As many of you know, nearly 500 folks came through for the last record fair, and this looks to have an even bigger draw being that it all goes down at one of DC’s staple venues. Plenty of space to look for vinyl or hang out and catch the DJs doing their thing. What better way to spend your Sunday during 3 day weekend in February?
