Free, Awesome and limited

We’ve started to get questions about the Nike-sponsored shows and the free passes relating to said shows that we’ve been known to disperse.

Well, we have some answers for you!


*ALL PASSES TO THE NIKE FREE SHOWS ARE IN FACT FREE. Yes. You read that correctly, 100% free range grass fed free!


*Passes are limited, so it’s one per person and first-come, first-served. Now, read that one more time. Write it on your hand, recite it back to yourself, make it one with your soul because there will be no exceptions to this. Everyone who has come to wait in line is of equal importance, so please do not disrespect the people who actually dragged themselves out of bed to come wait by getting into line a second time, begging, or trying your luck at bribery. We do not care that your best friend/partner/cousin/monkey couldn’t make it. No, you cannot have a second one.  And no, your baby cannot have one either.


*Passes will be available the day of the show, and only the day of the show, starting when we open on said day of show (10 am).  Show schedule as follows:

+Thursday September 9th: Ra Ra Riot / Phantogram / Washed out (3:30pm doors, 4:30pm show time)
+Friday September 10th: Black Lips / Surfer Blood / Male Bonding (3:30pm doors, 4:30pm show time)


*Please do not call about passes on the day of the show. They go super fast, so if you’re calling it is probably too late.

*Getting your pass is only step #1 of the show-going process. Passes do not guarantee entry–you will need to wait in line at the venue for that, which will also be letting people in on a first-come, first-served basis.

*If you have a wristband and would like to attend one of the free shows, you do not need to pick up a pass. You can find out more about the wristbands here.

Ok. You’ve been warned. Lineup for the fest, including the free shows, can be found here.

Enjoy the glory that is sound!


Please DO NOT CALL OR EMAIL US about these passes--all necessary information can be found in this post. The power of the internet is a beautiful thing, and in this case, following the rules will get you far.



Ok. We love you.

Be an insider, check out The Outsiders- CQ

Here at Jackpot Records we are proud to present you with a reissue of the amazing album CQ by Dutch Psych/Garage rockers The Outsiders.


JPR7109_HI-RES_COVER_ART



“CQ” spans R&B, spacey experimental numbers, folk rock and a revved-up kind of punk that pre-dates the angular moodiness of what would become the no wave/post punk sound a decade later. This unpredictable stylistic approach, when coupled with across-the-board amazing songs, make this one of the masterpieces of late 60’s psychedelic garage rock, and a cornerstone album of the genre. Pressed in a vinyl-only limited edition, this deluxe reissue is replicated precisely with gorgeous silver foil cover art. Extensive liner notes include a 2009 interview with lead guitarist Ronnie Splinter about the recording of the album and an exclusive introduction by Mike Stax, editor of Ugly Things magazine.

Available for pre-order for 14.95! Orders will ship on or before September 1st.

Our Record label is also stepping into the realm of new local releases like Dave Depper doing Paul McCartney's RAM, Sam Coomes side-project CROCK, and a full length by Ylang Ylang. While our record label is excited to venture into this new local arena, we are continuing with our fantastic line of reissues as well and we have lots more on the way!

BLUE GIANT!



Catch BLUE GIANT live at our downtown store on July 14th at 6 pm! They'll be playing 1/2 of their new album, and it should be exciting.

And that lovely photo above? That's the poster you'll get free with the purchase of their new album! While supplies last, of course.
