Schoolkids Records to start serving beer today

Back when Schoolkids Records was first talking about the move from Hillsborough Street to Mission Valley, other than the added space that the new location would provide for in-store performances, one of the much talked about new features was the onsite bar.

That feature will go into effect at 5:30 p.m. today, April 23, when Schoolkids Records will tap their first keg and start serving beer in the store. So as you peruse what remains of Saturday's Record Store Day inventory, checking out the latest releases or just enjoying the company of other music fans, you'll be able to wet your whistle while you do so.

The store has two in-store performances this week. Singer-songwriter Leif Vollebekk will play at 4pm on Thursday, April 24, and Jon Langford will play at 3 p.m. on Friday, April 25.
