The time has arrived (what even is time anymore?)!

We open at 8AM  on Friday November 25th, 2022 – BLACK FRIDAY! 

 We will have RSD Black Friday items; the ones we’ll have are listed below.  The store is also open for general shopping and everything is on sale all weekend! 

We are in an industrial area so please be careful and safe in our lot. The coffee vendor, Quartertone Coffee Roasters, is slated to be here at 7:30AM.

The social media we use most is Instagram. Please do follow us there for regular stock updates and occasional announcements.

(Reminder: if you haven’t been to our store in a while – we moved 2 years ago and are now at 69 South Turnpike Road, Wallingford, CT 06492 – in the same building as the Battery Shop.)

RSD BF items will be in the main shop (not in the bay door area like we did for the Spring RSD).  Please line up by the front door. If you are here for the regular shop and not RSD items you’ll be able to bypass that line once we get that moving.

Parking can be found in the normal area that is painted in our lot and overflow parking is basically in the abutting lots.

Please be safe and mindful of those around you. Dress weather appropriate. We’ll do our best to get you out of the cold as safely and efficiently as we can.

Below is a list of what we will have available.
Record Store Day titles are limited to 1 per title per person (buy as many titles as you’d like, just 1 each).

RSD Quantity Disclaimer:
We hope we can please and fulfill the requests of a good deal of you all. As much as we’d like to have every possible thing on hand in quantities exactly matching the demand it just can’t work that way. We order a tremendous amount as do many other stores. We are allocated certain amounts of things and ultimately we get a lot because we put in the leg work. That said, we get less than we order and in some cases we miss out on items completely (trust us, it’s not purposeful by any stretch). We want everyone to be happy in the end so be excellent to each other. And if you have a request for something please let us know next week with an email or phone call and we can check on its availability.

Here are some of the dealers that will be at our Record Fair at Counter Weight Brewing on October 16th.

We also have a growing selection of vinyl LPs and one of the largest collections of soundtrack LPs you will ever encounter.”

La Birriamania 
https://www.birriamaniafoodtruck.com/

On this month’s podcast we talk to Hughie and David of CT punk band Zipper! We talk about the music we’re listening to and dive into what happened to get Zipper going.

We talk about what bands they’re playing and releasing stuff with that they’re stoked on. We talk about the way they got into music and punk in the first place and generally dive into playing music in bands. We actually stay pretty on topic in this episode only veering a couple times to talk about a couple shows that happened in the old store’s basement (Mind Eraser and Greg Ginn – separate shows).
