ARChive of Contemporary Music Kicks off Holiday Sale on December 8th

ARChive of Contemporary Music Kicks off Holiday Record + CD Sales on December 8thMy sister came in town this weekend and wanted to see The Rockettes. At this morning's performance, she & I watched some complete morons try to cut the line to get in and be just generally nasty to those around them. I generally expect people to be nicer during the holiday season.

With that (the nice, not the nasty) in mind, The ARChive of Contemporary Music is kicking off their holiday sale on December 8th. The ARChive is a not-for-profit archive and research center that collects, preserves and provides information on the popular music from 1950 to the present.

There are many reasons to check this out -- it is a good cause, there are great bargains and you can never go wrong giving someone music as a holiday present.
