WFMU: A Bunch of Vinyl Fetishists! [record fair this wkend]
Go figure: people who love free digital music also love buying records. Vinyl, CDs, cassettes... there is an aura to these sound-carrying that doesn't always get across in a .ZIP.
WFMU is coming out as a bunch of vinyl-fetishists this week. We're in the midst of "Singles Going Steady," where DJs celebrate those 'lil records w/ the big holes by spinning 7-inches for the entire week. And it's all leading up to the WFMU Record Fair this weekend (October 22nd - 24th) at the Metropolitan Pavilion in Manhattan.

If you can't make it in-person on such short notice, you can tune in to live broadcasts from the fair (including live music!) -- details at wfmu.org
And/or relive the past through 2008's most memorable performances by Monotonix and DMBQ.
See you at the Fair!
