Record Store Day

[Music Head]

Independent record stores also participate. Criminal Records, the independent I mention (but not by name) in the other thread on record stores, always has a big shindig. As Gryphon says there are exclusive deals, in-store performances, giveaways, etc. They pitch it as a "celebration" of your local record store but of course it is an effort to make money and generate interest. They are a business!

So this is a U.S. thing too?

I thought it was just European.
