    I Just went to Toad Hall over there Last Saturday, Still no PJ 20 Vinyl there, but some Leftovers from RSD Black Friday were there... Managed to get the Nirvana Singles Set and the Soundgarden 10" I Did order a copy of PJ 20 from Reckless Records in Chicago... So I have one copy.. but the records broke through the sleeve in shipping..

    I love toad hall. The folks that run the place are super nice, and I could spend days (or weeks!) exploring that place ... So much vinyl!

    All of you around Buffalo Grove should check out the Sam Ash there.
    The store manager is the hugest PJ fan. They play PJ constantly there and
    he built a huge PJ20 display the week before the Alpine shows.

    Thanks for the tip!

    I usually go to the Lombard location, but it sounds like the Buffalo Grove one might be worth the drive.

    I don't live too far from Revolution, so I'll have to stop in and try the Faithfull Ale. I have one in my fridge, but haven't found the right time to crack it open yet. I like most of the beer they make at Revolution, so now I've got another reason to go. Thanks for the info.

    Since you are both from the Park Ridge/EP area, did you ever shop at or work at Thompon's Finer Foods in Park Ridge? It was on the corner of Cumberland and Touhy I worked there while in college.

    Nope, we shopped at Happy Foods on NW Hwy :) We used to go to Bailey's all the time over there but it's gone now. Boo!
