Addiction...

This shyt is killing me.
So I finally managed sorting a Hotel & Tickets out to visit wifey abroad in Paris...
I already calculated everything in Terms of food, train tickets,..... and DIGGING MONEY

So I sit here, having like 4 more days untill I leave and ALL I can think of is hitting up my local spot.
I left an equivalent of ~ $50 in a 30 minute shopping there last time & I knows they got some new ish in stock for mee argghhh.
I heard Paris is good for diggin, paris is wack for digging, paris is expensive, paris got libaries.. So I feel kinda tormented not spending the digging cash now and not being sure if the spots there got heat...
Guess I'll just havte take some pills or something to calm me down. How do y'all get round this? I DONT EVEN EBAY ANYMORE
I feel so bad not having digged for like 2 weeks

whats the deal

be strong young warrior.

sign's of the typical addict thats me every month i have 300 dollars left i pay rent and two bills and i'm constantly lookin on the net to find records ,i found what kills me is the S/H but anywaysthere's shops around my area that got some great stuff and i riad them then after i have no money the killer stuff comes in and i find my self like a dope fein scrouging around for anyway to make that quick buck so i can go get those new records that came in.

most of the time i just got to not think about it (try to at least)and try another spot and just browse around ,you go to the new spot and find gems galore.....

word. Not thinking of it is hard. This place and a few other forums dont make it any better. Atleast I can share my pain here

A record in the hand is better than two in the Parisian bush.

I've never found anything much in Paris. Maybe the people I know just don't know about the secret spots.....but......I don't know.
Paris is good for soul/funk re-issues...especially on CD....

But, if your local spot is a 'sure thing', hmmmmmm...............

Hi, my name's Terry... and I'm a vinylholic. Vinyl addiction has a higher relapse rate than heroin. Just when you think you're done with the stuff... you find yourself pawning microphones to feed your addiction. hahahah I love it!

fleamarkets is where its at in paris ,.. atleast thats what I heard from one side...

walk around paris askin for spare change say you need money to get home then spend that on vinyl!

ive acutally cooled down on buying records. i do cop a few crates from people i know and garage sales recently, but i dont buy em like i used to. Its really a financial thing. Gotta pay rent, bills, etc... And im buliding a laptop for beatmaking so thats digging in my pockets. But once i get that out the way, imma start copping wax again. But for the moment i got mad shit to listen to and go thru so its all gravy. I still got new sounds.
