 ------------------------------

Greetings from Quimper Sound & the Analog Lounge. Whew! We're finally open
in our new space. It's been two weeks now and the response and feedback has
been overwhelmingly positive. We've gotten great press (for those of you who
didn't catch the Leader article, it's archived
here<http://ptleader.com/main.asp?SectionID=21&SubSectionID=21&ArticleID=15397&TM%20=83844.31%20%29>)
and a lot of folks who might never have set foot in the old store have come
in to see what all the fuss is about. Please, tell your friends - and if you
haven't been in yet yourself - please come see what we've built, we're quite
proud of it and we want it to be a place you can be proud of too...

Finally, a reminder that we are now open late, late, late. From 9am-10pm
Sun-Thurs and 9am-MIDNIGHT on Fri and Sat. All Espresso and Tea drinks are
1/2 price from 6pm-10pm Mon-Thurs. For a full list of new features click

coming to: feedback at quimpersound.com - thanks! And now, on with the show . .
