Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 29th. That is the day that Black Dots, Buffalo's newest record boutique, is set to have their grand opening. A week or two ago, I had heard rumblings of a cool new shop that specialized in classic vinyl releases and re-issues of hardcore, punk, metal and indie records. Upon visiting their facebook page, I was pleased to discover an assortment of albums by bands as varied as Chaos UK, Motorhead, T Rex, Bon Iver, and Touche Amore. It seems as if Black Dots has a bit of something for everyone and if you love hard music as much as I do, you may have just found a new home. The shop is located in the basement of 223 Lafayette Ave. on Buffalo's West Side and is open 12pm-8pm every day. Support your local record shop by stopping by for the grand opening, and buying something! This is one place worthy of our support.
