We've got a couple of exciting upcoming in-stores to announce:
Long Beach, CA's Avi Buffalo, still touring their terrific self-titled Sub Pop debut, will play an acoustic set here on Sun. Oct 17 at 7pm (the day before their Mon. Oct 18 Horseshoe show, which you can enter to win tickets for on our Contests page); and PS I Love You will be celebrating the release of their new full-length for Paper Bag, Meet Me At The Muster Station, with an in-store in our shop on Tue. Oct 26 at 7pm, after which they're co-headlining a bill at the Garrison with friend and occasional collaborator Diamond Rings later that night.
To whet your appetite, here's a video from each band—first, a solo live run-through of the Avi Buffalo ballad "Jessica", followed by our own Colin Medley's Joy Division-nodding video for PS I Love You's "Facelove"...
