Reclaim Your Time, 22 Minutes At A Time

Our attention spans have never been nearly as mangled, jostled, and outright stolen as they are today. But there's an app for that: Listening to records. We know you may very well know this, but we wanna say it out loud, because it's a good reminder. The average LP side — like the ones we'll be playing Wednesday through Sunday nights at 48 S. 2nd St. starting this fall — clocks in at 22 minutes. That's a great chunk of time in which to stare out the window, let your mind wander, or even hold the hand of the person across the table from you. That 22 minutes can hang on its own as its own moment or be the beginning of a longer moment; it's up to you and no one else. But you have to claim it. It's so easy to get overwhelmed, but dig this: 22 minutes is just long enough to get whelmed.

We're 48 Record Bar. Our mission: To get people together to listen to records.
