Record Store Day 2012 in Chicago

Last year, Record Store day was one of our favorite days of the year. We saw Joan of Arc, in Tall Buildings and the 1900's play! This year should be no exception for great bands. After a 5 min google session, here's a semi/work in progress list of what's cracking in Chicago on Record Store Day 2012.

Bucket O' Blood
(Pick up "Crooks and their Castles" here!) 
"In celebration of Record Store Day, we're gonna be having an in-store acoustic performance from Jason Smith (Sass Dragons/Rad Payoff) and Annie Strong (This is My Fist). The show is FREE, ALL AGES, and BYOB, so come by listen to some tunes and buy a record or two!"

Favorite Records
"Our Record Store Day celebration will be second to none. DEADBEAT & Silver Abuse providing live entertainment @2:00pm & 5:30pm respectively. MODchicago's Sir Eric Colin and Moe Madness covering the afternoon DJ sets, with Sonorama & Sonido Triton rounding out the night."
