Washington's Oldest Independent Record Store Newsletter Vol.3 No.19 5/21/06 Greetings from Quimper Sound! We have big, BIG news today. The first announcement is that Quimper Sound is once again giving scholarships to local youth for the Centrum Workshops this summer. We're offering one scholarship each to Centrum's Slide and Steel, Jazz, and Country Blues workshops and four scholarships to the School Of Rock Come on down to the store for applications and more information - act quickly! And now for the biggest announcement in the storied 32+ year history of Quimper Sound. WE'RE MOVING! On July 1st, we'll be re-opening as Quimper Sound & The Analog Lounge in our new space in the lobby of the First American Bank Building at 230 Taylor - directly across the street from the Rose Theatre. We'll be tearing down the wall between what was (is) the Lavender Shop and what was Sol Imports and opening up the whole lobby. It's a glorious space and we're really excited about all the new things we'll be able to do for you to enjoy. A small sampling includes: Music: 1) Expanded selection - including move DVDs, records, imports and specialty CDs 2) Record Vault - The original (and intact) bank vault is being converted into vinyl-only space with a turntable listening bar and a lot more new vinyl and a new 7" section 3) Live music - a small stage (big enough for three or four acoustic musicians) for scheduled in-store concerts and impromptu performances. Coffee Bar: 1) Coffee! We'll be introducing a coffee bar - complete with full espresso service and a fine selection of teas and select pastries. 2) Comfort. In conjunction with the coffee bar there will be a couch, some chairs and a totally chill-out vibe. 3) Play Pit. Our employees have always been "family friendly" - now our space is too. 4) Free Wireless Access Extended Hours: 1) We'll be open most weeknights until 10pm and MIDNIGHT on Friday and Saturday night! There is a ton of work to be done between now and July and all our plans aren't finalized. If you have any suggestions (right down to what color you think the carpet should be) by all means send them our way. Whew! As always, feedback is much appreciated - keep it coming to: feedback@quimpersound.com - thanks! And now, on with the show . . . -Contents- 1. New Releases Coming 5/23 2.
