Greetings from Quimper Sound!

It seems like summer is finally here and it feels great! The warm evenings
are a wonderful time to venture into town and do a little shopping. We are
open until 7:00 pm Sunday-Thursday and 8:00 pm on Friday and Saturday.

Once Soundtrack-for those of you who have been waiting for the Once
Soundtrack, we have 40 copies coming in on Monday afternoon (by 3:00 pm).
Hopefully these will last a few days!!!!

We have been bringing in a large collection of new posters to the store. Our
classic reproductions include a wide range of performers from jazz greats,
classic country artists to rock icons.

We have also ventured into rare concert posters. We have a nice selection
from the 60's up to current shows and most are numbered and signed limited
editions.

All of these posters are on high quality heavy paper and are packaged in
clear sleeves with a backing board for their protection.

Our featured poster artist is Bob Masse who is local to the Pacific
Northwest. He began illustrating posters in the psychedelic era and has
produced some of the most famous posters available. He has expressed an
interest in coming for a visit.so we'll keep you posted on a possible "in
store event"!

Quimper sound is now carrying many other new items like patches, clothing,
music accessories and a larger vinyl and CD inventory. We will continue to
bring in new products and this will be an ongoing process over the coming
months.

Remember, only you can prevent bad music!

Hope to See You Soon,

Mark and Marie
