About Me


diy records was a record store that opened in 1997 in Winter Park, Florida. Soon with the help of notable locals like Toby Brown and Chris Sapone it became a haven for both local and touring bands.Each of the top eight on here played an integral role at diy. Ikky ran the place for most of the time the doors were open when I wasn't around (hell, he ran it when i was around). Susan was at every show making sure you guys paid. Lance, Brian and Keith all helped run the store when Ikky or myself weren't around (susan did that also).Lastly, while they didn't work there diy wouldn't have been the same without Jesus H Chris (who booked lots of shows at the early diy and was the reason i started doing shows) the samhain kid who singlhandidly paid my rent back in the early days and liz who guarded oi! the baby's college fund like a hawk.
those were the days. maybe we'll do it again. ***update as of December 12th, 2006***** I now have a personal myspace page and this is just for the store. that said, i really stopped taking the time to look at all the people that request to add me. unless it looks like a web cam whore or a marketing gimmick i pretty much approve everyone.that said, just because you see some band on here doesn't mean i think they are cool. just because i add you doesn't mean i endorse your music. if you happen to be in my top friends consider yourself a demi-god.
