- Wow, the Rocky Mountain Record Show in Denver was big, tons of records and other types of memorabilia could be found. It was on 3 different floors. I had a specific album that i went in looking for. I also have the distinct pleasure to show you how not to buy records and at record show. There were a lot of crazy high prices but no double also some deals that i was unable to find. Come along for the ride and watch me screw myself over lol.

Now I don’t feel so bad about missing it. Very seldom have I ever found deals on anything non-classical at record shows.
I didn’t know you live in Denver? Do you play in the Denver Orchestra? I went to a lot of the Detroit Symphony shows and plan to do the same in Denver along with the opera. If you’re in Denver I hope we bump into each other. Pricing at the show was crazy, I did not see a ton of classical music but then I definitely did not hit every box, it was just too much for me to absorb
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 Hey Steve! I moved to Colorado Springs a few months back, I play in the Air Force Band over at the Academy, but I'm in Denver a ton. Let's go digging some time, there's a couple good stores here in the springs, but sadly I will be traveling on record store day this year.
I love these videos Steve! It makes me realize just how diverse the VC is. I saw so many albums on a few of the sellers WALL that I’ve put into my purge bin. Makes me smile to know that we all are different in so many ways 🤙🏻
So true, we all hear things differently and a grail for one is purge item for someone else. It was pretty crazy Anthony the prices but people were buying including me
That is a wonderful venue; so bright and open. My goodness, those prices! Steve, please don't beat yourself up; we've all done it. I can't wait until you have your rig set up so you can start spinning again. Have a great weekend. (Denver looks like it's quite beautiful)
I really hate not having a stereo. I have been listening to a lot of downloaded music Mark. Prices were incredibly high but some of the records I never see including the three I grabbed so that was good Interesting show Mark
Wow, looks like a big show. Thanks for showing all the records and prices. Cool stuff
Dana, that show went on forever and if you had a ton of money you could find a lot of grails. So many things caught my interest but the pricing I found was pretty steep. Maybe I’m too cheap lol
Hi Uncle Steve. Good that you were able to get out to that local show and poke around... meet some folks and do some networking. Too bad the prices were high. It's been my experience that shows like this tend to have prices 10-25% higher than most stores. It's the same thing at comic book shows. Some vendors take advantage of the 'buying frenzy.' Thanks for taking us along. Have a good one. Cheers!
Nephew, great point on buying frenzy! That is what it is. The show I went to in February I stayed away from buying any high price items and kept to my list and got some good deals. This time I went grail shopping and paid the price
Gidday Steve. Great footage, looks like a fantastic show. I would probably pay too much and buy too many, but I would enjoy. You got some nice pick-ups. Thanks.
Thanks Ken, I get a little worked up checking prices in Discogs. All three albums are extremely important to me. It was a heck of a show but spendy.
Great tour Steve, that was a huge fair. I tend to go through the cheapie boxes and usually find something to amuse me. I like looking at the prices vendors are asking and just chuckle to myself. Like you said, it’s a free country and no one has to buy. At least you got some records you love. Cheers.
I have become discouraged with record shows but obviously they must be moving inventory to charge that much. I’m glad the show was free in the second day but definitely buyer beware Jack
Superb video Steve. The fair looks great, some of those prices though eek! I was glad you got your Cramps grail and replaced your Marquee Moon and Modern Lovers then... damn pity they aren't the OG's you paid for.
Mike, prices were nuts. There was so many great albums, could have spent $1000’s, but then I do need to eat and have petrol for the vehicle. Interesting experience
Wow! 3 levels!!?? My kind of show! Fun stuff Steve. 😎👍
It was huge Matt and if you spent time digging you may have found a deal. Obviously I did not lol
Wow. Great punk selection! Lots of classic groups, Black Flag, Plasmatics, The Clash, Suicidal Tendencies, Husker Du, Minor Threat . . .
Pistols, NOFX, Ramons. Congratulations on your take homes! Beautiful 📺 album! Never thought I’d congratulate someone on getting the cramps 😂. I told Tim he might run into you up there. Great video.
I reached out to Tim to get together once I get settled in. The punk records were crazy, so much cool stuff but I was trying to stay focused Steve and see how much money I could blow. I was highly successful on that part lol
Hi Steve! Some of the sellers are out of control. I work in purchasing for a living, so I am extremely conscious about pricing at whatever is on offer. At least you got 3 things you truly love and that is priceless at the end of the day! Hope you're loving your new home in Denver. ✌
Next week we finally do the move Mike. Probably won’t get moved in until the end of the month. Pricing is set by the buyer, if we will buy it then price it that way. That was the biggest show I have ever gone to. The albums I got are all time favorite but buyer beware
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 Yes, buyer beware! Good luck on your pending move! I've done the cross country move thing, and it is a big one!
Hey Steve fun vide
I try Trish though I don’t Ave the cool wildlife films like you.
Love the record sale walk around. I think prices just getting a little higher than they should be. But hey that’s the norm lately. I’m glad you found the Cramps album.
Tony, they are jumping up all over but they definitely were quite high here. I was also looking for some expensive stuff. Digging conduct some good deals could have been found
Nice one Steve. And that poster collection, wow 3:27. Sorry you got scammed on that Cramps LP. I saw them at the LA Roxy early 80s. Kid Congo Powers on guitar!
Kid Congo was great in the Cramps. You saw them when they were at the top in my estimate. The show was pretty crazy and it was free entry on Sunday. You could have spent hours there and spent 1000s in it David
Wow. Those prices! The Modern Lovers-that's one I would love. I do have a 90s/00s CD reissue, but it should be on vinyl. I have an original copy of the live album, and it remains one of my favourite live records of all time. Nice, if expensive , haul, Steve
Yeah, those were three albums I really love, top 20 albums of all time for me, all three of them. Sadly I thought I was getting OGs, something that really makes me giddy Andy. Who doesn’t love a giddy 65 year old!
Hi Steve, Great to see so many of the younger generation present at that show. Personally i tend to stay away from these shows as you rarely find any 'deals' at them, and i tend to get drawn in to buying things i maybe shouldn't (ahem!) , although you shouldn't expect to be fleeced at them. Hopefully these kids won't be put off . Hope you are settling in ok in your new abode. Best wishes, Cliff.
Hi Cliff, I’m back in MI, the moving truck comes Wednesday. My wife will now be joining me in Denver along with Kat. I also rarely go to shows and this one did leave a bad taste in my mouth. Buyer beware
Steve, some of these prices I saw deserved to be on the "holy moly wall" as Noble Records (Dillon) would say. I saw some nice Alex Chilton (Big Star) albums as you were flipping through. The big problem I see with you getting those three (3) albums that you wanted is that you are still going to be wanting originals the next time that you see them! I was wondering if you would see Tim (University of Vinyl) there, and you settled that. Thanks, Chris
Chris, you are absolutely right, I really would like to have an OG on them. All three albums are easy top 20 albums of all time. I need to learn to be satisfied with what I have
Hi Steve, I agree with you, pricing here in Australia has gone nuts too. I go to record fairs but only buy what I really need. I don't need too many records anymore, have most of what I want. enjoyed your footage. Ffree entry, that is good.
I do love free Peter, especially if I’m going to spend too much! More people are moving to CD or to streaming. If you want to enjoy the music it is the cheapest way
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 Hi Steve, I agree with you that CDs and streaming are cheaper but while I can still afford it and don't have a wife that complains about it (Miss Rotty does not complain about buying records as long as she gets her favorite food)i will stick to buying vinyl. ..... Enjoy the music......
Wow, sounds dangerous out there my friend! Yeah, getting too excited when finding a record can go wrong. First thing to look for, when digging for an original, is to look for some wear on that cover, ring wear, or indent, or edge wear. But with that Television and Modern Lovers albums, like you said you needed to look at the run-out-grooves.
So true Michael. The Cramps did appear as I was leaving and the adrenaline took over. The vendor must have been very excited when I left lol
Wow, you started with two records that I need to acquire. I should get the third one too. Prices are crazy everywhere, it seems. I say "I paid too much" after every record show.
I was shocked to see all three and the first two were early pressings Sometimes the excitement takes over Brian
Already finding your footing in a new world. That Modern Lovers album is a gem; at one time it was probably my favorite. Paid to much? Maybe but who cares. You'll get a lot of enjoyment from it. Same with the Cramps. But I understand how you feel. I bought a grey-market copy of Radio Birdman's second album. I was so excited to see it at a record show that I just reacted... without really looking. It wasn't until I got home that I realized my mistake. Now, the real kicker is that I sold that bootleg off because I was determined to get and original. And... now I wish I had the bootleg. lol. Sometimes we can't win! lol. Be well, Steve. Cheers! Shawn
Great story Shawn, point well put, sometimes we just react due to the excitement of finding seeing some thing we have been searching for. That is the case with all three of these especially The Cramps album. At least I have a copy now. I still have my OG vinyl, it now has a cover. I don’t do many shows, prices can be crazy as my flips showed. Still, it was a great crowd of excited shoppers!
Bummer about those Mile High prices! Looked like a big space. Don’t feel too bad about potential overpays, happens to all of us. I got bit not too long ago on a sealed album at a show advertised as a 1st press…and it wasn’t…and it was warped on opening. Aaaaaarrrrggghhh 😂
Sealed albums, the great crap shoot. I know a guy who sold his sealed record collection recently. A vendor from TN offered him $15K, the guy got $34K for it, he knew what he had. It turns out some of the sealed albums this guy bought had been played. The people that bought it, the own a r3cord store had a few complaints, so they checked some out and did videos on them. Most were okay but some had been recently sealed. I don’t think the guy I know did it but he probably got taken and didn’t even know it Chance
Looks like a silkscreen edition of the debut album by Toots & the Maytals on the wall at 2:02, I have never seen one of those in person. Thought it looked small from the opening shots but actually a pretty big show, and nicely spread out. Our record fairs here tend to be compressed into one big room and so they get claustrophobic with the amount of people crammed in all trying to browse the tables. See what you mean by the prices though, $15 for the Cars...that's the pitfall of shows, there's gobs and gobs of records, lots that you don't normally see and so the adrenaline gets going, it happens that you end up overpaying once in a while. Looks like a fun day anyway, cheers
Great point on the adrenaline rush. I definitely had that with the Cramps. It was very well spread out but packed with people I saw a lot of common items for over $15, but if people will buy it then why not. I didn’t find the reggae section Doug
I have sold at shows for 10 years or so, there's a wild range of pricing and condition, def had people stop by my booth and pull a record and tell me they paid double from another vendor and my copy for sale is cleaner. I feel like i tend to find some deals at shows, but you also got to dig deep, overall they are a lot of fun.
It is a crap shoot. I went to a show in the Detroit area and I found some great deals. I was looking for a grail and got to excited about finding it lol. I was a sellers dream Travis!
Hi Steve! Yeah, the last few record shows that I've been to here in Michigan have also seemed to be on the upward swing as far as prices go. I don't know if it's a case of the venues charging the vendors more to rent the space, or if it's just opportunistic sellers, or something else entirely. Whatever the root cause, I've decided to take a break from shows for a bit and stick to the shops. Despite the prices, I think you got a couple of pretty good additions! Cheers!
Dave, I think buyers are pushing the limits on the more in demand albums, how much can you get? But even common albums were being priced at $15 which was insane. If someone is willing to pay the price then why not. I dot go to many shows, prefer a store where I can look the items over in more detail It’s a different world out there Dave
I would have been paralyzed by sensory overload at that show. At the SF show last weekend I had to leave after less than an hour and a half because I was too dizzy and I still hadn’t dug half the bins. I wish I had taken a break and gone back for another crack at it.
Michael, I get what you mean. I don’t stay a long time. I walk the whole show and then pick where I will go. I don’t like fighting to get into a box and bumping into everyone. I don’t mind crowds but they waste my time as I have to wait. I no doubt miss out on some stuff but no doubt saved some money! Well, except this time
HI Steve. I don't have a phone from which i could check the discogs. I've noticed it could be a good thing. On my last record show i bought a single thinking "this is what i've bought" then came home and took a closer look and thought "what have i bought?" It didn't ask for much to see that it wasn't what i thought it was. Just a bit more than cursory glance on the sleeve.
Now there are record shows coming up on the next three consecutive weekends. I sincerely hope i won't make it to all of them.
On the other hand, i just bought record boxes and they're not all full now. And we can't have that with good conscience, can we?
Pasi
lol Pasi, empty record boxes, you just can’t have that at all. I’m not a huge fan of record shows as I find the pricing high but we as consumers set those prices. At least the three albums I got I really like so I can’t complain to much
Hello, those high prices destroy little of the fun
Ishall try to find the Cramps album, if you like that group you
also would like Gun Club I think
Look forward to record store day soon......
Hansel, you are right on the Gun Club. I do have their first couple of albums, great stuff. Cramps is had to find which is why I got sooooo excited when I saw that album. I should have slowed down. I wish you happy hunting for RSD
Hey Steve
Man that was a huge show! I had better luck in Ann Arbor maybe the Midwest prices are better. Most of the records I bought were about the discogs median one was worth quite a bit more than I paid
Take care Brian ☮️
Brian, it is definitely cheaper in the Midwest They were really trying to get premium price and a few knuckleheads like me paid it sadly. Still it was interesting to see and take part in
We have all paid too much at one time or another. One example for me was the yellow vinyl version of Bad Music For People. When I got home I found out it was a bootleg.
Yeah it does happen Richie, I just got so excited about finally finding that Cramps album I didn’t even check it over. It has been on the top of my list. I was told it sounds good, I will see when I get a stereo again
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 Do you have the Ohio Demos?
At pricey record shows it helps to go with a budget. I'll usually stop by an ATM before and get cash. Then I force myself to only spend what I got in cash. But yeah it's hard to turn down a record that you really want and been looking for.
I generally go with a budget and then blow it. Should leave the cards at home. I was on the hunt for records I knew would be pricey but wow Will. If people will pay the price why not charge it
The buyer's remorse is palpable and I've been there (not so much anymore...I now keep it in check), but you'll forget about it quickly and just enjoy the records for what they are. Just don't forget so much that you don't learn from it! I picked up the Rhino High Fidelity version of that Television album and I absolutely LOVE it; it's awesome. I do not any dog in the race (as with the Pink Floyd - Animals 2018 Remix which I also love unabashedly) about "the way the artist intended etc". I go with the way my ears and brain take it in and enjoy it. I also recently picked up Grateful Dead - American Beauty even though I already had a solid copy because these are so impressive; like Tone Poets for rock records. I can't recommend them enough. Nice to see that Jeff Tweedy had his own booth at 2:32. 😆Pricey city I'm sure but it looks beautiful. I would love to visit one day. Enjoy your time there. Cool as well that you ran into Tim from University of Vinyl! 14:33 Cheers!
EDIT: to add "don't*
I have heard great things about those Rhino releases, I need to pick up some of them. Too often the focus is on OG, it does bring a sense of excitement but as you said it is about what your ears hear. Great points
You also should have bought that Buff Medways album I saw you browse past. I really need to record shop with you in order to keep you on the proper garage rock path of life. LOL -JT
lol JT. Somehow I think shopping with you could get expensive for me ! I always loved going to RPM with you as that brain of your is so packed with musical trivia. You are a fountain of musical knowledge my friend
I am thinking should I go to record show, but am ready to buy anything. And driving there isn't free eather!
I saw also one Cramps album but I wasn't sure would I like it or not, because I haven't listened them so much. So what would be best way to start with the band...
mr. Finglish (Bäd English Recs)
Mr Finglish, when it comes to the Cramps I like their music from 1980-1985 the best. Sadly that also goes for the most money. They are putting out all kinds of live albums or radio shows from the band. Buyer beware. Some of the found quality is excellent and then some is not. This also have a lot of 12 singles and EPs that are cheaper My favorite and I rank it in my top 5 albums of all time is Songs The Lord Taught Us from 1980. That album is amazing
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 I opened now "Songs The Lord Taught Us" to Spotify, so I remember listen it.
Bummer about the records not being OGs. It's pretty amazing that something that sold as poorly as the Modern Lovers' first album would have a second pressing. The record industry continues to baffle. And - despite getting drilled a minor new one, at least you have the records you wanted in some version. And you can always sell those, when you find the OGs you seek, to lower the price of the new acquisitions. Perhaps I should start a Dear Abbie column for the VC - it could probably used one.
Lmao , a Dear Darrell column haha. Oh lord that would be hilarious. My wife doesn’t seem to respect me since I started buying CDs. What should I do? Dear Darrell, I cleaned my record with wood glue and now my needle is stuck in the groove. Can this be fixed? I think you may have just found the missing piece in the VC, an advice columnist! Who better than you lol .
Steve, cool you went to record show. Boo on the high prices, boo on the con artists. I’m slowly going back to CDs more and more. Records are out of their tree. The prices won’t go down until we stop buying. I made a commitment for some RSD releases, after that I’ll be done for awhile
Steve, I have heard a lot of others going back to CDs. It is the cheapest way to enjoy music and is the sound really that much different? Omaha I govern was there and she told me one vendor didn’t even price his records. You had to ask and then he would give a stupid high price. Pretty insane Zonkman
One dealer had a Milford Graves LP I’ve been looking seven years for.
Isn’t that something Dave. M flip video shows an album you have been searching for. No doubt they had it priced at stupid high prices
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147It was on the wall and probably was SloLow out of New Mexico.
Professor, welcome to Sticker Shock city! I remember when I moved to the Boston area from Central Ohio back in '93 - it was CRAZY! And still is. What we pay for our apartment every month in metro Boston could get us THREE in Ohio . And music is the same. Sorry you overpaid, but it happens, it always does. But will you enjoy them? If you can enjoy the music and not think of the price, then you are all set. Somehow, I think that will be the most important factor. Take care!
100% right about enjoying the music TC, I just need to slow down and look things over better. Denver is sticker shock for sure. Not sure I could afford our current hours in Denver which is sad. Luckily my grandson makes up for every thing !
Hey Steve! 3 stories, that is quite the show! Good and bad in this video, but if you want to listen to any of those albums today, they are within your arms reach. I know I have over paid many times, but that is the kind of record shopper I am. I don't like overpaying for other things in life, but music gets a pass. I'm guessing it is because my number 1 priority is having the music in my possession. The exact pressing has never mattered to me, so I do zero research. Cheers!
Great point Steve, it is about the music first. All three albums are extremely important to me and rank high on my all time favorite list. Still I hate paying to much but that is my fault. Cool show though and it was free on Sunday Quite the selection
Hey Steve at lease you got some records you love , but from some of the prices you were showing OMG . I would to be a newbie shoping for viynl now dats. it has become a rich man game? or is it just that show you were at ?
I have been to a couple shows this year. More rare items are going at premium prices but they are way above the Discogs prices which is disappointing. In Detroit I was looking for more common items and I found some decent prices but that takes some time
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 I agree with you there about rare items would cost more.
Rocky Mountain Record Show seems to be around a lot. Was The University of Vinyl around? How is you Grand Baby doing Steve? Oh Yeah Awesome Pick ups Steve! I'm Happy for You Buddy!!!
Tim attended the show on Saturday Robbie. I hope to meet up with him sometime soon. Aiden is the apple of my eye. We are moving this coming week finally, house is sold, time to leave and pay more for vinyl lol
Hey Steve! Had no idea you went to this show, too. We made the trip as well, but it ended up being the most disappointing show I've ever been to. I feel strange saying that, but it just wasn't my day apparently...even with 3 floors of records! I only walked out with one record. The prices were INSANE. Something has happened between last year and this year with regard to pricing. I had such good luck at this show last August, but not this time. Did you stop at the vendor on the 2nd level who had amazing 80s and post-punk stuff but had nothing priced? I pulled 4 or 5 records to ask how much they were, and he wanted $150-$200 each. I checked them on Discogs later and they should have been around $50-$75 each. SCAM! Hey, you got some essential titles, though! Oh, bummer on the unofficial Cramps. The hunt continues! Cheers!
I am moving to Denver to be by my grandson. We just sold our house in Midland, took 2 days Next week I head home and the moving company will load up our stuff and to Denver we go. Going to rent a couple of years until I know the market. My son bought a business for me to run a couple of years for him so I can afford living here. We were talking about retiring to either Lincoln or Omaha ( a lot cheaper) but seeing my grandson, and soon to be granddaughter is more important. The prices were stupid at that show. A vendor not pricing anything to me is a crook. Sure was busy though. If you two head out this way again let me know. Great to hear from you Hanna
Hi Steve - I'm looking for an RCA Low by Bowie & saw one ! I would of scored 🏒 !
David, I can’t believe you don’t have that! Yes you would have scored and probably paid too much but it’s about the joy the album will bring you..right…at least I think so lol
I think my innate cheapness might have saved me in this instance. However I have been FOMO'd into a bunch of pre-orders with the distinct possibility I might wind up disappointed. Sorry you had a bad experience. Hopefully you'll score some unexpected bargain sometime soon.
Joe, I need to be cheaper lol. I pull the trigger too easily with the thought I may never see it again. Have backed way off on a lot of the FOMO type albums and instead keep looking for the items that really mean something to me or are a new group. I really backed off jazz. I like jazz but found , except for Miles, I don’t play it much.
Orig Cramps albums not easy to find here in Canada !
Same in the US. This was the last one I really wanted, I have a few more I’m still looking for but Bad Music was on the top of the list of albums I wanted back again
First of all Mike can I just say thank you for the top shelf generic AI sounding tunes accompanying the vision of you sifting through over the top priced records. Those Nick Cave records looked totally legit Ha!! You got 3 absolutely classic records, but yeah not great to pay too much. I guess your new house just got a bit smaller so you could get those records. Now I have reading goggles, I'm bringing to every record show or store because they give those glasses discounts. I am jealous though. I've never got a kiss for buying records. Where do I go to get that? Where's Furry Mike going to rest his weary bones now? No soft porn but quite the analogy ha, ha! Great stuff Mike. Cheers...Mike
Glasses really open up doors for you Mike. When you’re shopping just tell them you want the eyeglass discount. It’s a pretty big discount. Furry Mike was at home packing his suitcase We are not very excited to have him on a couple day journey. We got some drugs for him. Maybe he will share them and we will all be falling asleep on the journey to Colorado. It was a crazy record show Mike, crazy prices
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 That sounds like a road trip worthy of Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas 😂
I know a guy here in Omaha who was going to sell at that show. I went to the Omaha show on Sunday. It was packed. I walked out of there with 0 purchases. I see no need to overpay for vinyl when I can just stream it. I own enough music already. If I can't get it really cheap I pass.
You know, I get what you are saying and I don’t fault you. I was just thinking about doing a video on more people going to CDs or to streaming. I load a lot of music into my phone as I feel no need to buy the whole album anymore. I just play it through my Sonos, sounds good to me. It was cool men’s basketball at least went to the tournament this year!
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 maybe we can get to a bowl this year. I haven't bought much lately. I really want to but just haven't found many deals.
I'm waiting for you to be making a video at your son's business and suddenly he appears in the background, "Dad! Get back to work!' - JT
lol JT. When he was trying to talk me into doing this he kept saying that there is not a lot to do and you could sit in the office and make videos all day lol. I think he lied to me JT
It's the thrill of the chase. And the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.
Yeah, I definitely had an ABC sports moment with the thrill of the score and then the agony of finding I could have gotten it cheaper on discogs lol
The Modern Lovers & Television situation I could live with. Even early represses of those records go for the equivalent of $50.00-$80.00 dollars here. The Cramps would have left me fuming. I have The Comp ‘Off The Bone’ which I think has pretty much the same track list...also getting very expensive...I got my copy for £10.00...I realise this isn’t helping Steve! 😂
Hahaha, thanks Harris, I feel so much better now. I let adrenaline get a hold of me. I can not believe I didn’t check the vinyl. I may have tried to buy it still but I would have tried to talk them down. Prices were kind of nuts. I did see some tables with 12 inch singles use waiting for someone like you to pan for the gold that lay within those boxes!
1st Modern Lovers- will have "Home of the Hits" on the label.
Marquee Moon- seek out a red label German pressing. Wow.
Cramps- Drastic Plastic pressing is very nice.
Or ....take Centrum silver or Geritol daily hahaha.
Centrum Silver , good call Fester! I will check the labels, great info. I learn a lot in the comments from people like you. It is always appreciated, now where do it put my Geritol?
I think everyone is spending too much at vinyl shows these days. I'm glad I stopped record collecting. However, I replaced it with a hobby 100X more expensive, luxury sport boat ownership. I've received $6K in invoices in the past 3 weeks (2K winterization, 2K dockage for 2024 season, 2K for 2024 insurance) and the boat isn't even in the water yet!
Wow Jeff, how often did you get out in your boat last year? If it is your passion why not though an expensive sports car may have been the way to go lol.
Vengeance is the Cramps's own label.
Okay, I need to look that album over again.
Hello Steve; Record shopping at the show. When looking thru crates, your not looking, thru crates. Do not be a poker face, or Horshack shopper owe!, owe!, owe!. Common mistakes. At a show project an adversarial nature. Always remember the '' Con Is On'', if you don't pay attention. Some of the prices are as high as the 🏔 Rockies. Some good but expensive pick ups. Take care,🤷♀Tina & 🤷♂Pat!~
Good point, con is on and never show excitement when finding something I blew that. At least I really wanted them and they were in great shape. Oh well
Don't feel guilty my friend. If it sounds good the origins are overrated. Happy listening 🎶😌
All three albums are top 20 albums of all time Greg.
That sucks Steve. Won’t happen next time.
Well Andre, I tend to let the adrenaline rush take over and get too excited without slowing down and really looking things over Lessons learned my friend. Back in MI. Moving truck comes Wednesday
I am consistently surprised at the type of people drawn to angry complaining musical statements. I see the cramps as not having a lot in common with this guy, the guy obviously knows the situation better than myself.
Richard, the power of music. For many it gives them a platform to say what is in their mind.
Wow Steve! And wow, wonder what that whale cost (Eddie Vedder, Into the Wild). Amazing posters!
Woa, 3 stories!?! Huuge. Like my Denver dream destination, GABF (Great American Beer Fest in Denver). Not going to happen, but still eh?
Didn’t even get kissed?!? 😄
Yeah, quite the prices there, woa…
Thank you for letting us come with Steve 😊
And congratulations! For the find.
What, a big fine beer fest, that sounds fun Morten. The show was large, basically overwhelming but so many interesting albums
@@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147 I think they usually do it in October each year.
So, Hanna was there. She posted on IG that she was disappointed in that show. Sorry you overpaid for those albums. Hope everything else is going well, Steve! Cheers ✌🏻
Yeah Hanna commented on this. She also felt the prices were too high. Head home this weekend Jon as the movers arrived Tuesday. We had 3 offers on the house in two days so that went well
Of course, you have to do your homework, but.... Sellers with bootlegs are just so annoying...
Jacob, I just let andrenaline take over and didn’t slow down but the prices were pretty crazy, much higher than Michigan
Everything is a mile high in Denver.
Amen to that, still getting over all the sticker shock
Record buyers and their money are soon parted.
Instead of a fool and his money insert record buyers lol.
You got bamboozled. You got hoodwinked. U got burned.
Boy did I ever, never let adrenaline take over. Oh well, not worth crying over spilled milk
