The Scrounger's Report
I hunt, seek, dumpster-dive, and scrounge for rare and import CDs in and
around central Illinois and Indiana. I hit many small towns within an
approximate 120-mile radius of where I live, scouring new and used CD stores,
pawn shops, outlet malls, etc., forever in search of AOR, hard rock,
and metal CDs to add to my collection. I try to concentrate on obscure
and minor-label releases. I try to hit all the "feeding holes" every
2 months or so. Each time I return from a day's expedition (or if
I get a large batch of CDs in the mail) I'll write up a litle
report on what I found, as well as what I may have experienced on
the way to and from, hence "The Scrounger's Report".
