music industry sales ain't what they used to be and its hard times for some of the illest stores around the bay. so show some love to the folks that are still out there providing dope music for y'all. these spots have been keepin it lit:

Amoeba, Frisco Oakland and Vallejo Street Show, Rasputins, San Mateo Zoo, Rock Bottom in Antioch, Dimple and The Beat in Sacramento, Underdog in Pittsburg, and all the other cutty smoke shops and clothing and liquor stores that push this underground music!!!!

and ESPECIALLY Creative Music on Ocean and Mission in San Francisco, this gonna be their last year open after 24 years of holdin it down for Bay Area Hip Hop!

support these folks and all the others too

i remember joe talkin about that a year ago. he said after the lease is up he's out the game. its gonna be very hard to see that store go, as it also was for other stores that went out of business. jones and harris in richmond is still goin right? haven't been there in a couple years.

welcome to banville.

I guess you didn't read above how Creative Music is going out of business...why? Thanks to places like BOT...Creative Music been a HUGE part of Bay Rap History in SF for many many years, only to have leeches like you and that site help lead to its demise. Hopefully they make grape picking machines or robotic toilet cleaners so you and your family lose work as well...

Sacramento Also has R5 Records, The Vault, and Mayhem that give us support. I just did an "Independent Artist Day" @ Dimple Records and Justin who handles the consignment over there said alot of artist did cool numbers that day and it helped out a lot. I say let's start taking some of these events and performances right to where we need the consumers to go... the RECORD STORE.
