Hot Rats

[jedi_toaster]

Can anyone help in an arguement? When did Hot Rats open? My friend says it was 2000/2001 and I reckon it's been there a lot longer than that.

I would have said longer like, but I`m not sure TBH.

Shite, when did Durham Book Centre close?

[Aleem Dar]

Longer, can remember going in during my first year secondary school and that was 1998.

Aye. Been there for yonks. Well before 2000/01 anyway

edit: Wee gets in an argument about the length of existence of a little record shop btw?

Albeit at a different, near-by location, Hot Rats was open in 1996, but could have been open long before that.

I.e. I don't know when it OPENED, but i know 100% that it was OPEN in 1996.

Yep, used to be on the corner opposite where it is now, and Marty says he's moving again soon(the old uniform shop, next door)

It's been open longer than that.

I'm not sure how long, but I used to get gig tickets from there in the mid nineties

There's plenty lads on here who know Marty pretty well,haway one of yous must know.

It is a great little record shop, very reasonably priced - I sometimes think he sells stuff a little TOO cheaply though.
