Horror Business Dublin City (1 Viewer)

Ok, so I have been keeping it quiet for a while but I suppose its time to let the cat out of the bag. I am opening a shop on Crow Street in Temple Bar. I wont be open for another week or two but rest assured I will post back up a few days before I open up.
The shop is called Horror Business Dublin City and its a record store focusing on Punk, Hardcore, alternative, and Psychobilly/Rockabilly music. I am currently waiting on a load of stock to arrive but I already have loads in.

There will be new and used CDs, T-shirts/Hoodies/Hats and all sorts of other merch and bits and pieces.

At the moment I have a couple hundred used Cds and records (7",10",12"), monkey load of new cds and records (7",10",12") Shirts from bands like Wisdom in Chains, bloodclot and loads more stuff like John Joesphs biography "Evolution of a Cro-Magnon"

Its a small shop but its going to be jam packed by the day it opens. I'm mad for the local music so all bands are welcome to drop in their Cds and merch and I'll flog it for you. Also tickets for shows will be available in-store.
I'll rip any CD you buy to high quality MP3 for free if you want to listen to your purchase on yer mp3 player on the bus home.

Anyway, I'll have pictures of the store in about a week online as well as www.horrorbusiness.ie being up and running with a full webstore ASAP too.

Thanks folks.

Am I not looking hard enough or does the myspace not have the address on it?

It doesnt no. Its a bag of shite that im working on.

Its unit 3, Spangers Yard, Crow Street. Its next door to the Foggy dews back door.

Awesome. I presume for local bands you'll do sale or return? If so,it could be a great opprtunity for bands to get those copies they are sitting on out and available. It could also help yourself with stock.
I get the impression you'll stock demo tapes/cdr's etc? how about zines? seems like zines are somewhat lost for an outlet these days,at least the few that are still in existence.

Sale or return on local bands stuff. Zines are more than welcome yeah. Im building a shelf for the them at the moment.

New record store?!! DEADLY! Sounds great. If you have a webstore that can accept laser you'll end up getting way way too much of my cash.

Working on the laser card situation. Its all a fuckin mess online at the moment.
