    Thanks for the shoutout, Chance! It was great meeting you as well!! You’re the first VC member I’ve met in person. I’m sure I’ll run into you again in March! And congrats on the one year anniversary of the podcast! Take care.

    I loved hearing about your adventures in Chicago. At some point, I need to check out those Chicago records stores. The record show looked very intense and crowded but I'm so glad you found such a cool grail there. ♥️ It's great that you were able to splurge on something you really wanted. Take care.

Nice snag on the Melvins and Nirvana as well. Hope your son found some nice stuff for his collection as well. Take care, Billy-

Rock Records was a great store down town "by the Picasso" I used to go there a lot from 1986 till Crows Nest chain bought it and destroyed it it closed in late 2000s 07-08ish I think.

I’m at that same point upgrading records in pristine condition . Love the hip hop you found DMX with the hype and that Lil Kim . Earlier last year I found a sealed 50 Cent Get Rich and die trying . I hope you come back for the next one I’ll go early bird to meet you . The signal records is in Logan Square neighborhood I grew there I moved from there in 2005 .Take care Chance keep on diggin’ brother.

      @@anthonyburke223 Signal in Wicker Park is the best one. the other location is in Logan Square. They do have a train/metro system, but can be a lot of work to get your bearings, so (depending on where you are staying), rideshare (Uber, etc) is probably the way to go. but like I said, you can hit 4 solid shops in the Wicker Park neighborhood (by foot) alone.
