Will There Be A National Record Store Day In 2020?

April 19 was National Record Store Day, where you were supposed to go to Independent stores and help them survive. I don't know it this will be an annual thing or one-off. But as long as consumers keep tight with their record buying money, it could be a yearly event. A noble idea for sure, but what to do if didn't live in an area with many Independents Where I'm at there aren't many of these, and if you're like me and like to buy cheap or used, independent stores can make choosing difficult. I did buy 2 CD's yesterday, but they were online. Used and cheap. Not every city has a Rasputin or Amoeba that stocks lots of cheap used CD's. The stores around here have a middling selection. Make no mistake, there's nothing like going to a record store and being surrounded by voices you've heard and have yet to hear. Independents and major record stores are faltering because of price and in the case of the latter, selection. Support your mom and pop? Yes. But in this day and age of just getting by, music lovers will go for the bargain at any cost.
