IFFBoston Interview: I Need That Record!
Bostonist
Bostonist: What inspired you to create a documentary about the plight of independent record stores?Brendan Toller: I got my first turntable and first records (early Beatles Bowie’s Space ddity) when I was 9. Going to record stores was always something I grew up with going with my dad and at age 1213 it started to become my own thing. Record Express was a New England chain that I had grown up with: 3 stores within a 30-mile radius I’m guessing. So there were a lot of great discoveries (Clash – London Calling Neil Young – Tonight’s the Night Dinosaur Jr. The Damned) while mom was shopping at TJ MAX or Joann Fabrics. Around age 15 16 and 17 I was in there almost once a week buying new releases and scouring the used section. When I went to Hampshire College in Amherst MA I was spoiled: 6 records stores (now down to 4 I think) with great taste selection and prices.

Seeking Alpha
Just for comparison purposes these terms are comparable with offers from SunTrust M&T PNC and others here in the local markets. So while we are being aggressive in deposit gathering we are not out there all alone leading the market with irrational pricing. Deposits attributable to the premier money market account balance have grown by more than 50% since the end of the year. We?ve had a decline in overall timed deposits during the first quarter primarily due to pricing decisions to asset us in managing our margin. We have structured the premier account to serve as what we internally call a lead or hook product. That means we are using it to attract new household store company and then sell ourselves in to an increased share of the customer?s overall wallet. Since introducing the premier product we have secured over 1100 new households to our company.
