Portland Maine

Hey Folks--planning a trip to the other Portland and was hoping to get some tips from the community seeing as you are a cultured crew....suggestions for all of the following very welcome!

Record shops that carry new/used vinyl
Hi End Audio Shops
Music venues (jazz, acoustic, singer-songwriter, classical)
Restaurants (I hear the food scene is pretty good--where do the locals who enjoy a good meal go?)

Headed there in the spring or early summer....thanks for sharing!

Portland is in the midst of a foodie revival and there are no high end stereo shops (at least that I know of). Lots of music venues which I recommend you look up, and it's a really cool town that I visit often (my wife and I will be in Portland in a couple of weeks)...I lived in Kennebunk for a decade. "Local 188" is a fave restaurant...there are many others...Maine is "the way life should be"or so they say. So call Larry.

Portland is a smartphone music place period .Maine is a great place but only if you never go into woods or walk in grass .
Unless you enjoy having Lyme Disease ruining your life that is .
