Set your alarms early for Record Store Day on Saturday, April 12. The special day for music lovers and vinyl collectors occurs twice a year — once in the spring and again on Black Friday. Both times, musicians release special edition records in limited quantities.
Keep the records spinning all day at these local celebrations:
Doc’s Records and Vintage, 2628 Weisenberger St.
Visit the store from 12 to 6 p.m. for live music, an outdoor flea market, free drinks from Shiner Beer, and empanadas by Hand Pies.
Panther City Vinyl, 1455 W. Magnolia Ave., #113
You know the drill — RSD exclusives are limited to one copy of each title per person starting at 10 a.m.
Record Town, 120 St. Louis Ave., #105
Browse the store’s RSD stock, then get there right at 9 a.m. before titles sell out.
Saint Marie Records, 623 N. Chandler Dr.
If you’re an early riser and get to the store as it opens at 7 a.m., you could snag an exclusive tote, cup, and air freshener — limit one per customer as supplies last.
Don’t miss a beat — travel just outside of Fort Worth to dive into more deals. Keller’s County Line Records will host live music and food trucks, the 11,000-sqft Forever Young Records in Grand Prairie created a PowerPoint presentation for RSD exclusives, and get a free mystery bag with a $50 purchase at Hurst’s Rag and Bone Records.
