Anyone going to Austin this weekend for ARC?

[Dave Baldwin]

Will be there Fri. and Sat. mostly as a buyer. Anyone else making the trip?

Wow. I've heard airline travel is a nightmare now, but I'm surprised by the
lack of interest. It's probably the #1 or #2 U.S. show now for garage 45s.

When you have nearly everything you want there's no desire to travel to record shows anymore
Plus prices are beyond absurd!

Well if wasn't 5,836 km away maybe I would!

It's my pretty much my only excuse for going to Austin twice a year now (and I only live three hours away
down Route 183)...lol

It's on my bucket list. But 2 kids in daycare pretty much ruins any chance of going for me. One day!!

I had a table at WFMU last November and there was very little interest in 45s, except for the cheapest stuff.

If anyone wants to buy or sell garage via good olde mail order, contact me!

I've been here all week. The "Hotel" scene was missing a few key figures but still quite a bit to look through for those who did stop in.

The show floor is pretty much normal as far as the number of dealers although the very back row is a little less populated. Shopping crowd has been excellent and sales are good from everyone I've asked.

I have done well buying this time, even though I had pledged to remain more frugal than I have in the past.

I did manage to score a long time want yesterday just as it was being put out!
