Formerly known as CD Collector, this friendly neighborhood record store changed its focus when it changed its name. Now Radio-Active Records, the store has a wide selection of new and used vinyl and a sampling of CDs, instead of vice versa. Along with that change, Radio-Active has more than doubled its size. The new area in the back houses rows of vinyl and a stage. Local bands and out-of-towners with indie cred find their way to the small performance space almost every week. What will a show cost you? Nada. They're always free. Show your thanks by picking up a record. After all, you'll be hard-pressed to find something that doesn't suit your tastes as the selection ranges from current music to electro to rare grooves. Psss� make good with the staff. A lot of the good stuff is in the back.
