The Chameleons - September 2017

coolest day at the shop... ever... i've been following The Chameleons since 83 when my brother Richie sent me a letter while he was living in NYC telling me i needed to find this band. The game changed that day when i went to Wax Trax Records and bought the record Script of the Bridge.  Now, all these years later To have Mark Burgess now touring under Chameleons Vox come to Denver to play and actually come to our store!! This was a Dream come true and to share this day with Pam, Rich, Mark and all my best friends.. - the day could not have been more special (missed you tim)

Nostalgia

This record collection we have from the Chameleons is full of rarities.  We photographed it and posted on MySpace back in the day.  The Chameleons MySpace admin copied our collection and posted it on their page giving us a shout out!  Now to have Mark come sign it all was a dream come true!

Someone's Banging At My Door, The Chameleons - Signature Wall

After three years of having Rock Stars at the new shop,  Mark's 'Chameleons' autograph will be the last on this door!

The Chameleons - Rock Star Boot

Mark from the Chameleons signed up this Dr. Marten boot for the collection. WE designed this for our 13th anniversary -  Dr. Martens allowed us to special order our design, we chose 13 large eyelets purple laces with red stitching on a black BEX sole,  you can't see it, but the side of the boot is embossed with our logo.  FashioNation had 144 pair made, this particular boot was purchased by a customer back in 2000 and just recently brought back to the shop to get added into our Rock Star Boot collection

Faith No More & Bad Brains Chuck Mosley - August 2017

Chuck 'fu*kn' Mosley - Faith No More & Bad Brains front man from back in the day stopped in for some new Doc's.  Friend of the shop Michele sent him in - cuz she knows what's up! He was a pretty Rad dude, and... He brought his own beer!

Faith No More - Rock Star Boot

We Care A Lot - about our boot collection and we were psyched to have Chuck from Faith No More sign this 14 eye DM up!  Another recycled boot from our past, long time customer left it with us after replacing them, he wanted them 'in the collection' well.. he got it! thanks!

Violent Femmes - July 2017

Two out of three ain't bad, we had Brian Richie & John Sparrow from the Violent Femmes in the shop before their big show at the Fillmore with Echo & the Bunnymen, No Gordon, he had something else going on..  But, these guys were Super Rad!!, we got Dr. Martens to set them up with Classic Doc's and they set us up at the show - i know.. same old story, but when you get to hang out with your heroes, it's always a good story!

Color Me Once

this was cool, Brian Richie brought this Rad little Polaroid camera and was taking photos around the shop, he left us with this one - Thanks!

Violent Femmes - Rock Star Boot

as i was saying one an earlier post, a customer brought this pair of rare Harlequin Dr. Martens boot back to us that he purchased in the early 90's - he asked us to add them to our Rock Star boot collection and to do something special with them..well.. the Violent Femmes on the right foot, the Cure on the left.  What a pair!!

Poptone - June 2017

This was pretty exciting! Daniel Ash, Kevin Haskins and Diva came to our shop to help us celebrate our stores 30th anniversary.  We had a huge turnout with all the Bauhaus, Love & Rockets and Tones on Tail fans. The band signed stuff and took pictures with everyone who showed - totally RAD!  They were in town playing at the Gothic theatre just up the street.  The show was 'an American Dream' come true.
