New Retail Counter in OC -
You can now go into Mercy Music located in the lovely city of
Garden Grove, CA and pick up Lawless Street merch. The main
cross street is Brookhurst. They deal in all manner of
musical instruments and offer lessons on just about any of
them. You can pick up all the merch that Lawless Street
carries including scootering magazines, reggae magazines &
books, pins, stickers, patches, vinyl and more. It has just
been set up so not everything is available yet but it will
be. I plan to carry shirts, pint glasses, soul, punk, 80's,
etc. all relating to scootering, ska and the very cool. It is
only one display but if there is enough support and sales are
steady then we have more than enough room to expand. So
please drop by and check out the stuff:
