As some of you may have heard – this is the email we received from the organiser ERA
“We are sad to announce that following a decision made by the organisers of Record Store Day, the event will be postponed to June 20th
This decision comes at a time of unprecedented uncertainty and the health and safety of the general public must come first
This was absolutely not an easy decision to make as hundreds of independent shops and labels have been working hard towards this year’s celebrations
We’re working with all of our partners and our stores to make this change as smooth as possible for everyone: customers, record stores, artists, labels and more. Record Store Day is everywhere and we want to hold our party when everyone can gather around safely to celebrate life, art, music and the culture of the indie record store.
Given the challenges now facing the independent record store community we urge music fans to continue to support their local record shop in whichever way they can to see us through what is about to become a very challenging time
Thank you as ever for your continued support.
VINYL & VINTAGE will of course remain open and we can assure that increased hygiene measures are being employed. Whilst the staff remain healthy we will continue to be open as normal and any customers who feel concern please feel free to telephone for further information. If you do feel unwell then please follow the government guidelines.
From all of us keep well and we hope to see you all soon.
Thanks Claire
