This pretty much crushes my idea of a record store / bar. A new store in Phoenix, AZ is opening up called Sweets & Beats. As the name hints, it will sell both candy and records. Dang that idea rules. All I know is I am glad I don't work there because I can barely contain myself around a room full of records so you add a whole lot of sugar into the mix and you would probably find me in a candy coma on the floor with gummy bears stuck to my hair while hugging a variety of LPs and 7"ers...but I am sure I would be smiling.
Imagine if this clip included bins of records too. Heaven on earth.
We need to stay out of there.
ReplyDeleteI have always thought that in order for the indie stores to stay alive they needed to be forward thinking in different avenues of making money.
ReplyDeleteI personally vote for record store/laundromat. Shop while you wait for that spin cycle to finish. The store would also sell refreshments and snacks. Yum.
Now all I need is the 200k to start the venture. Who is with me?
