Is there a really good, dirt cheap online store anyone can recommend?


Never heard of this chain--from Cleveland down to Canton, but not in Cincinnati. We need one here. I've probably driven past one of their Indianapolis locations without realizing it--will have to check them out the next time I'm in Indy.

Since the demise of lala.com, I'm unaware of any online shop that has consistently low CD prices. Amazon has some deals, but from vendors other than Amazon itself. The $3.98 shipping and handling might put you off, though. Half Price Books' website has some deals as well sometimes.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but have you heard the album before? Are you a Liars fan in general?

If you've not heard the album, but like the band, I am genuinely envious of you. Sometimes great bands go from plain old "great" to over the fucking moon, and DND is one of the best examples of this I think I've ever encountered.

I never bothered to read your location. I'm in Canton! Neat. Anyway, the campus area doesn't have a cool used store? Apparently rampant homophobia isn't your city's only problem.

Mole's used to be in the UC campus area--not sure if they're still there because I very seldom go to the area anymore. All of the cool music clubs are now in other parts of town.

Shake It Records in the increasingly trendy (but still somewhat rough) Northside area has a huge new and used selection but one of the owners is a total dick. I prefer Everybody's Records in Pleasant Ridge, not far off of I-71 for people who might be in the area.

Your homophobia comment is old news--the city has made a lot of progress in the last few years, to the point where a lot of gay leaders have praised the city. You can google all of this. But yes, Cincinnati still has some problems, unlike Canton which has nothing but problems. :fuckyou:

Just kidding. Let me know if you'll be in Columbus or Cleveland for a show. We could get together beforehand to hoist a couple and talk music.

How you mean, like in putting out at least three new albums year?

Ha! Didn't mean to offend your city pride. I have zero, so there isn't much anyone can say about this shitpit I'd disagree with. Anyway, glad "you" evolved (as if a city is a monolith with one brain).

Look forward to it. I see the Grog Shop in Cleveland will have the Church in early March, and Gang of Four a few days later. What year is this?

Picked up Queen's "A Kind of Magic" and the musical score to season 1 of "Game of Thrones"

Severian 02.28.2015 07:25 PM

Bought a reissue of Computer World just kinda because.

Well, more because I love Kraftwerk and this album in particular... Also because it's one of the few reissues I didn't previously own, and it was going for $5.00 at some used music store...

But there "just because" definitely had something to do with it.

You're welcome. I'm really looking forward to her new album which will feature Adrian Utley and Sharon Van Etten.
