Record Store Day, April 19th 2008

From the organizer's website:

On Saturday, April 19, 2008, hundreds of independently owned music stores across the country will celebrate Record Store Day. On this day, all of these stores will simultaneously link and act as one with the purpose of celebrating the culture and unique place that they occupy both in their local communities and nationally.

No real word on what stores are involved yet, and I can't even begin to imagine what said involvement would entail, but I'm glad there's finally something that Henry Rollins, Sam Phillips, that dude from Dream Theater, Patton Oswalt, Del the Funky Homosapien, Charlie Louvin, and G-Love (no word from Special Sauce yet) can agree upon.
