Smashed Plastic provides an essential service to the fans and interviewees of Car Con Carne, as the only record pressing facility in the state of Illinois.
Smashed Plastic has put together a massive live music/record show event on October 1: Smashed Plastic Live Vol. 1. Joining me to talk about the must-attend event are Smashed Plastic co-owners Andy Weber and Steve Polutnik. We chatted on the Smashed Plastic loading dock, which will also serve as the stage for the event!
