Notable New Stuff

Lots of metal and noise folks in today for a big fest in town, giving the store a ditch gym to go smoke in the alley vibe. A perfect saturday at Quimby’s!

Also, awesome events this week! Tomorrow (Sunday) Russell Howze presents Stencil Nation and then on Wednsday is comic artists Adrian Tomine/Seth! For more info about events, go here.

And a quick reminder: we will open 2 hours later than usual on Tues., June 9th at 2pm instead of noon.
