While the rest of us stocked up on notebook paper, No. 2 pencils, and Lisa Frank Trapper Keepers (or simply continued to stare at computer screens for eight hours a day), DJ Shadow has spent back-to-school season returning to his record-spinning roots.

Specifically, he has spent a few hours of every day in September spinning live at Village Music in Mill Valley, California-- over on the million-dollar-median-house-price side of the Bay. What's more, he will continue to do so until September 30, when there will be a bigger party commemorating the store's closure after 50 years of operation (also the explanation for Shadow's residency).

Today, Shadow hits Village Music at 4 p.m. with Cut Chemist.
