We'd like to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out and supported us on Record Store Day on Saturday. It was overwhelmingly successful, much more than we had anticipated. So much so that we ran out of most freeby goodies in just a couple of hours! Unbelievable. Next year we promise to have more stuff. Thanks to everyone for their patience, love, support & uniqueness. There is no doubt that our store would not be what it is now if it were in another town. Asheville is the best. April 17, 2008 posted by: mark. Wanted let everyone know about some hot new happenings here at Harvest Headquarters. That's alot of H's. It'll be HHHott. First thing's first: RECORD STORE DAY IS THIS SATURDAY, APRIL 19th! In case you haven't heard or read about this, this Saturday we'll be taking part in the first annual Record Store Day, which is actually being held across the globe. For some info on what it's all about -- although you can pretty much assume what its motivations are -- check out www.recordstoreday.com Now, what does this mean for you? Well, over the past few weeks we've been receiving tons of freebie goodies to give away in honor of Record Store Day. If you stop by anytime on Saturday (11am-9pm), we'll have a bag full of free stuff for you. It's first-come, first-serve, so if we're out of them by the time you get here, we're sorry. So try to make it earlier rather than later. Here's a few of the items that you'll be able to grab... Univeral Music sampler LP (feat. Be Your Own Pet, Tift Merritt, Whiskeytown, etc.) Sony/BMG Music sampler LP (feat. Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, Pearl Jam, etc.) Rhino 2008 Calendar Sub Pop CD sampler (feat. Mudhoney, Wolf Parade, No Age, Flight of the Conchords, more) Matador CD sampler (feat. Stephen Malkmus, Cat Power, Mission of Burma, Times New Viking, more) Paste Magazine April 2008 issue Destroyer 7" MGMT 7" Suni McGrath (on Tompkins Square Records) 7" TONS MORE CD Samplers Stickers Posters etc... ALSO there are Record Store Day EXCLUSIVES for sale only at participating stores. These are almost all very limited in nature, and we definitely did NOT get that many, so be ready. This includes 7"s from R.E.M., Vampire Weekend, Breeders, Built to Spill, Black Keys, Death Cab for Cutie & Teenagers, as well as Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks 10" record. Pretty rad. ALSO, a couple of giveaways have reared their heads. We will draw a name at the end of Saturday night to win a FEIST autographed frame lithograph! ...and you can also enter to win a TOM WAITS-autographed, Grammy-nominated "People Take Warning" box set (for which Waits wrote the introduction). AND IN ADDITION TO ALL OF THIS...we're going to bring out as many posters (and trust us, we have billions of them) & whatever else we can find to give to ya. It helps us, it helps you, it helps the world. Ok, maybe not the whole world. But we hope you'll enjoy what you can have. The only requirement to get all this stuff is to stop by and buy something -- or, at the very least, look around and see if there's anything you want. I'm sure other stores will have more strings attached to get some of these free items, but we'd rather you have them then not, you know? We appreciate the year-round business that everyone in this community (and beyond) has brought us, year after year. Stop by on this new holiday and get a little somethin' back. See you Saturday!! now, moving on... BLACK ANGELS NEW ALBUM -- Come get it now! (sort of) If you know Harvest well, you know that we're not that knowledgeable with downloading. Not that we're hellbent against it -- just that we don't really do it. So a "download code" seems pretty foreign. However, some of you are a little more hip. You get it. And maybe some of you like the great Texas band BLACK ANGELS? If so, we've got a cool opportunity for you -- come in anytime and preorder their new album "Directions to See a Ghost" (hitting stores May 13th on Light in the Attic Records), pay the $12.99 now, and we'll give you a card with a download code to go home and grab it on the computer. THEN, any time after May 13th you will come back in here and you'll get your physical CD as well as a bonus 4-track CD of unreleased cuts. Sound good? and finally.... BUY 2 EARTH CDs, GET a FREE TICKET TO THEIR SHOW! For those interested in attending our upcoming show for legendary droners EARTH, we've got a special deal for a limited time: buy 2 EARTH CDs, attend the show for free! Choose from their three Southen Lord releases -- the recent "Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull" ($11.99), "Hex: or Printing in the Infernal Method" ($11.99) and "Hibernaculum" (cd/dvd, $13.99). What a steal! The show is taking place at the Rocket Club on Friday, May 2nd with Caethua opening. Unfortunately for some of you, the show is strictly 21+. Limited number of spaces available for this, just so you know... ok, see y'all soon!! April 15, 2008 posted by: matt & mark.
