according to their website, the first real RECORD RIOT took place on June 29, 2008 in Brooklyn, NY at the Polish-American club, Warsaw, in Greenpoint. The world was way different way back then, as Brooklyn did not have its own regularly-scheduled record show. Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Record Riot made quite a mark. Over 900 frantic attendees on that June afternoon.
