Vendor Aaron Baker said one of the best parts of the convention is the local community coming together to celebrate a love of music.
“The community that shows up every year is from all over Arkansas and the people are always so nice,” Baker said. “The event organizers are very professional and make it a lot of fun.”
People are buying records again. But will the vinyl revival last?
