren't there, and I left empty-handed.

I'm hoping they can strike a better balance of number of vendors to the amount of available space for the next fair.  I enjoyed the previous one (except for the lack of air conditioning in the hot weather), and managed to get 6 or 7 records and 5 CDs.

I do remember doing a show at Comet and it was a very tight packed place. Still fun to go to but be prepare to be in a tight spot. They did this record fair at Comet before, right?

Some of those records were way overpriced from what they looked like. I'm glad I just went theough the cheaper stuff. Without previewing some of those records, I would've been ass out…..
