Re:

Wasn't aware of it but am now

I'm afraid all our local record shops disappeared a loooooooong time ago

But I shall celebrate by treating the kids to a marathon cd session. I think we'll start off with some Saturday Night Fever...

Re:

Really? Well there are still plenty of amazing gold mines out there. A few of my fav's include:

JIMS - Reading: http://justimaginationmemorabilia.blogspot.co.uk/
Alan's records - East Finchley: http://www.alansrecords.com/page2.html
Wanted Music - Beckenham: http://www.vinylhunt.com/stores/704
In Living Stereo - New York: http://inlivingstereo.com/
Piccadilly Record - Manchester: http://www.piccadillyrecords.com/counter/index.php
Rough Trade (East) - Brick Lane, London: http://www.roughtrade.com/

You'd be surprised how many are left if you do a little digging ;-)

Re: Record store day 19/04/14

Spent my first student loan on some 1210's. They were lovely. Had to sell them by the end of the first term as I was terminally skint, but it was a pleasure owning them.

Re:

I've had mine just over a year now and they've been an absolute pleasure to use. They really are as good as the hype: the Chris King of the DJ world. Totally reliable, look great and are built to last forever.

Before I had a pair of pretty basic belt drive things which were fine for messing on but hopeless in every other way.

There's a petition going around at the moment to get Panasonic to re-start production. Sadly I think it's a non-starter :-(

Re:

I just did a search on the website... I really hadn't realised how many stored I have in my area.

We have a great little independent shop in Weston-s-Mare, but Raves from the Graves in Frome has been my local for years.

Re: Record store day 19/04/14

We have Spillers records in Cardiff. Love it in there.

I'm on my 4th set. I've bought and had to sell various pairs over the years, but have a nice set of MK3's now.
I had some brand new 1200 MK5's a few years ago, then my flat flooded and I needed the funds for the repairs :roll:
I tried CDJ's last year and hated them.
Do you only use vinyl? I use a mix of vinyl and serato and find it covers all bases

Re:

Only vinyl. Anything else is a bit meh but I appreciate why folks prefer other formats. If you're curious my soundcloud stuff is in the link in my signiture:

Re:

It took me years to be pursuaded to dry a move to the dark side
I started djing weddings etc a few years back and that was the driver behind trying serato really.
There's a hell of a lot less to carry, plus it's easier to deal with requests.
I still use my 1210's with it though, just with the time-coded vinyl
