Crowbar Record Fair

Overview

Is there anything better than giving your favourite record a spin, then setting back to take in its sonic glory with a drink in your hand? If you like music and booze, not much, really. If something comes close, though, it'd be shopping for vinyl while taste-testing whiskey.

First, you rifle through crates looking for albums to buy or swap — or, you join the more the 20 stalls already locked in and bring your own to trade. Then, you head to the bar to sample some smooth spirits from Jameson. Repeat, reverse and interchange the above at your leisure.

It's all happening at Crowbar on January 21, and while getting in early is recommended, this isn't the type of record fair that requires you to get up with the birds. Just drop by the Valley bar from 2pm with a hunger for building your collection and a thirst for brown beverages. That's your Saturday afternoon sorted.
