A flashback to a previous lifetime. The time I generally describe as my misspent youth…read more Growing up in western Washington state meant a lot to many people, and everyone has their own backstory. Looking back I can't imagine wanting to ever leave. Actually I never did. But I leave I did, and I mourned it for the first decade. Then during the middle of the second decade I ceased to miss aspects and eventually came 'round to mourning it again, but for entirely unexpected reasons. But yesterday I reached into my 500Gb hard drive and scooped out a selection of CDs to cram inside my iPod Classic to listen to on a drive to a distant city called Plover (I like to childishly call it P Lover) for what was to be a single trip for work. It turned into two days, which wasn't a bad thing. During the drive I broke out Stoner Witch, The Melvins 90s major label disc. Listening to that in my very awesome new Pioneer car stereo was way better than my nice but not sturdy home speakers. So upon todays end of workday I wanted to find a used Cd store or a thrift store that might have something cool. Instead I found an awe inspiring little store that's chock full of EVERYTHING, that is if everything is rock music related. I didn't bother to look at the possibility they might also sell schlocky country music by crappy rock musicians that decided to go the so wrong right wing GOP path to Ooops. I wandered into the wrong thought. I found a place that is so awesome I will make this area a destination instead of only a place to stop for a whiz or perhaps because work brought me. GO! Don't hesitate. Radio Kaos Records is f'n the place!

He didn't great me alll; he just took my stuff and rang it up. He did not speak to me at all during the transaction, or even make eye contact, and just handed me the receipt and never said a word. I then spoke with the employee and the following is how that conversation went: Me: Do you always treat your customers this way. Sam: What? Me: You didn't great me, you just took my stuff and rang it up. You did not speak to me at all during the transaction and just handed me the receipt and never said a word. Sam: I guess. Me: Who is your store manager. Sam: I am Me: Wow, you are the store manager. Sam: Yes, have a nice day I would not recommend this store. I will not be frequenting this Barnes and Noble in the future, as I have better options where the customer is still treated with respect.

They stock sealed copies of Limited Run Games for $30 which is just unbelievably awesome! They also stock fun toy merchandise which is neat!

There is little to complain, besides the basic comments: "It didn't have what I was looking for."…read more"There should be more books and movies to choose from." "The prices are a little high for some items." As far as these things can be true, the store is great at finding generally what you want. You might not find exactly what you are looking for, but what store does. You don't get a lot for selling, but they are always buying books, movies, etc. Plus, you get cash for what you sell, never credit. You can find good deals on an array of media. The staff is also excellent; there might be times when they get short with you, but that is okay. They get all kinds of customers.

When a recording as unknown as The Art Bears "Winter Songs" comes available, I know I'm not going to find it in the Exclusive Company. Hell, I'm not going to find it most anywhere in the United States. Scarce recordings are, unfortunately,, best found online. It's just the nature of today's market. But... I have found some great stuff here, and for a much better price than I would find online. That alone makes it worth it for my twice monthly jaunt to The Exclusive Company. I found Captain Beefheart's "Trout Mask Replica", for example, or Zappa and the Mother's "Just Another Band From LA". I'm a big Lou Reed fan and found "Berlin" and other recordings there. My point is that it's fun to browse around and find stuff at this brick and mortar store. It's great that they've remained in business when so many similar stores have closed their doors. And this is the best way to support your local scene and buy their recordings at a local store like this (yes I know it's a regional chain... but you get my point)... Go there, enjoy the wares! One other thing, why did Beefheart call it "Trout Mask Replica" ? That ain't no trout I've ever seen....

There are even edible treats like Maple Syrup and things for the little ones to like a fish fry tee. I left with a cozy Wisconsin hoodie ($40) and my boyfriend purchased not one but two Wisconsin hats ($35 each). This place has something for everyone and is an incredible way to support small and local business at the same time. Take your time perusing the very clean and thoughtfully curated spaces throughout the shop. I plan to return closer to the holiday season with my Christmas gift list in hand! Masks are required in the shop and sales associates also wore masks. Staff was dusting and cleaning when we visited. A+ on the cleanliness scale. This place was sparkling!
