Free In-store with Sharks

Hoodlums is proud to present a last-minute in-store performance with Sharks, who are on tour with Social Distortion and Frank Turner (Friday and Saturday at the Marquee). It’s free and open to the public.

Come down Saturday afternoon at 4:30 and you can watch a special acoustic performance from this up-and-coming rock/punk band from the U.K. How special? The band didn’t even have an acoustic guitar with them (we’re getting them one).

We only have three days to promote this thing, so even if you can’t make it, anything you can do to help spread the word is appreciated. If you can make it, we look forward to seeing you. Don’t forget, if you want to see the full Social D/Frank Turner/Sharks show, get your tickets quick. Friday is already sold out.   Sharks on Facebook.  Sharks on Twitter.

Hoodlums’ Best Music of 2011/Year in Review

Happy New Year to all of our customers and friends.  2011 was a good year for Hoodlums, and we thank each and every one of your for your support.  Thanks also to the musicians that gave us so much awesome new music to listen to in 2011.  Without all of you guys and girls putting your heart and soul into writing, playing, and recording such truly inspiring art for us… we wouldn’t have celebrated our 13th birthday in 2011 (or any birthdays for that matter).

So let’s talk about all of that great music, shall we?  The start of a new year is usually slow for new releases, so it’s a great time to look back at the prior year’s best… and then come down to Hoodlums and grab a new CD or LP (or three).  The hoodlums at Hoodlums are ready to share our thoughts on the subject.  You can read, scrutinize, or scoff at Steve (aka Record Store Geek), Kristian, and Andy’s Top 10 lists by clicking this link.

You can also check out Hoodlums Top-Selling 99 CDs for 2011 or Hoodlums’ Top-Selling Vinyl for 2011 by clicking here. Last but not least, you can find the Top 10 lists of our customers, our former hoodlums (The Hall of Famers), and the so-called professionals on our Facebook or Twitter feeds.  Enjoy (and thanks again).
