It’s about to be that time again! Time for the third annual Record Store Day! As always we have some rather deep discounts on all stock in the store, a full day planned of in-store performances, tons of exclusive releases(list is below!) and just an absolute blast of a time.
Did we mention deep discounts? Well, if there was something you had your eye on lately, Record Store Day would be the day to get it! We’ll be discounting everything as follows…
•20% off all new CDs, LPs, DVDs, Accessories(Record Players, Record Maintainence, etc)! This does exclude Record Store Day specific items due to their limited nature and exclusivity of this day.
•10% off all items already on sale! This includes all of our CDs on the listening stations and anything with a red sticker.
•33% off all used CDs, LPs, DVDs!
We couldn’t be more proud of the line-up we have for this year. We have some terrific bands coming in from all over the country, lending their time to the cause of Record Store Day and the best way to show your gratitude would be to come out and watch! Here is a tentative line-up for the day!
