RECORD STORE DAY

CD Warehouse Duluth & Kennesaw Facebook CD Warehouse Atlanta

Visit CD Warehouse on Saturday, October 24 and celebrate Record Store Day. is national event recognizes the vinyl record and those great album covers. Everything is different in 2020, even Record Store Day. RSD was conceived in 2007 as a way for independent record store ow ners and employees to celebrate and spread the word about the unique cu lture surrounding individually owned record stores in the US and abroad. e carnival like atmosphere is somewhat subdued this year with social distancing and use of masks. Overnight camping is discouraged but the stores will have plenty of stock on hand when the doors open. e emphasis will be on finding the titles more than hanging out. To honor this event CD Warehouse will be buying and selling vinyl recor ds t hroughout the month. Find out more at Facebook.com/CDwarehouse.
