Yay Tegan and Sara! Have a great time! And if they ask for requests, ask for "Painting Songs" or "Star Money." It will make you look really cool and knowledgeable.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Damn my brother! Damn him! t shakes tiny fist
I'm leaving tomorrow morning to go to Vermont for his wedding. He called me just now and asked me if I could go to the indie record store around the corner from me (Shake It Records), to pick up a reissue of a local band's CD. I said sure. Then I looked at their website, particularly their page of Shake It exclusives.
I want EVERYTHING on that page! Particularly the Dresden Dolls and Death Cab CDs. And the Jamie Cullum CD. And possibly System of a Down. I'm going to end up spending about a billion dollars there.

Shake It exclusives.
Why do they call them "exclusives"? Some of those are pretty widely available.

I know, right? Perhaps they mean that, of Cincinnati's music stores, only Shake It has them. That's all I can figure.

True but the prices at the site Steph linked to are pretty good. I just ordered a relatively hard to find Eddie Vedder CD, The Molo Sessions (it's just him and a South African choir, what I've heard is beautiful) and an Iron and Wine EP that are at least a few bucks cheaper than what I've seen elsewhere.
I have taken to ordering everything music-wise that I can't download. I don't mean to offend other Chicago-istas but I have yet to find a music store here that matches what I had access to in Lawrence. (Yes, I have been to both Recklesses - eh, OK but not as great as what I'd heard and they are a ways from my apt).
Speaking of ordering - yesterday I ordered the new CD from the buzziest band to ever have buzz: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. I read about them last week on MSNBC's new music column "Independent Study" and then heard no less than three people bring them up over the weekend. You can download three of their songs at the first link. I ordered the CD right after hearing the first song. I hearby pass the buzz along.

From the Shake It site? Right on! (When I saw the Iron and Wine EP, I immediately thought of you, actually.)

Reckless is okay.
Have you been to Dr. Wax? (Are they still around?)
When I was in college I used to go to Vintage Vinyl in Evanston. . . you know when I was on summer break, because I didn't go to NU.
