Well, Record Store Day was great for my ears, but not for my bank account. I had a great time at The Great Escape on Charlotte Avenue. I walked in at 10:15 and got all the RSD specials that I wanted without waiting in line. I then looked through all the fifty cent LPs.

Just listened to the Beastie Boys Record Store Day 12" single. Daft Punk samples?! Oh yeah.

I went to Grimey's for a bit, but wasn't there too long. I was at one of the check-points for the first alley-cat of the spring. I just sat outside Yazoo (the new place is great, btw) for a while and drank and chatted with some people from Denmark. It was very "laterly." Then went to a cook-out, drank some more beers, had some food, and ended up calling 911 for the second time in my life. We saw this woman wreck her car by where we were. She was okay, but not excited. We think she hit the gas instead of the brake and she destroyed a sign and almost hit a house. Crazy stuff.
