00:00It's April and that can only mean one thing for music fans,
00:02Record Store Day is around the corner and we're here in Lyon at one of our favorite music stores
00:08to talk to the owners about what it takes to put on Record Store Day,
00:12what it means to them and the potential challenges facing the industry right now.
00:16Let's go.
00:22Well, it's a lot of work but it's also a lot of pleasure because we don't do any commercial operations
00:27all over the year
00:28and it's an opportunity for us to have a beautiful opportunity, a beautiful commercial opportunity
00:34since this year there will still be 400 collectors available
00:37and it allows us to know with clients, people who are fans or pro-fans
00:42who would not be able to go to the store if there was not a collector of their favorite artist
00:47or group.
00:53We're used to say that we have clients from 7 to 77 years old.
00:57It's true.
00:57Which is not at all the case, but this year we will have, for example,
01:01two examples of collectors.
01:03We will have a 45 tours Taylor Swift.
01:05So here we are on a range between 15, 16, 17, 20.
01:09And we'll have a quadruple vinyl from Pink Floyd.
01:13So there we are even on a,
01:15without wanting to reference who you are,
01:20on is more on a range of high level in terms of age.
01:29What kind of impact are you doing with the market?
01:32it has always an impact. It has an impact on the price and the way the people consume the vinyl.
01:42It's impressive. But with the arrival of the war in Ukraine, we had an augmentation,
01:49since the oil price is often indexed on the price of gas and reciprocally, so we had
01:55a, from 2022, an augmentation pretty flagrante of the price of purchase, so it was repercut on the
02:00price of the price. Today, David, with the war in Iran, we hope, for the moment, we haven't
02:05yet had any counter-coups, but we hope that the war will not durer, to recognize an inflation
02:10which is actually prejudicial to our activities.
02:20I'm a generation who has known the 70s and 80s in terms of groups. It's a group irlandais
02:26that I affectionate since the end of the 70s. It's called Finn Lizzie, the Finn Elizabeth.
02:31It's a group that has marked a little bit the esprit due to its leader, who was a real
02:36person, a chanteur, bassist. There, they sort a live, a new live, and it's always an emotion
02:43to find this person. And I, every time, it makes me cry. I'm sorry to talk about it, but I
02:49hope you can come back to the Record Store Day. I'll have my pocket of clothes next to me.
02:54Pareil, c'est un peu Madeleine de Proust, ayant vécu mon enfance dans les années 2000. J'attends
03:02particulièrement le vinyle de la tournée, enfin, du live Madison Square Garden des Fallot Boy,
03:09entre autres. Il y en a plein d'autres, mais...
