Follow the vinyl breadcrumbs (I didn’t have time to make a better video, sorry…).

I recently heard about the Mass Vintage Days touring going on this weekend. Any vintage pilgrims are invited to come visit Root For Us when you hit , there’s plenty of room to stretch out and find some clean and very fairly priced wax.

(There might even be some vintage stock at Redi Dispensary next door if you ask nice.)

Funky, p***y, skronky, but never j***y. Another mix of clean goods for this steamy 4th of July weekend.

AC is strong, vibes are great, Redi Dispensary is next door. If you are in town and haven't blown off any limbs with illicit backyard explosions, I would love to see ya.

Open Fri - Sun, as usual. Free parking, too!!!!

Ah, the tender beauty of mid-priced '80s wax. We are rolling in it right now, across all the types, a nice mix of originals and super-clean reissues.

And we even sell other eras!!!! In short, the Just In bins are overflowing right now.

In case you hadn’t heard and can get to WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INST. in Worcester this afternoon, this looks like a lot of fun!

And whether you make it or not, we have a mini Smiths Museum here at the shop, with some cool deluxe box sets, CD bootlegs and even a poster or two that were dropped off by Anna Feder yesterday.

Beautiful day for a dig!
