In the age of the download, you might think an event dedicated to the purchase of vinyl was a bit old school but there must be still a passion for the old 12-inchers as Byron Record Fair returns this weekend.

Matt Bowden, aka The Vinyl Junkie, recently returned from buying vinyl in the USA.

‘There will be DJs spinning, food available, and even a massage therapist to ease the pain of an extended vinyl digging session,’ he says. It will be held at Ewingsdale Hall, from 10am to 6pm, commencing tomorrow (Good Friday) and finishing on Easter Monday. Entry is free.
