    Q 1 – What’s your favorite local record store?

    Noble Records – Matthews, NC

    Q 2 – When did you start collecting?

    1995 with strictly Nirvana stuff. Then I inherited my fathers collection in 2009, he was gonna toss em.. By 2012 I was collecting newer releases. Underground bands started to revive vinyl around then

    Q 3 – How many are in your collection now?

    200-ish

    Q 4 – What’s your favorite or most prized vinyl record in your collection?

    A signed 12″ Nirvana – Smells Like Teen Spirit (by all 3 members. Kurt Cobain included)

    Q 5 – Most recent record purchase?

    My daughters wanted “Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge” by My Chemical Romance

    Q 6 – Do you prefer black vinyl or colors/variants?

    Colors and variants are my favorite. They look super cool. People argue black sounds better but I can not tell a difference

    Q 7 – What’s your favorite album from a band/artist you’ve seen live?

    Converge – Jane Doe OR Snapcase “Progression Through Unlearning”. I can’t decide? I discovered both bands in the same week and love them equally for different reasons

    Q 8 – What’s your biggest want/grail?

    I know its rare, but not super rare – but the banned version of Guns N’ Roses – Appetite for Destruction. With the not so taseful cover artwork

    Q 9 – Who is the most represented artist/band in your collection?

    The Gaslight Anthem or Lucero.

    Q 10 – What’s your audio setup?

    Technics SL-D33 Fully-Automatic Direct-Drive Turntable, Powered M-Audio Studio monitors and some sort of old mixer my band used as a PA. I also sometimes run it through some of my Marshall guitar speakers
    When I was moving that SL-D33 fell from the top stack of my Jeep. Still works perfectly. They don’t make things like they usto haha.

    When I lugged home my fathers collection in suitcases from Texas I saw this blonde long-haired dude in the ATL airport. Turned out it was Gregg Allman and Jamo. I had “Eat a Peach” on my possession and showed it to them. Gregg said “I have not seen one of those in a very long time”

    “Still we sing with our heroes, 33 rounds per minute” -Brian Fallon (The Gaslight Anthem)
