The Dig, The TVD First Date–and your chance to see them live in the city of your choice!

“My first record store was called Exile on Main Street. It was cleverly named as it was located on Main street in Mt. Kisco, NY where David and I grew up.”

“As a kid it was hugely intimidating. I didn’t feel quite cool enough to hang out there. To be honest I still don’t feel cool enough to hang at certain record stores. That part never really goes away. I felt way more comfortable and safe at Borders Book Store or this goofy shop called Digital Upgrade that only sold CDs. I bought CDs like The Offspring’s Smash and Salt N Pepa’s Very Necessary there.

When I was around 12 years old I started to build the avocados to browse the aisles of Exile. I would watch what other older skater kids would buy and try to seem cool and eventually had the cojones to buy a record after my dad got his old turntable working again. My first purchase there was Sly Stone’s Fresh—the one where he’s doing that badass karate kick or whatever you’d call it on the cover. I still have it, but those Salt N Peppa CDs are long gone.

That’s the beauty of vinyl. A record is a fixture in your collection for a lifetime. CDs died a slow death with the likes of Borders and the legendary Digital Upgrade.
