I had to catch the 5:00 AM shuttle to the airport. Lucky for me, the no-tell motel I was staying in had hot coffee and a free New York Times waiting to start my journey. > > I flipped thru the sections and the blaring headline made my stomach instantly convulse. Right there in the fluffy STYLE section it read "The Graying of the Record Store". The typeset was as big as "Pearl Harbor Bombed". > > The article details how hard the owner of Norman’s Sound and Vision on Cooper Square in Manhattan was having staying open. "I used to make more in a day than I probably make in a week now" quoting the owner. The next paragraph called him the rock and roll version of the "Maytag repairman". > > Norman Isaacs, the owner, went on to admit that "diversification" is not an option for him because of space. Now, I am sure Mr. Norman is a good dude and a great music fan. And I am not here to kick a man when he is down. But come on. I am hear to kick one Alex Williams, the writer of the story for taking the easy way out and being just downright lazy about his investigation. Eric Levin from AIMS/Criminal got a few good punch’s in but his big points were dwarfed by the fate of this little store. I am not honoring Alex by giving you a link to the story because he does not deserve it and you most likely already read it. > > Earlier last week I started getting emails from some of you who fly Southwest. There is an article in this month’s "Spirit" magazine called "HiFi Nation" that BEAUTIFULLY describes what is happening in the nation’s best indie record stores. The tagline reads "Big music retailers may be suffering from the download blues, but the nation’s indie record stores continue to totally rock". Unfortunately, this article does not live anywhere on the internet and I have not gotten Southwest’s permission to send out a PDF. Hopefully I can send it to you later this week. > > This article, written by Joe Nick Patoski, goes into great detail about what indie stores are doing to not only stay alive, but thrive. The photography, mostly at Good Records in Dallas, is amazing. Tons of kids living in these record stores. Being very proactive about in store events, frequent buyer programs, aggressive lifestyle buying, smart DVD sections, and even more in store events are the key. Twist and Shout is building a massive beautiful store in Denver from the ground up. EarX-tacy had the best year in their history last year. Park Avenue doubled his store size and wired it out so that Full Sail Recording Academy could plug into the building and record in stores as class projects. We put those in stores out nationwide. > > You should take the time to check out these two articles about Plan 9 in Richmond, VA and their in store event with the Drive By Truckers last week that raised $8000 for a local charity. That is exactly what I am talking about when I say that aggressive retailers are not giving up. > http://www.styleweekly.com/article.asp?idarticle=12635http://www.richmond.com/printer.cfm?article=4333884 The NYT article ended with a sad picture of Mr. Issacs waiting for his ceiling to fall down on his empty store. Less than 40 miles east, Karl Groeger, Jr and his Looney Tunes staff are on fire. Less than 40 miles west, Rob Roth and his Vintage Vinyl staff are rockin it. I can assure you that neither of these stores are waiting on the ceiling to cave in. I hope someone will forward this to Alex Williams of the New York Times. Maybe he will get off his ass next time and talk to some people who are trying. Quit going for the easy story Alex. You are supposed to be a journalist for God’s sake. No Pulizer for you pal. Pos.
