Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a pretty good day today.
I woke up today and after listening to a sermon on the radio,I had breakfast and I did my personal PC work.It was quite a lot to do and I managed to get it done in the time that I had hoped.After that,I decided to take a drive somewhere to a flea market in another area of Western New York,but when I got there,the place hours had changed because they were now closed Sunday's.But the day wasn't a total loss.I did manage to find some cool stuff at another flea market type store in the area after I had a light lunch at a restaurant that was also in the area.
I found a few record albums and a few more cassettes.I also bought today's copy of The Buffalo News because there was a story about vinyl records in the paper.It was really neat to read.I am glad seeing that vinyl records are making a serious comeback in the United States.It seems like only yesterday that record labels in the USA stopped making vinyl records back in the late 1980's when CD's flooded the market.The problem was that it was because of this that the music industry is suffering the major downfall of music file sharing and downloading,which is killing the sales of CD's.But vinyl is starting to become the "IN" thing again when it comes to music.Vinyl has a much warmer sound and has more depth than that compressed digital format called a compact disc.It was because of that format that the music industry is suffering at the moment.But it was their mistake and they actually dug their own grave.But now,it has been rebounding thanks to the return of the vinyl format in the USA and the serious resurgence that it has been making.While in the USA it was abandoned,it never really left.They were still pressing records overseas in Germany,Japan and the UK.But now,the vinyl LP is hip once again.I remember someone I knew told me one day when I bought some records at a now defunct Salvation Army thrift shop somewhere else in the area that vinyl records were obsolete and that they weren't "IN" anymore because CD's offer the ultimate in sound reproduction.I remember telling them that vinyl records will be making a comeback one of these days and you'll be kicking yourself for what you said just now.Of course,he told me that this would never happen.But it is happening.Vinyl records are coming back strong and it looks like that they will be here for a long time to come.Well......
After I ate a light dinner,I did some more personal PC work and I am now all set.I had a wonderful day today and I am glad to have gotten out to enjoy myself elsewhere and buy a few things that I really enjoy so much.
Last night,my night of entertaining the crowd was wonderful.It was yet another awesome night.As planned,I did a couple of John Lennon songs to celebrate Lennon's murderer getting denied parole once again.It was wonderful to hear on the radio during this week that he'll remain behind bars for murdering Lennon.I hope that he NEVER gets out.Again,another wonderful night of entertaining the crowd.
Tomorrow is my day off.I am hoping that the day goes well and that whatever choice I make to do something,I hope that it give me positive benefits.
That was my weekend and my hopes for the start of the new week ahead.FJ
