Minimalist walk up songs should be a thing.

When in SC, I frequent a Subway that plays MSNBC. That takes some courage in those parts.

Everyone knows it’s near the Erol’s video store.

On those nifty preschool-friendly stickers AF means β€œart force”, right? Arlington Art Force.

Shelf Life Books Richmond, VA. Owned by Chris and Berkley McDaniel, the store is staffed by long-time patrons and is a hub for local authors and book lovers alike. We’ve got new books on our lower level and five rooms...

Happened by this book shop in Richmond over the weekend (just up from Plan 9): shelflifebooksrva.com. Very prominent ICE Is Not Welcome Here sign at the entrance.

Whoa… over 24,000 old vinyl LPs digitized and available for free to the public, including over 5,000 from shuttered Seattle record store Bop Street

I'm reading Don’t Skip Out On Me currently. Read his first three years ago.

I grew up in the south and was in SC last week. Crazy hot.

Afternoon thunderstorms and 94% humidity at 6AM.

I was out for a run in a small town neighborhood yesterday around 6AM and a delivery driver was blasting Children of the Grave. Black Sabbath is having a moment maybe.

A catalog of these items would be nice to have. There’s lots of stuff never issued on CD that should be widely available.

I’d add Hud and Absence of Malice.

I saw them live and met them when I was 15 (they were opening for Ozzy). All but Lars signed this poster. He refused because it was a bootleg poster.

FWIW, in my experience Mary Riley Styles is the best of the reciprocity set. And it’s conveniently located to CD Cellar.

Your South Arlington orientation is preventing you from asking the question correctly. The correct question is: "how many spaces adjacent to your home belong to you." If one were to ask ol' Seven Spot <redacted>, the answer is seven.

Yep. Now we need the Makanda Project to make a record.

Not DC but not too far, both Normals and Sound Garden in Baltimore might have what you're after (though I've not been to either for over a year).
