RECORD STORE DAY, A DAY TO REMEMBER.
What day,
thanks so much to everyone for making this our busiest day at the shop
to date, but far more importantly a day to remember for many reasons and
so much to take in.Starting with the queue, were Tony from Wallasey got
first spot at 5.45pm Friday evening.Last Year was early but this
was so unexpected and with many following shortly after, by 9pm there
was the makings of a sizeable queue.We had a Tim celebrating his
Birthday overnight(thats dedication),three ladies on the way back from
the pub in the early hours who spotted the queue and vowed to return
with bacon sandwiches, which they did to feed the many, just wish i knew
who they were to thank them.We opened the shop at about 8.45 am just
after Rubens had been down to the shop with Free Coffees, not forgetting
Richer Sounds of Chester who handed out many goodie bags.Then it was
straight into those RSD releases, such a lovely experience to be a small
part such an amazing Global event. As always so much joy to to be found
from people in the queue who all have their own stories to tell.With
the Record Fair kicking off just after 9am special thanks to the dealers
who provided a great event for all and Ros,Dave and Chris who helped
out on the day.The Live music upstairs at the Daniel Owen Community
Centre was off the scale, thanks to Tom for doing such a great job on
Sound, Kavus Torabi for his cosmic spell binding performance and
Sendelica for nearly taking the roof off,loved it.Last but not least
Pat, James and Sophie , we all had a lovely day and hope you did too.
We are so lucky, thank you!
