Well last Saturday we had our most attended and craziest listening party to date with Twenty One Pilots. We had 100 wristbands and posters to give out which we thought was way more than necessary, but after over 120 people came through we were out of everything. We also might have got in trouble with the mall for having too many people in our store and being too loud, sorry.

Yesterday Pepperoni turned 7! Folks came in and wished him happy birthday and at least one handmade card was presented. For folks who don’t know their Pepperoni lore, 7 years ago he wandered into our original location and never left. He’s been running the show ever since.

Here are your Friday Releases!
– TWENTY ONE PILOTS and their eighth studio album “Breach” – is actually being released tomorrow even though we had the advance listening party last weekend! Yes we will have copies available for sale, most of them will be the blue smoke indie exclusive vinyl!
– LED ZEPPELIN have a “Live EP” coming out!?!? Going along with the 50th anniversary of “Physical Graffiti” this consists of (four) songs from that album performed live in years 1975 and 1979.
– A re-issue for the 1995 album by JOHN PRINE, “Lost Dogs + Mixed Blessings” out on black and also popcorn flavored vinyl.
– A 50th anniversary pressing of Grateful Dead’s “Blues For Allah” – available on green vinyl and also picture disc!
– ED SHEERAN has his 8th studio album out, called “Play”. There are a bunch of different variants for this, we ordered three different kinds.

This week Pepperoni picked a Minecraft record!

“Heyyyy all you Pepperoni fan’s. Do any of my followers out there play the game “mine craft?” I am just now finding out about it. It’s a computer game where you play with blocks and they came out with a movie about it this summer. Well, apparently some people like it. Or if you like ambient music, think Brian Eno, you might like this. (This is apparently music from the actual game, not the movie soundtrack). (The movie soundtrack IS coming out on October 17th on vinyl and we will have it).”

We also just stocked new shirts at our Downtown store for all you loud music enjoyers

this show is happening downtown on Saturday, also for you loud music enjoyers
