there comes a time
it's been a wild ride.
after 18 crazy, tumultuous, eye-opening, thought-provoking, wonderful, at times deafening, at times silent, educational, joyous, frustrating and utterly amazing months, everyone's favorite local record store has officially* closed its doors.
we would like to extend a hearty thank you to all the regulars, the silent partners, the suppliers, the general supporters and the loiterers. it has truly been a blessing.
but, as with all things, it is time for this vagabond to move on.
we will continue to kick around this place** if you ever need anything.
keep on rockin', kids. keep on rockin'.
* - it's not OFFICIALLY official, but it pretty much is
** - i will be uploading about 1,000 more cds in the next weeks/months as i make the transition. so check in often.

sorry to hear it man.
but you lived the dream for 18 months man!
i guess now you and james are just gonna have to write/direct that movie now that you have all this time on your hands.
i'm glad that you took that shot cade.
salut, vagabond! salut.
WHAA...man. Ahh, I was sooo looking forward to visiting vagabond during my Boston trek 07.
Don't suppose you can keep it open another 2 weeks?
Proud that you put your foot out and took a chance.
If there's any vagabond t-shirts left, save me one. I'll buy it.
b- i thought about that. the store will more or less be intact (minus the electricity) when you are out here. no worries. it just won't be "open" per se.
mike and jeff- i appreciate the thoughts.
same on the shirts man. i will take an xl in black if you got it.
let me know i will bring the cash in the fall...
b, you should plan your trip for the fall then we could be there together...
I could deliver it to Mike when i'm out there in 3 weeks. And Cade i could bring the cash to you as well. My many sorries man. Of course I'll still buy from you when and where I can.
there are no straight up "vagabond" shirts left. but i do have some extra blanks and letters and could probably throw a couple together in the next few weeks.
let me know if you want anything fancy on them.
Eric and I are going to be in Boston for a few days in June as he has a work conference there. We were just saying that it would be fun to see your store...I guess we'll settle for just seeing you! We'll send more details later.

Mike, you should plan your trip for next week.
Then we could be there together.
I shed a tear...
Best wishes, man.
