At the Drive-In - Relationship of Command (1st Pressing) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @atdimusic ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Look, I’ll be honest with you and say that I have always had some mixed emotions about Record Store Day, not because I haven’t had a good time and snagged some seriously awesome records, but because I HATE being anxious and stressed, I hate waiting in line for anything, I really don’t like that the rush for creating all the goodies for the day means that the few still operating record plants in the world are working at capacity for big names instead of the little guys. Each year I say I won’t get worked up about it and I’ll just show up after the crowds die down to support my local stores and see what’s left and every year I wake up anxious, drink too much coffee, get in line like I say I won’t, and blow a huge wad on records I didn’t realize I needed. It’s a cycle I know I’m stuck in, and I’m only OK with it because I’ve also come to know some amazing record store employees and owners over the years and I know it’s such a huge day for them. It’s also an exciting day where so many people come together to share in the love for the medium and that’s why we’re all here, right?! I’m playing one of my beloved ATDI records tonight because it makes me think of a RSD a few years back where I stood in line at @vinaledge hours before they opened just to make sure I could score a copy of the Relationship of Command reissue because I didn’t have a copy of it yet. I met some cool folks that morning, I went home with some beloved records I still hold dear, and I got to spend the morning with my favorite folks at Vinal Edge in Houston reveling in the holiday of RSD. Whether you love or hate it, you’ve gotta admit it’s become a real big thing in the community. Tonight I’ll act real cool but tomorrow morning I’ll be in line panicked about whether I’ll score a copy of @robynkonichiwa - Body Talk, I’m sure. What are you planning to snag? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #atdi #atthedrivein #jimward #marsvolta #sparta #elpaso #posthardcore #rsd #vinylexams #vinyl #vinyljunkie #onmyturntable #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinyligclub #vinyllovers #vinylclub #vinylrecords #vinylcollectionpost #lp #records #nowplaying #rsd19 (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwLqSk-g9Km/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=128grsz5m6ezo

So I had to get a root canal the other night and afterwards, I wanted 20 minutes to chill out and shake off the stress before going back home. Some folks might hit a bar, but for me, a record store is my Cheers. So I rooted around a shop near the dentist and they were playing this dissonant avant-garde Metal Jazz with vocals—it was sort of prog rock for people with short attention spans. And it was good—reminded me of some other bands. In the meantime, I found this German EP of early Duran Duran remixes that in fact weren’t remixes at all; they were extended versions played live in the studio—Simon comes in on the verse in “Planet Earth” off by an entire line at one point, but I digress. So I brought it to the counter and as I paid, I asked the counter guy through my half-numb mouth, “What are we listening to?” Though young, the guy had already mastered the traditional record store clerk arrogant sneer, so he stroked his lengthy beard, and sized me up. Because I was a middle-aged guy buying a Duran Duran record. I guess he took “What are we listening to” to mean “What is this shit.” He loftily said, “Yeah, you wouldn’t have heard of them,” adding slowly like I was three years old, “It’s called The Mars Volta.” To which I responded, “Oh, Omar Rodríguez-López’s band after At The Drive-In” And he was dumbfounded—the old guy could throw down!—so I went on. “It’s pretty good; better than Sparta [the other band that came from ATDI]. It reminded me of Trioscapes, but of course they’re just instrumental, no vocals, so I knew it couldn’t be them.” “Trioscapes?” he said. “Yeah, the spin-off of Between The Buried and Me.” After that, his mouth was agog, just hanging open in the wind, so I picked up my bag and said, “Hey, thanks for the Duran Duran record” and split.
