This Man Is 2 Megadeths Deep And Says I Have a Bad Attitude

We just had a great Record Store Day. The biggest one yet. I know we say that every year, but it is true

People lined up at both stores and were not stopped by the overnight storms and the cold that followed

We were happy to see many walk away with what they were hoping to get.

People are learning the mall store is just as packed with the goods as downtown and the lines were almost equal. Let’s do it again next year!

Anyway, we can’t take a break just yet, there’s still a lot going on this week.

Here are the new vinyls dropping this Friday:

– NOAH KAHAN with “The Great Divide” – double LP, there are actually THREE different vinyl variants that we are getting for this including rust-colored, an indie exclusive brown, and an indie exclusive “cigarette smoke” vinyl. We will be taking pre-orders for these at the advance listening party tonight!
– FOO FIGHTERS with their 12th studio album “Your Favorite Toy” we will have on red vinyl!
– Oh and you know the MICHAEL JACKSON biopic is dropping this weekend, so we will have the vinyl available!
– RINGO STARR (85 years old) has a NEW ALBUM of original material out called “The Long Road” and we will have copies on vinyl!
– The Elvis Presley “EPiC: Elvis Presley In Concert” from Elvis live in Vegas will be available as well on vinyl!

This week Pepperoni picked Disintegration

“I want to wish a very special 67th birthday to my good friend Robert Smith! This is his band The Cure’s 1989 album, Disintegration. Their eighth studio album, (and it’s a long one at an hour and twelve minutes) was the bands return to a darker / gothier side compared to their previous couple of albums. Some claim it to be their best album (Jeff tells me this was a running bit on South Park). The hits on this one include “Lullaby,” “Lovesong,” and “Pictures Of You.” Pick up a copy at Dumb and Dumber Records if you are looking to build your collection of The Cure!”

Also this Thursday at the Mall we are hosting an Advanced Listening party for the new American Football album.

Plus we just hosted an Advanced Listening party for Noah Kahan’s new album on Tuesday where over 50 people came out to listen to the new album for the first time and get a free poster.

And this Saturday we are hosting a benefit show downtown for Intricate Minds. I assume this show will be hardcore flavored.

Record Store Day Saturday April 18th!

RSD is coming up quick, even the mailman is excited. We printed bags and shirts with our exclusive RSD 2026 design. Each store will have 50 of each for the first 100 people in line.

We just published on Facebook all the titles where we only received 1 copy and which store to find those. Titles not on the list will be available at both stores. People can start lining up at the mall starting no earlier than 5am. People can start lining up downtown whenever. Also coffee and donuts will be available downtown.

If you’re coming to the mall to line up, the line will at this entrance (pictured) next to Simon Youth Learning Academy.

Something brand new we’re offering this time is our first actual Dumb Recs Plushies! You can get your own stuffed Pepperoni and Green Elephant!

This Sunday we’re hosting Park, Spitalfield, and Danny Stevens. You’ll want to get your tickets in advance

This week Pepperoni picked Mac Demarco

“I have not yet picked an album from Canadian musician boy Mac DeMarco. This is his second album “Salad Days” from 2014. This was actually recorded in his New York apartment, on a Fostex A-8 recording machine, I guess really giving it that lofi bedroom feel. This is some indie, jangly type rock. Make you feel good. Pick up a copy at Dumb Records or Dumber Records today!”

We had fun hosting our first sanctioned pinball tournament last weekend with the Pokemon Launch Party. We had 22 contestents show up, many driving in from out of town to get those sweet IFPA and PRPA points.

Brian ended up winning it, beating out many top state pinballers. Kat Davis came in 2nd and Chris O’Brien 3rd. Not that winning is that big a’deal. Anything can happen during a tournament and even if you don’t end up winning, hanging out with other pinball nerds is a lotta fun.

We’re going to make this a monthly thing so stay tuned for the next pinball tournament announcement.
