Ok vinyl fans, its that time again.

I got the following email reminder:

Hey Music Lover,

Since you've come out to one of our shows in the past and signed up for our mailing list, we though we should send out the information about our next show coming up next weekend.


The details are:

SUNDAY NOVEMBER 8th
THE ESTONIAN HOUSE
958 BROADVIEW AVE
Just North Of the Danforth
11am-4pm
$5.00

2 big rooms full of Vinyl, Cds, Posters, Autographs, Concert Memorabilia, and hey.....more Vinyl.

I'll also be running a FREE appraisal service for anyone who wants to bring something down that they might be interested in selling. If you got it, and you don't want it anymore, bring it on down. You never know what you might have.

Also, If you are on Facebook, look us up there and join our group to receive news and updates about the show. We are listed under THE TORONTO DOWNTOWN RECORD SHOW.


Looking forward to seeing you all there.

I went in the spring with my 11 year old son and a friend from work. My son got on expensive new LP, and I got a dozen used. Spent all of my money and had a blast.

Yeah, i guess when you live way out in the boonies, it could be a challenge..it's a 15 minute walk for me :)
The thing about this show - if you're either looking for Classical, or new vinyl, don't bother - Classical is totally unrepresented, and new vinyl prices at the show are typical brick 'n mortar prices...if you're into classic rock, this is a good show to attend.

Good show. I got 6 mint used LPs - 2 Pink Floyd, 1 Beatles (Rubber Soul), 1 Mahavishnu Orchestra with John McLaughlin, 2 by Italian prog band PFM. My son bought new LPs by Coldplay and Green Day. Hope some others made it out and made out well.

I went over there too late (2:00-ish), I guess, and the Jazz vinyl selections are just so-so. Did pick up a mint audiophile pressing re-issue 200g Living Stereo, though.

I made it out to the show....mainly looking for CD's though!!! I got 8 for $15 from a vendor near the end of a day and four were sealed brand new....good titles.

Show looked great if you were going for vinyl and had a title or two in mind.

D'oh! Totally forgot about this! I even had it marked on the calendar, but was all wrapped up in a house reno., and gapped out. Next time, it goes in my BB. When is the next one, BTW?
