Day 709 - Santa Claus - 04.29.13

Last month at Wonder Con my wife and I bought this Santa Claus poster.  We thought is would make a great Christmas decoration.  After putting it a frame, though, we thought it would make a great decoration year round and so we hung it in our dining room.  It was something I saw today.

Day 703 - Randy 'Doc' Johnson of The Heat Seekers - 04.23.13

This evening the family and I went to Viva Cantina in hopes of catching a singer who sings Italian songs.  Sorry, but I already forgot the name.  For some reason he was canceled and a group called The Heat Seekers performed.  They did TV and movie theme songs.  It was great fun.  They played all songs that I knew and loved.  They also had this great keyboard wind instrument.  Randy hear was sort of the front man of the band introducing the songs and such.  They had a woman named Justine on Xylophone and she sang some tunes as well.  She did a great version of Skyfall.  They will be playing again soon, so if you have a chance I recommend seeing them.  It was something I saw today.

Day 701 - Atari Touch Me - 04.21.13

Today was a nice relaxing day at home.  I listened to and digitized some records.  I read a bunch of Batman Knightfall.  I also photographed and scanned a bunch of records.  I also took a few moments to photograph this old handheld toy of mine.  This is one of the original hand held games.  I must have gotten it back in '78 or '79.  It was something I saw today.

Day 700 - Record Store Day - 04.20.13

Today was Record Store Day.  I planned on going and maybe picking up a few records pressed just for today.  I did get a couple records, but nothing super exciting when compared to what else I found.  At one of the record stores I went through all their 7" records and pulled out a stack of interesting records.  Many were not priced.  I brought them to the front desk to get priced and then I could figure out what I could afford.  I thought that was all I was going to get.  But then one of the guys working there walked by with a Flipper album.  I asked if I could see it and I then told him I was going to buy it.  He then told me had gotten a bunch of punk records from the 80's out.  The store had just gotten in a big record collection and they were literally just unpacking boxes and putting out records.  I found some of these in the racks and others as the Black Flag and two Big Black records I grabbed as soon as he priced them.  I'm sure there were more gems in the boxes, but I had to cut myself of and leave before I spent any more money.  Anyway I was pretty excited to get these few records.  I laid them out for this photo to immortalize the days treasure.  It was something I saw today.
