The record
Title: The Get Up Kids - Something To Write Home About
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1999, Alternative, Midwest Emo, Kansas City, Missouri 5/26
Matrix #: PRC-497
Condition: EX-NM (VZ) | Members: Matt P (77' - Alive), Jim S (77' - Alive), Rob P (76' - Alive), Ryan P (79' - Alive), James D (76' - Alive)
Cultural Facts:
- Personal Struggle: James D later publicly dealt with addiction and recovery, a reminder that the emo boom’s bright touring years often had harder private costs.
- Scene Ecology: The album helped move Midwest emo from basements and VFW halls into a national touring economy without fully losing its DIY roots.
- Media Narrative: The band became a reference point for early 2000s emo, even as later mainstream versions of the genre often sounded cleaner and more corporate.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
