So my lady's been gone for the past few days, and will stay gone for about another week and a half, that leaves me with a LOT of free time.  Now it's time to learn a deep dark Country Dave secret, I'm a nerd, not even like a little nerd, but a straight up sci-fi channel watching, star trek loving, beets, bears, battlestar galactica nerd.  Right now the focus of my nerd-dom is my steadily growing vinyl collection, which today I organized:


Photobucket

We're not talking, "I'll just this look a little nicer" style organization, I mean full on alphabetical, by original release date, 12, 10, and 7 inches separated organization.  I gave a lot of thought to alphabetical, by genre, by release date, but how does one define a band like say Colossal? Are they punk? Rock?  How does one distinguish one from the other?  What of bands who've evolved past previous genre description?  Is ...And The Battle Begun really a ska album?

Like I said, nerd, these are the things I think about when left to my own devices.

For those wondering you can check out all the titles on those shelves at http://www.recordnerd.com/countrydave  

Sassy!
Dave
