WFMU Record Fair

[Toddophonic]

I'll be selling this Friday-Sunday 5/1-5/3 at The WFMU Record Fair over at The Brooklyn Expo Center. A good time is usually had by all and I definitely won't be the only unsavory character selling garage 45's. A few members of this list and others should be joining me...I'll have plenty of other stuff as well. I'll also be doing my radio show live from The Fair on Saturday between 3-6 p.m. with plenty of special guests.

I will also be there, helping my dealer pals, Friday and Saturday only. Being busy working on Beyond TeenBeat Mayhem over the past year and half has kept me from going out record hunting and scavenging....Still, I've stockpiled a nice pile of various 45rpms garage , soul, girl group and other kinds of sounds. From cheap to pricey. I will have some copies of TeenBeat Mayhem for sale at a rock bottom price (never sold them this low).
Stop by and see us, We are at tables D21 and D22. My pals will have boxes and boxes of more collectible 45s for you to paw thru.

I'll be set up all weekend at B15. I'll have plenty of 45s, including a smattering of garage and a little bigger smattering of psych (including a few heavies); mostly punk and assorted 60s though (a lot of cool ones). I'll also have a couple of boxes of underground comics and books, including some psychedelic/Timothy Leary related rarities.

I won't be there for the first time in years for several reasons, such as having to coach little league on Saturday morning.

I'll miss seeing my friends at WFMU, but I'm liking these shows in upstate NY and in CT I've been doing lately - no traffic or parking hassles, cheap table costs, and sales are just as good.

I finally get to go! But only for the last few hours on Sunday. Flying into NYC that afternoon and heading straight to the fair.

As an exercise in self mortification: Would the attendants relate some of the more memorable deals that have been closed, be it openly or in shady back rooms?

Well, there was one particularly BOSS transaction that I witnessed. It appears to have gone well, with both parties involved likely to find their bad selves reasonably pleased...

Aside from that an Elevators EP changed hands for the usual amount a MINT- copy might command. A couple of Chocolate Superz found a new home. A M- reworking of Revenge on Fontana was whipped down into the medium high triple digits by a particularly skilled negotiator; he Kept Moving his offer incrementally lower & then marginally higher till the seller finally threw his hands in the air & caved. More than a few prime 60's Euro EP's were on offer earlier in the show, though they were nowhere to be seen by Saturday afternoon.

And a certain non WFMU flip book + trimmings deal transpired off premise to what I presume will be a delighted reaction from the fortunate procurer.

And somehow despite being there the entire time, I missed all of this! At least I enjoyed stellar sales at my table.

Perhaps not all, Agent 008.
