It never states exactly why Joe Bryson Sold Inner Sanctum Records in 1982? Was he just tired of running it? How long has Waterloo Records on 6th and Lamar been around? Inner Sanctum appears as a true independently run, indie local Austin business. Bravo! The Company parties, shows and atmosphere made me wish I was drinking a beer and there while it was happening. The Inner Sanctum prime location in west campus, near Univ. Of Texas and the drag helped a ton, I’d bet. It’s just tough to fathom how exactly business worked, pre-internet and cell phones. Joe’s  co-ed hiring was discussed and evidently displayed, but no former females were interviewed on camera for this? Overall, I could have watched more of this welcoming documentary. This atx history nostalgia could have been 1.5 hours.

I don't remember much of Inner Sanctum during these years but I do remember Cowboy. He was a character.  I went to IS many times after 1982 until 1991.  Thanks for the history.

Should you BUY a FLIPPED House? ATX Broker Associate GVM Tips, Insights.

SHOULD YOU BUY a "FLIPPED" HOUSE? Have you personally ever considered and wondered if you, yourself should BUY a "flipped house." In my 15+ years of predominantly residential Central Austin brokerage practice and experience, here are my insights, opinions, suggestions and things to be cognizant of. #1. Absolutely, for sure get a LICENSED INSPECTION on the flipped house! Not all flippers are the same. Just like in life there is a wide spectrum in regards to quality. Some flippers are flat out awful. They make very lipstick-like improvements, skip the expensive items such as the foundation, and plumbing and try to trick the consumer into paying more for a home, when the consumer shouldn't. On the Flip Side (this joke was just too obvious) There are also excellent high-quality flippers whom selectively choose which homes they flip, and then they invest carefully and beautifully while genuinely improving a home! Some of these hi-quality upper tier flippe...
