Vinyl everywhere on TV....

It seems everywhere you look on TV, LPs and Turntables are there...
The new Carling Chrome TV ad (awful T/T , but a T/T and LP nonetheless!) , the new *hit* Sky 1 legal drama , Suits, the main character has a huge LP collection, very badly stored ...House is back next week, and guess Hugh Laurie's LP collection and T/T will feature prominently again.
I'm so glad I'm part of this new media , think they'll catch on ?
:D

Whenever they want to depict a renaissance man, they show him playing records and meditating.Like Steve McQueen in THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR, you can hear the writer say to himself, "how can I make him look more cerebral?" They then bust out the Beethoven.

If this thing takes off, it'll be bad news for guys like me snagging primo records at garage sales like a vinyl-obsessed vulture. Can't the kids today get some kind of record-playing app for their smartphones instead?
I know it's only rock & roll, but I like it.

Since all things hip and trendy tend to fade away really quickly I think we'll have a fresh supply of used vinyl in the not too distant future.

In yesterdays episode of Suits, the LPs were actually touched and got a mention ;-)
Woeful storage, and I'll bet they're not stored alphabetically ;-)
