Tourist Experiences City By Buying Used CDs

CHARLESTON, SC—Tourist Alex Pratt decided to “get the feel” of the historic South Carolina port city of Charleston by making the rounds of its local used-CD stores Tuesday. “I found a Marshall Crenshaw CD I didn’t have, and really lucked out on The Feelies’ The Good Earth—I haven’t seen that in years,” said Pratt, who has also shopped for music in Boston, San Francisco, Gettysburg, PA, and Kansas City. “I like this place. It’s a lot like my regular used-CD shop back in Chicago.” Foregoing a ferry-ride to nearby Fort Sumter, Pratt said he intended to spend the remainder of the afternoon peeling the protective plastic off the CD cases and enjoying a sandwich from a local Subway restaurant.
