Hi,
We had our community radio music garage sale in the weekend - people
donate old albums and CDs and we sell them cheap - and at the end we
auction the rest off by the box - 5th year in a row and we still fill a
small hall with music - pretty amazing for a city of 120,000 people in
the middle of the Canadian prairies. I was working and not bothering to
sift though the racks myself until I got to see what some people were
walking out with for $1 and album - so I took a quick run through and
picked up 2 Shame Idols, Grays, Brad Jones, Kennedys, Gravel Pit, Uncut
Beatles Tribute, Harvey Danger and a couple others for $22 Canadian!
Less that what I paid for The Grays on E-Bay the first time. Lots of
fun ('cept for hauling 5000+ albums), and our most effective fund-raiser
every year. The best part is watching the sweaty hyper-ventilating
collectors guarding their piles of 200 albums.
