ONE MONTH FROM TODAY! BLACK FRIDAY Record Store Day at Triple Play Records Friday November 28th, 10 A.M. to 7 P.M. at 530 Main Street in beautiful historic Downtown Grand Junction.
This years poster art created Rhyan Montgomery Art. Tonic Selects Sound-System will be spinning records out front, and we are working on a food truck for breakfast and lunch! (Let us know if you want to set up for it)

Black Friday has always marked the unofficial start of the holiday shopping season. Traditionally, Black Friday has been about super-cheap prices on mass-produced goods and primarily takes place in malls and big box stores. But we really like the idea of a shopping season, especially when at its heart, a way to show the people you like that you like them. (And a way for them to show you, too. Gift-GETTING is also awesome!). And shopping at an independently owned business is like a gift unto itself. So we created RSD Black Friday.

We work year-round to shine a light on the independent businesses in your local community, the special kind that sells things that make you happy, make you smile, make you sing, bring you comfort, bring people together. Everything you find in a record store would make a great gift for someone, and it may feel a little extra nice to wrap up and give (or get!) a little something knowing its purchase helps a local, independent store.

There are artists, labels, managers and distribution companies who feel the same, and we’ve put together a list of titles for the gift-giving season that will be available at participating record stores. They come out on RSD Black Friday (this year 11/28) but may be available at record stores throughout the rest of the year, because record stores are the best place to go with a Holiday Wish List.

Record Store Day and RSD Black Friday are different events, and you can find out more about that on our RSD BLACK FRIDAY FAQ at https://recordstoreday.com/Page/1210

The List of special releases can be found in web form at https://recordstoreday.com/SpecialReleases where you can search and get more information, and a PDF that you can print out and use as a Wish List or Shopping Guide.

This Weekend…

08/14/2025

Feel the riddim, hear the horns and ride the groove the 45 is where Jamaican sound culture lives on vinyl. Join me Friday 08.15.2025 at No Coast Sushi. As I dig through my own crates of Jamaican 45's. The roots of ska, the smoothness of rocksteady and the fire of reggae... Needle drops at 5:00

No Coast Sushi tonight. Going to be playing some newer stuff inspired by the sounds of Jamaica, but recorded around the world. Come enjoy the food, a drink, and some new music…
