manicdogbert Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 i'm sure there's a thread but i can't seem to find it. so if somebody can post a link, that'd be great. but other than the obvious (Amoeba, Rasputin, Aquarius, etc) what other shops are in the SF and Berkeley area? I'm heading there tomorrow for the Sigur Ros at the Greek Theater but I'll have a ton of time for hitting the shops as well. doesn't one of the members of the VC board have a shop up there? anybody got the address?

dante3000 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Naw Stevos is it. It's small as shit but it's crammed with good shit. Plus Stevo works there...That's kinda cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thischarmingham Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Yeah on the east side there isn't much else. Certainly nothing in Oakland. If you like english imports Mod Lang out in El Cerrito is good to hit up. The employees can be a bit aloof but the owner is a great guy.

manicdogbert Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 Steve, cool shop you got there. I was the dude that bought the three Wailers seven inches. I'd been looking for those for a while now. Thanks for the record mailer too. It really saved me from having to cram 12 lps in the one 5 lp mailer that I brought with me. I was able to bring back all the shit I bought back to LA safely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffernutter Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Got that on 1-2-3-4 Records. How about for the metal stuff. Figuring SF is/was the hotbed of thrash, I figure there should be a spot out there. Lemme know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphajerk Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 start at amoeba (sf or berkeley). at the info counter they have a list of almost every record store in the bay area. its like a take out menu, you can take it with you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffernutter Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Take Out menu! Now thats fucking cool. My time will be limited out there as I'm only in town for 3 days (or less) and have a bunch of Corporate Meetings (eech!) but I want to check out what I can. Unfortunately there are no shows.
