Record Store Day here in Raleigh was a rousing success. When I arrived at around 8:30 Saturday morning, the line was nearly around the block. Once inside I was able to procure everything I was looking for, which actually wasn't very much this year but the records I'd hoped to find were in short stock so I'm glad I arrived when I did. Our one lone independent record store in Raleigh, Schoolkids Records, was recently taken over by a fellow named Stephen Judge of Blurt Magazine and Second Motion Records (home of The Church and several other bands). Just prior to introducing John Howie, Jr. and the Rosewood Bluff to the crowd around 2 on Saturday as part of the afternoon long line up of entertainment, he told everyone that Saturday had been Schoolkids' best day yet from a financial standpoint. That was very reassuring to hear but unfortunately, they're still fighting what appears to be a losing battle against the popularity of downloads, despite the recent resurgence in vinyl sales. That said, I hope they're able to stick around for many more years to come.

I also picked up a handful of free stuff from Coachella, Sub Pop, Record Store Day, New West, Southern Ground Artists and a Live at Montreux compilation.
"We were listening to the UNC radio (station) there and they were playing an R.E.M. song. I like R.E.M. fine, but at the end of it, the DJ says, 'Ya that was R.E.M., the sound of the new South'. I looked at my roommate and we said, Gawd, if that's the sound of the new South, I preferred it when it was on the skids. That's how we got the name."

Time to start a new thread since it's now May.
