It’s that time of year again…RECORD STORE DAY!  Last year I went to all my usual spots to check out what was going on.  It was nothing but good times.  Each store had something different going on… and the discounts!  To Beats+Crates Record Store Day is a celebration of independent record stores not being run off by big corporations, and an appreciation to the artists that make the music.  It’s also a good way to meet the artists and other fans.  Check out the background on how Record Store Day got started and find a participating store near you.  Support Local Businesses and go buy a record.  BIG thanks to all the independent stores, artists, DJs, producers, bloggers, music fans, and all those cats still on the grind.
