Anyone know if I can sell CDs & vinyl (without having to set up a booth)? Or should I just bring them to OtherKimsetc.

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 22 April 2004 20:36 (twenty years ago) link

Kim's is probably the best deal in the city for selling used cds

― sexyDancer, Thursday, 22 April 2004 20:51 (twenty years ago) link

Tanks. I'll plan on selling my (crap) CDs and heading over to the record fair to buy new ones!

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 22 April 2004 21:09 (twenty years ago) link

It's too late to set up a booth. The fair isn't really a good place for selling records to dealers. If you want to sell stuff at the next fair, you should contact Mike Lupica at WFMU.

I think Saturday's sold out, but we have tables for Sunday. Email mike@wfmu.org for the skinny.

I don't think Steve Keene's coming this time unfortunately.... but should also mention that when you're tired shopping there's gonna be a boatload of great/insane videos showing in the A/V lounge, punk clips, The Gary Wilson doc, this fantastic Nihilist Spasm Band documentary I saw in London this year and tracked down for the fair that is just mindblowing....

There's gonna be a live karaoke band too plus Brother JT and Ill Ease playing. And yeah, Sunday's a great day for pickins with different dealers. I got the George Harrassment /homosexuals offshoot record for $10 on a sunday...

― Brian Turner (btwfmu), Friday, 23 April 2004 03:21 (twenty years ago) link

Oh is that the Nihilist Spasm Band thing that Zev Asher did? Yeah that is wonderful! I saw it a couple years ago at a film fest. A must must must see!! Nice work getting it, Brian.

Also, the FMU table of used cds doesn't get opened until 7pm Friday when the regular, non-$20-paying people are allowed entry. This is mainly so the dealers who are already at the fair don't clean us out of our good cheapies which they go and resell. Many of the $20 people are there to get the big-deal collectables anyway, so it kind of makes sense. I advise anyone coming Friday evening to check out the $3, $8 and $1 CD tables, they are looking pretty good this year (esp. the $3 CDs). Say hi, I'll be manning em and beating the dealers off with my electrified cattleprod.

Brian, come and sit on my lap.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:41 (nineteen years ago) link

Seriously, try a Diablo too. they are so so good.

― danh, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:43 (nineteen years ago) link

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:47 (nineteen years ago) link

I am walking out of that record fair with a stack of BILLY JOEL LP's in one arm and a stack STOCKHAUSEN LP's in the other.

BOO-YA!!!

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:48 (nineteen years ago) link

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:48 (nineteen years ago) link

FUCK WALKING, if I get that ATTILA LP...I AM RIDING SATAN HOME.

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 13:53 (nineteen years ago) link

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:29 (nineteen years ago) link

3 singles? There's just gonna be one, and they have it, artwork's not done. Jeff's book is finished, too. I'll email Jon and see what time they go on.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:36 (nineteen years ago) link

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:45 (nineteen years ago) link

i don't see many girls liking coptic light. is that sexist?

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:46 (nineteen years ago) link

my girlfriend likes them.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:47 (nineteen years ago) link

if a balding jewish dood, noodling on his guitar doesn't get your engine started...you're already dead.

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:48 (nineteen years ago) link

i've seen them a bunch.. i dunno. it just doesn't appeal. i may be bananas, but i know what i like.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:55 (nineteen years ago) link

Jon Fine IS the Jewish Sonny Sharrock.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 14:56 (nineteen years ago) link

with a delay pedal.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:01 (nineteen years ago) link

what does that make Kevin Shea?

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:10 (nineteen years ago) link

the Irish Animal from the Muppets?

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:14 (nineteen years ago) link

the Milford Graves of New School University?

CL sometime around 10 PM, maybe later, according to Fine.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:24 (nineteen years ago) link

gotta stick with "play the instore, then drink mint juleps" I think

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:29 (nineteen years ago) link

well I might have to go to instore, go see CL, then get juleps. Or maybe put juleps first. Either way, if Pete's fucks up and still doesn't have mint, I can grab some on the way.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:31 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't think Steve Keene's coming this time unfortunately....

OH NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! my life suddenly has no meaning. my favorite all-time record fair buy was my steve keene neil young statuette. $1. i was so hoping to buy neil some friends this year.

― fact checking cuz (fcc), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 16:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Yeah, I was thinking of getting mint on the way also. Steve Keene also didn't do the last record fair. It is all very sad.

― Carey (Carey), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 18:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Steve Keene also didn't do the last record fair.

ahem. yes he did.

― ddb, Wednesday, 28 April 2004 18:12 (nineteen years ago) link

if y'all want to go to Pete's on Fri night, you can see my friend Pete (!) play there from 9-10:30

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 18:26 (nineteen years ago) link

not likely!

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 18:27 (nineteen years ago) link

i figured

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 18:29 (nineteen years ago) link

I'll be volunteering at the fair on Sunday. Can't wait to buy lots of records.

― mcd (mcd), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 20:12 (nineteen years ago) link

my old college chum Pete Galub...

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 20:14 (nineteen years ago) link

Where was Steve Keene at the last fall one? I was volunteering and he was nowhere to be found.

― Carey (Carey), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 23:09 (nineteen years ago) link

I think he had mini-paintings (CD's?) last time.

― Brian Turner (btwfmu), Thursday, 29 April 2004 02:21 (nineteen years ago) link

gang gang dance will be at tommy's tonight as well, word

― cutty (mcutt), Thursday, 29 April 2004 12:12 (nineteen years ago) link

I made the instore but I was way way way too shy to come up and say hello. Apart from the new album, I'm not very familiar with John's music so I was surprised at how lively he was live -- sometimes his whole body spasms up to emphasize a word or line.

Be happy they put on clothes, even if it's a Bad News Bears jersey.

Unlikely to make it today due to dumb job seeking.
