record store day

Well today was quite an eventful day... Woke up to the sound of someone having a shower in the crawlspace. Le what you say. Woozle wazzle? Well when it rains it pours; sewer backup style. The kitchen drain, which is 1 3/4", starts to never endingly pour out in the unfinished kitchen. How does one stop that? My palm worked well for about 10 mins, but that needed something more permanent. TAPE. More tape. Then towels...

there i fixed it

Anyways, the adrenaline only wore off after breakfast, right when the hangover kicked in. Awesome. Then a nap was had. Then we had to go antiquing... Reminds me of this...




Ridiculous, I am wearing almost exactly what he is wearing. Anyways... I wasn't really feeling it until we hit the vinyl. Then my frown turned upside down.


Even got a case...

record store day!!!

So many gems, I actually downloaded the blogger app so I could share!


So I'm 14 weeks away from becoming a responsible dad, I simply couldn't resist! These are simply awesome and I hope our boy/girl gets years out of these. 

pinocchio and winnie the pooh... ummm, YES

chipmunks and jungle book on vinyl, sweet

huckleberry hound and disney on vinyl, the kid will think it's 1958

Zorro is for you Sergio. Mexican.

such a happy zorro - until he stabs you

Garret. Last years resolution was to be more gangsta... again. This year starting May 1st, it will be to give country a try. Maybe this way I won't cringe whenever I get in the car after Alex has been driving. 

We're living pretty much on the border now, so this makes sense. I can't believe I get the keys to the FARM in 10 days. 10 days. I still can't believe I own this <--.

bob and doug on vinyl, great condition minus the maple syrup

These were purchased with the sole purpose of 1-upping Routhier.

David Bowie. Come on, my idol. He's totally made out with Mic Jagger, you all know it.

bowie is simply amazing

I don't know what it is, but I'm on a Supertramp kick. Love it!

Who can resist Chet Atkins? This is Chet. Chet is the best name after Garret; there's just something about these country names. I never heard the name Garret until I met Garret! He exists.

chet atkins a man for every occasion 

I did get one new one, faaaantastic!

Also got more Christmas records cause the 2 I used last year had waaaay to much vibrato... And yes, in case you were wondering, Chet Atkins also did Christmas.

I didn't know "Bruno" went anywhere except right beside all of our hearts.

bruce willis - pretty good harmonica player; since when do harmonica players make the cover solo?

This was bought for obvious reasons.

unicorn awesome spiral of majesty and wonder

The list goes on. Got a ton of musicals like the King and I, a bunch of country, Irish tunes, Charlie Pride, Tchaikovsky and yes, even Whitney (at a non-inflated price).


All this for around $175. Score.


Plus is IS record Store Day 2012. One day a year where new super rare stuff is released and there are percentages off stuff. Of any of the days to get records, today WAS the day. Besides, buying stuff always makes you feel better.


So the day went from cold to hot. Also got the birds and dogs some toys and took the day off to be human with them again. You know everything needs to play.


Happy house.


Cheers
