Heard about this on KUVO (Denver's Jazz station and one of the top 10 jazz stations in the country. Check out their streaming content http://www.kuvo.org )

My son has an Ice Hockey game at 9:00 am up at the SUN Microsystems Arena at Westminster Promenades. I just may have to check this out on the way home.

this expo was great about 8+ years ago but you can still find
some good vinyl there. It comes up here this time yearly.

Thanks for posting this Wayne, just what I needed, a way to spend more money.

Perhaps a road trip is in order tomorrow. Maybe I'll run into you after your son's hockey game.

When I heard the anouncement on the radio, that is exactly what I thought

The EXPO is on Sunday, Mike. Not tomorrow

Doh! Thanks Wayne, apparently my brain didn't agree with my eyes. Not the first or last time for that I'm sure.

This is exactly the reason I don't own a turntable

You don't own a turntable because the "special hopitals" all said you're not allowed to have sharp objects such as needles.

Especially after that unforunate incident with my needle and your eyeball.

So , did you guys score any music at the record show ? Seems it's quiet in Denver - snowed in yet ?

No snow in town yet but the mountains have been getting some.

I picked up 16 records at that show for $100. I puposely limited myself to $100 so I wouldn't break the bank. Most of them were very inexpensive. 14 albums for $50, the other $50 was spent on only 2 records.

I know that Wayne picked up some goodies as well, not sure how many.

I was kept to a short time there by the presence of my son.

I don't think I made it around to visit all the tables. I did pick maybe 8 lps. They had a very good selection and very good prices. It is a good thing I didn't stay any longer as my wallet would have been considerably lighter.

I have mentioned to Ron Welborne, who is in charge of the upcoming Denver Audio Fest, that he should get together with the promoters of the vinyl show and combine them.

I can't think of a more fun audiophile weekend than listening to various rigs and then looking though over 100 vendors worth of vinyl.

Oh yeah, they had CD there too, I saw one table with a whole bunch of MO-Fi gold CDs.

I think that's a good idea, both sides would benefit.

I picked up 6 lps nothing special, years ago there were alot of independent people selling their collection.
For some reason I get alot of bad sounding lps from dealers even though they look good to the naked eye.
