Best Venues in Chicago by ricepuffin chicagomusicscene

[–]brian001 0 points1 point ago

Lincoln Hall is a solid venue, and has great sound, but I always feel too jammed in if i'm on the main floor, and the balcony is hard to get a good view from unless you're right up on the railing.

The record room by brian001in vinyl

[–]brian001[S] 0 points1 point ago

Its not a bad TT, basically a clone of a Technics 1200, but I would like to upgrade. The iTT03X is pretty solid, i've had it 6 or 7 years, and it was my first "new" TT after a decade of using shitty thrift shop finds.

Kenwood JL-505s. Big and loud, but not so great. I mostly listen with headphones.

KING KHAN JOINS THE SPITS!!!!! by Pandafartin punk

[–]brian001 1 point2 points ago

Mine came to about $18.50 including shipping to the US, I can't see a domestic distro being able to sell it much cheaper.

Used vinyl pricing guide? by Steve_Dallasin vinyl

[–]brian001 2 points3 points ago

Any price in a printed book is useless. Popsike, collectors frenzy, or a search of COMPLETED ebay auctions is the way to go. If you use discogs to price records, use the sales history, not the current selling price.

Search for "cheesecake" on ebay and limit your search results to records.

Expedit's glaring problem by random_storyin vinyl

[–]brian001 8 points9 points ago

Alphabetize. I've got 2000+ records stored in Expedits, and have never had a problem finding a record, as long as it was filed correctly.

What is this for? by Iamthechemistin vinyl

[–]brian001 11 points12 points ago

Its a record changer. Don't use it on records you want to keep mint.

[–]brian001 2 points3 points ago

They posted something in late March that shipping was delayed a few weeks due to a backup at the pressing plant.

Looking for a good way to store 45' s. by Joephesin vinyl

[–]brian001 1 point2 points ago

If you know anyone that works in a bar or restaurant, boxes from bevnaps or tealights are the same dimensions as the cardboard 45 boxes sold at places like bags unlimited.

Going to be in Chicago for the weekend, does Reddit have any suggestions for record stores to check out ? by vincientjamesin vinyl

[–]brian001 2 points3 points ago

14 of my favorites, arranged South to North

If you've got any money left after hitting those, there are a few more good ones just outside the city.

[Weekend Discussion for 4/13/12]: What is your favorite record store? by theonegreatxin vinyl

[–]brian001 2 points3 points ago

I loved this place when I lived out east. They always had great stuff priced to move, and a killer $1 section. I think they've moved a few times since I was last there, glad they're still around.

Bunch of new stuff for sale... by brian001in VinylCollectors

[–]brian001[S] 0 points1 point ago

I made it using Zen Cart. As long as you already have hosting & a domain name, it's free. Initial setup was a little tricky, but not too bad, and once it's all setup it's easy to keep updated.
