We got to meet Midge Ure after his show at the Soiled Dove. We did a ticket giveaway and they hooked us with a great time at the show. He's a big part of our record collection with all he's done with Ultravox and Visage
The Cure - Lol Tolhurst
This just happened, Lol Tolhurst was at the shop - From The Freaking CURE!!! it was 'Just Like Heaven'. He was in town promoting his new book, Cured: The Tale of Two Imaginary Boys, Lol was at the Tattered Cover book store and headed over to our shop for some shopping.
Lol Tolhurst - Signature Wall
Lol Tolhurst signed a bunch of stuff for us including our Wall. He gave us the sweet "best store" autograph - we'll take that!
The Cure Records
Lol Signed a bunch of our Vinyl! All of our Cure albums and singles! including Japanese Whispers for our good friend Yvette at Lux De Ville
Lol Tolhurst on FashioNation Street
We set Lol up with some sweet Dr. Martens. He said he had this pair back in the day and always wanted to replace them, go figure we had the exact pair and size for him.. we kind'a rock that way!
The Cure - Rock Star Boot
Founding member of The Cure, Lol Tolhurst signed this Super cool and incredibly rare harlequin 8 eye Dr. Marten for our collection. He stopped in during his book tour for Cured: Two Imaginary boys. The Doc 8 eye boot was brought back to us by a customer who purchased it back in the 1990's - he asked us to do something special with the pair, I can't think of anything more Bad Ass than this!
Tears for Fears - October 2016
There has been many 'best days' at the shop - but this may top the list! Curt Smith and Jamie Wollam came to the shop. Never in a million years did i think we'd get the chance to have them in. With the wonders of Facebook, i sent Jamie Wollam a note (drummer since 2010) and boom! they came to the shop. TFF played Red Rocks on the 10/3 and they had a date to play in the Spring on the 5th so they had down time and wanted to see the city. We set them up with Dr. Martens. Curt Smith is a big fan of the brand and has been since he was a kid and he loved our selection. Finally deciding on a pair of 8 eye burgundy Vegan boots - not because he didn't wear leather but he loved the color!
Tears for Fears - Record signing
Knowing they were coming to the shop, I brought all my early TFF albums & singles to get signed. Curt was more than gracious in signing them - telling the stories about how the covers came about, who was on them etc.. So when you hear me play Tears at the club you know Curt had his hands on these records!
Acting on your best behavior with Curt Smith
Curt was really good sport. We do ticket giveaways for concert all the time at the shop and we had to draw a few names for the upcoming Pennywise concert. We asked Curt to do it on video and he was up for the challenge ... that was just a little fun!!!!
