Virgil Dickerson
Virgil Dickerson has been running Suburban Home Records, a small, independent record label based in Denver, Colorado for the past 12 years. It started as a fanzine in September of 1995 and has become a label, a distributor, a vinyl imprint and store, a custom t-shirt company and this blog about the music industry. He remains optimistic about the future of music sales although it is tougher now than it has ever been trying to sell a product people actively get for free. Suburban Home's bands include Drag the River, Tim Barry, Love Me Destroyer, On Guard, Ghost Buffalo, Josh Small, Stereotyperider, Two Cow Garage and Adventures of Jet.

Good to hear you are busy. I noticed things were getting slow around here, so at least that explains it lol. I have been reading this blog for a while, and have actually decided to start my own label (mainly to release my own material). This blog has been a good resource for me, so I hope you can start up regular posts again soon.
