SEPT 8 – FELINE themed music on Twitch
Since we had to postpone Shimmer until next Tuesday, I’ve decided to do a short & fun DJ live stream tonight, playing only FELINE themed music! 9pm CST until…maybe midnight? Depends on how much “cat” music I have in my collection! No specific genres, just kitty tunes! Why? WHY NOT?! I love cats & music & was all set to DJ tonight anyway! Zola and Luna also asked me to (and said they’d make an appearance – plus they wanna show off their new Twitch emotes.) Join
& kitties here: www.twtich.tv/scaryladysarah
AUG 29 – Record Store Day: Covid Edition
MORE INFO FORTHCOMING!
There will not be a Record Store Day 2020 on June 20. In fact, there will not be a “Record Store Day” in 2020. Instead of releasing all titles on one day, RSD will be staging a series of RSD DROPS — three dates in August, September and October where smaller chunks of the RSD 2020 list will be released. These Drops will be a date when exciting fun pieces come out–only at an indie record store.

Masks will be required for entry and social distancing guidelines will be strictly enforced. Hand sanitizer will be provided and also available for purchase. If things get busy, we will have a line outside, 6 feet apart, and there will be a 20 minute limit on people browsing the vendors tables so everyone gets a chance to check it out so come on down! See y’all on the 23rd!
