And one of our legacy performers,Joe Janci,will be here to play his songs and he’s a joy.
You want joy?You can handle joy.

Thanks to Hackettstown’s indie retail watchdog which oversees us merchants in our metropolis for making our shop the spotlight business of the week this week.
It’s been a hard century so far to be in small business so recognition is beyond gratifying.Thank You.

Independently owned company /artist and really well done.
It’s Mothers Day weekend so no live music on Saturday .
A new shipment arriving today with super duper new releases
It’s easy math.

It’s not a gatefold reissue so you won’t get a peep at Joni in her Birthday suit with ocean water as her co star in the photo.
What you will get if you stop before 6pm is some righteous good music and if you’re good,a pack of Smarties or two.
Open till 6pm today.
So come on over to our house,we’ll be glad to keep you company.
Call or text to 908-914-7582 for an interpetive dance on what I just wrote.
