With Pearl Jam being the official ambassadors for this year’s Record Stores Day, lead guitarist Mike McCready said in a statement:
“Independent record stores are hugely important to me, and have been ever since I was 12 years old. Before I even really knew what they were — there was a certain feeling of ‘this is a dream come true,’ and it’s a wonderland and there’s so much to learn in here… and it’s still that way,”.
