lovely day outside. could be slow. hell, even i'd be outside if i wasn't working. that's how nice it is.
sporadic record-related updates as events occur.
last saturday a completely out of it middle-aged man got tazed outside my store at LEAST ten times. While standing and while on the ground. as he lay on the ground with handcuffs finally secured to his wrists he kept yelling: "white ni**er, white ni**er, white ni**er" over and over in his delirium. time it took for entire police force to show up: five minutes.

had a nice visit from my brother's friend bob. formerly of se*a*oh. when i start having bands play here i'm gonna ask him to play. he's got good taste in records. or maybe it's just my kinda taste. bought a Gershwin boxed set and a Crow record and some other things.
now it's off to ebay to list some U2 rarities. LOVE selling stuff on ebay that i care nothing about!

this is a weird thing to complain about, and i'm not really complaining, but this guy - very cool, nice guy, record collector - told me he had a big box of old heavy metal magazines that he would just give me for the store. i thought: cool! i used to dig heavy metal when i was a kid. what i think must have passed me by was how seriously tacky and embarrassing so many 90's heavy metal magazine covers are. So many sub-Olivia/Boris softcore pinup covers. oy vey. i mean, the mag was seriously raunchy in the 80's too (yes, i was a Den fan) but then at least you would have some weirder moebius covers or more sci-fi stuff in general. inside too, just sooooooo much comix porn. oh well. i'll put them in a dark corner somewhere. i mean, i want women to shop here. and gay women at that. i am in western mass after all.

since this is also the people watching thread i would like to introduce a little character known as "inner child."
inner child made his first appeerance in over a year today. Short man wit thinning, oversized t-shirt (often with wizard or dragon) & jean shorts, sandals. Incredibly whiney voice--he is identifiable over the phone, as sometimes before coming (from Jersey) he'll call to ask if we "have any rare psychedelic or progressive lps" on the wall. upon walking in he will study the wall intently, asking what each & every record is like and often taking them down to examine etc. today was a fun day cuz we have a whole section of the wall with a lot of mediocre-but-rare uk folk stuff, and some prog. so he was all excited to learn about that. luckily today k33gan got the task of helping him pull down records to look at (short man as i said before.)
he was just at the listening station with two 8-10" piles of records stacked one atop the other on the floor, in front of the other turntable. when asked to move them he became confused and sort of non-responsive, needed to be reminded a few times to put the records on the table. he is into talking to you about records too of course! "do you like german stuff?" "i like the really heavy and progressive stuff."
― ian, Saturday, 18 July 2009 20:27 (4 months ago) Permalink
he once punched j0hn all3n cuz j0hn said "SRC sucks."

i know it's not cool to make fun of the developmentally disabled, but i can't help myself. this guy is so ridic.
i think he goes shopping with his dad. some older guy, who he calls Stu. post-shopping argument with Stu about how much money he is allowed to spend etc (after trading in a variety of mediocre psychedelic & prog records etc.) getting agitated because he has to put records back into their sleeves and "you don't want them to be out of their protective sleevse do you?!?!" (we keep wall records out of the jackets.)

i mean...
ha! hoo boy. all of a sudden i'm regretting that i post under my own name and everything. i feel like gossiping.
woman and her brother dumped four big boxes of records on me for free cuz they were getting rid of stuff from their grandfather's house. total city dump stuff as far as i'm concerned and i'm wondering why the hell i even agreed to take it when i pull out a prefectly nice copy of the Surfaris Play album on decca. In mono, even. yay! so, that alone is worth me having to haul everything else down to the basement. sounds great. I mean, it's probably only a 30-50 dollar record, but i'm always happy to see nice playable copies of records like that. it's the little things in life...

i tried really hard to find, like, TWO big boxes of good stuff to justify my time and back pain. this stuff must havee belonged to a dealer at one point. all the good stuff was gone. this guy (who has the records now) used to work clearing houses and buildings. he thought he could eventually make money off of them, but he never got around to it. i tried to explain to the guy that it was like looking at a baseball card collection with all the rookie cards missing.
