Posters, videos, album covers, figurines and photos cover almost every inch of wall space in the 1920s home.

Fourteen years of accumulating and working in a music store has left Walker with a museum-worthy collection.

He plans to continue adding, but that doesn't mean he'll be tossing anything away.

"I've started selling some of it on e-Bay, Walker says. "I'm not going to throw something out that could be valuable to somebody."

The house is an apt representation of their relationship. They met over music - Walker manages Earshot Records; Barnes was a regular customer - and the rest is three years of history.

"I've always been a huge fan of music," Barnes says. "I've just never been as knowledgeable about it as Brian is. But I'm getting there."

The two love their place, plus, they say there's a method to the madness.

"There's not much empty wall space around here," Barnes says. "But we've got nooks and crannies and doorframes.

"It's a lot of stuff, but it all fits really well."
