Austin Record Convention

For those who do not yet know......  the next Austin Record Convention starts Friday September 29th and lasts though Sunday October 1st. As I have been for about the last 30 years I will be there trying to match up music to mostly total strangers. Am spending about 6 weeks looking through my 100000 LPs to see what may capture someones fancy. Part of this process is checking interesting items for condition, at the moment I am listening to an odd disc by Rob Meurer called Synth for Christmas. For those in the area with the desire, a relatively recent feature at the show is a search by text option. Rather than wander for hours, if you are not a fan of wandering, you can go to Convention central and send out info on the specific items you are searching for and then that text will be relayed to the dealers that have signed up to receive it and hopefully someone has it and will get in touch. It is one of the worlds oldest and biggest record shows and for those that still purchase music in a physical medium, it will not disappoint.
