I'm gonna have to start working up some, myself.
I will have to start planning now. Will give me something to do on the plane. Won't be home until late on the 2nd so already 2 days in the hole. Psyched though.
Just did my first Instagram!! I feel like I'm finally caught up with the year 2010!! :roll:

Straight vintage.
Out-hipstering the hipsters.
I'm gonna start shooting mine with a Brownie.

I am all about the retro over here.
I used the wife's phone today (better camera) and MOAR hashtags!!! I think I'm getting the hang of this now... :mrgreen:
Because I'm good with calendars, you'll notice that the "Sunday" and "Monday" themes are on Monday and Tuesday, respectively.
Make sure you're paying attention.
Will try to hop on tomorrow to catch up.

I was going to question that but that I lost interest and decided there's a good reason. Or a reason.
today's pick has been tricky, finally nailed it. will post later on.
Too slammed with Mex packing and work shit to get anything up today. And then Mex tomorrow through Monday. Will try to catch up next week as I can.

I guess we can forgive ya...
ya bastard. :wink:
Had a tough time with "In The Grave" ... after looking at a lot of album art, thinking about song titles, then thinking about lyrics I had to go kind of meta with my pick.
Unfortunately I had previously posted Without A Net, which features Althea (and I do not own Go To Heaven, still waiting for the Audio Fidelity re-issue), with the lyric "you may be the clown in the burying ground" a Shakespearian reference to Yorick from Hamlet, a clown who's skull is found in an open grave.

I had a couple of choices for today, but ended up going with Sticky Fingers because my other choices were my only choice for other days this month...
I didn't intend to sit this month out - but I have listened to 2 records so far this entire month. Part of that is because I've spent roughly half of the nights so far in my own bed. Been out of town a fucking shit ton...
Anyway - following along on Insta and y'all are killing it. Looking forward to joining a future round.
I had a pipe burst and now my entire first floor is gutted.
Me, my wife, my son and dog have been sleeping on couches for the past week and will be doing the same until all floors, walls, plumbing and carpets are replaced.
I'm still listening to records upstairs.
Get it together, Pie.

This.
I went way obvious with my pick today. When I made the list, I did not my own have records in mind. That may have been a mistake.
When it comes to portables PG I swear by the old newcombs. Awesome vintage and the sound and needle are way above the newer options out there.
Also RJ did you happen to be in cahoots with the weatherman when you were coming up with todays category?

Row Knows...
Vestax Handitrax
I think I've posted this on the paug before but the Vestax is solid. Well built. RCA outs. Pitch control. Definitely will need a portable speaker to plug into it as the built in speaker is low volume. Only drawback. I think Blatboom and Barnes have the Vestax as well.

Is that the same one you've had for a while? I remember you having one that looked like that when Akron was in philly.
Had a rough week at work and fell out of the routine. Will have to jump back in when I have some time.
Trying to get back on track guys. Still in recovery mode from Mex. Sorry to hear about your busted pipe Aug. That always sucks.
Extra snow day has me on track to catch up today.
I guess Nirvana is the way to get likes. My Kurt 7' from yesterday has over 150 likes so far. Most if the other posts are around 30-45 likes.
True!
I posted In Utero that got a whole ton of upvotes.
who's got Feb? I will likely sit out Feb. but have a list for March.
I'll give it a go unless anyone else wants to.
I gotta sit out.

Me too. I'm not sure I can finish this month.
You old timers with your gutted first floors and your burst fractures. :shakehead:

It's not the size of the boat, it's the motion in the ocean. :mrgreen:
Gettin' the itch.
Finally settled back into my house and I wanna spin!
Any interest in March?
I'd play again. A little March Madness sounds nice.

There's a good #marchvinylchallenge going on at Instagram. Good categories. I was tempted to join but too busy right now. Check out vinylmike68's feed for the list....
Sorry I'm so late to this but I may play along with that marchvinylchallenge if we're not doing a paug one, thanks for the headsup.
Is this where we can brag about things such as Jason Lytle "Liking" my post of "Yours Truly, The Commuter"?
This is one of the places.
Cool!
Official Phish account liked my Story Of The Ghost post.

The Phish from Vermont are following the Paug. We all know that.
They liked my A Live One cover photo on FB a couple of months ago.
