DAD-ROCKER FATHER’S DAY GIFT IDEAS FROM THE RECORD EXCHANGE!

May 19, 2010 - Gift Shop , The Record Exchange Blog - by - No Comments

Father’s Day (June 20) will be here before you know it, and The Record Exchange wants to make sure all the Dad Rockers out there get the kind of treatment they deserve.

In addition to our new collection of Father’s Day cards, The Record Exchange Gift Shop is well-stocked with Dad-itude. If you’re thinking clothing, well, let’s just say your dad would probably rather rock one of our rock T-shirts than some crappy Sears pastel polo shirt.

No matter his listening tastes, we have your dad’s torso covered: Built to Spill, Josh Ritter, Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Black Flag, U2, Pearl Jam, Pixies, Nirvana, Radiohead, etc. etc. We also have custom Record Exchange and Record Store Day tees!

Keep reading eTales in the weeks leading up to Father’s Day, as we’ll be offering gift suggestions in each issue!

May 10, 2010 - Gift Shop , On Sale , The Record Exchange Blog - by - No Comments

The Record Exchange’s $2.99 used CD bin debuted earlier this year looking like a pencil-necked geek. But spring training was good for the lad, and now he’s bigger and bulkier than ever before.

Just recently we added a bunch of soundtracks and classical titles to the bin. Remember the Kids soundtrack featuring Lou Barlow‘s Top 40 hit “Natural One” with his Folk Implosion side project? Yup, it’s in there. Watch the “Natural One” video above and revel in its ’90s indie-tude!

If you’re unfamiliar with the NoonTunes Flash Sale, it’s a special three-hour Monday sale when we offer super deals on everything from CDs and vinyl records to cool gift shop items and beverages at our espresso bar.

We hold the sale every Monday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and reveal the details in the morning over our blog, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Pony Express courier, etc.

We chose Monday for NoonTunes because, well, Mondays suck. And what better way to get out of the office than to come down to your favorite independent record store and score deep discounts during your lunch break!
