Something for Nothing

Despite the incredibly unpleasant weather, I decided to make my way down to Colfax Ave. this afternoon in the interest of support independent artists, record labels, and brick-and-mortar record stores for the third annual Record Store Day! Aside from the free food, live music, and hilarious get-ups sported by what I can only assume were employees, I took the opportunity -- splitting my time between two stores -- to peruse a number of limited and not-so-limited releases for sale.

The end result?
Take a look:



Sheesh...
I might as well just melt a hole right into my credit card.

But, hey, as bad as I feel about spending so much money (and, yeah, it was kind of a lot...), I can at least take comfort in the fact that I have made an effort to support the noble end of the dying industry -- and one that I fully believe in at that.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some listening to attend to...
