  1. SatisfiedMind614 says It has to be weird to live in a town that cares so much more about its tourists than it does its residents! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Vegas, but I imagine its different to live there

  2. Dale says Is that Zia Record Exchange? In Tucson, that was THE place. I could browse there for hours. It's a darn sight better than anything out here.

  4. Violet Grey says Read my comment a few posts up on this one. The music is all that's important. If the passing of record stores means that there will be a few fewer companies that put out music only as a product, then I'm all for it. Can't Stop the Signal
