I didn't catch if you are a local.   If you are and have any holes in your Rush collection, The Exchange has several of their recent reissues (reported to be very good) in the clearance racks.

Where do you live?

I am local.  I live in Center Twp in Beaver county, approximately a 15 minute drive North from the PIT airport.  I grew up in Brookline.

So I guess Robinson is the closest Exchange to you.

Ditto on musical taste.  Add opera to my list of things to avoid.  My first house was in Brookline.

Did you know I was an opera major in college?

The things you learn on other people's intro threads.   This is excellent!

Anyone have any rap cred?  I don't listen to it either.
