Not to be confused with Illegal Download BitTorrent Day, Record Store Day is an attempt for small independent record stores to remind music fans everywhere that, yes, they do still exist and you should go into them and actually buy music for a change.
Tomorrow’s event—in which hundreds of stores across the country are celebrating—will feature some great local events which include, but are not limited to; live music and free gift bags with CDs/7”s/goodies (Music Millennium), special sales and giveaways (Everyday Music), and a chance to whup Menomena’s collective ass in foosball (Jackpot Records Downtown).
If you need a YouTube clip to document the demise of independent record stores, then click here for the trailer to I Need That Record!: The Death (Or Possible Survival) of the Independent Record Store, which despite its title, is not about feral cats. I think it’s about record stores or something.
