Mark Smith Used to work at Q Is For Choir and Anthem, but Discourage and Crossroads were my regular spots.

Yeah, there were definitely deals to be had depending on who was pricing on any given day. Michael, Josh or Davey were responsible for those as they didn’t give a shit/know anything about hardcore.
jeff g Discourage was cool. Is he still around? And was Green Noise at one point just called Dirtnap? I think so, but can't remember for sure. I know it moved a bunch but I liked that location on Clinton St. Ken is so nice.
Petey J. Cool jeff g jeff g And was Green Noise at one point just called Dirtnap? Never called Dirtnap. It was first opened by Ryder Green in Eugene, then he moved to Portland and sold it to Ken Dirtnap. Ken also operated a Green Noise label imprint for a while, but there was never a Dirtnap store.

Nathan Loud Randall I heard space @ Lloyd Center Mall is cheap. Some friends did a quixotic Halloween museum there for a few months last year. Total Mall Punk Records???
Bucky Bronco Nathan Loud There was a record shop at Lloyd Center for a couple or three months, but it bit the dust. Will anyone else step up?
