The Brooklyn Bowl venues in New York, Las Vegas, Nashville, and Philadelphia have detailed the collaborations and events they have planned to celebrate Record Store Day, set to take place tomorrow, April 23. In addition, each venue is partnered with a local record store: Rough Trade & Rock and Soul (NYC), Creep Records (Philly), Grimey’s (Nashville), and Zia Records (Las Vegas) to help drive their audiences to stores on Record Store Day. 

Tonight the Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, N.Y., will host a pre-Record Store Day event featuring the reunion of Handsome Boy Modeling School and a pre-show conversation with Sam Calagione (Founder of Dogfish Head), Carrie Colliton (co-founder of Record Store Day), and Alex Vitoulis (representing Rock & Soul Records).

On Record Store Day, Dogfish Head will host happy hours before the evening’s Record Store Day performances. To encourage fans of the Brooklyn Bowl to buy records, Dogfish Head will also take care of the first beer of anyone that shows proof of a Record Store Day vinyl. The happy hours will take place from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Las Vegas, Nashville, and Philadelphia and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in New York. During the happy hours, Audio-Technica will deliver an analog experience by an Audio-Technica turntable and phono cartridge and will be giving away an Audio-Technica AT-LP60X turntable. 

The events for the respective venues are as follows: Brooklyn Bowl N.Y. Dogfish Head Presents: Songs in The Key of Purple: A Stevie + Prince Tribute with Atomic Funk Project; Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia Dogfish Head Presents: The Darkness; Brooklyn Bowl Nashville Pigeons Playing Ping Pong; Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas, Dogfish Head Presents Emo Night Brooklyn featuring a DJ Set by Ryan Key of Yellowcard.
