Have you ever been to Wax Trax? And if so, what are your thoughts on the shop? If you haven't, does it look like a place you'd visit while in Denver? Let me know that or anything else that comes to mind in the comments below.

I've been going to Wax Trax since the mid 80's. I don't live in Denver, but I go there whenever I'm in town. I was turned on to this set of stores when a record store employee in El Paso, Texas told me he worked at Wax Trax before moving to El Paso and told me to stop by when I went to Denver. He later moved back to Denver and started working at Wax Trax again. The next time I went, I asked for him and they said he had passed away, But they were so good, they had a picture of him behind the counter. Great Place.

I worked at WAX TRAX for about a year in the early 80s. Dave and Duane were wonderful, the whole staff was fun, the job was a lot of work, but worth it. My favorite store became my job for a while!

went to HS in the suburbs of denver in the mid 90's and to university in boulder in the very early 00's. WAX TRAX played an instrumental part of my musical evolution when first getting into punk and hardcore. nearly everyone in "the scene" had some affiliation with the shop and i've got great memories of hanging with friends that worked at both the downtown and hill (boulder) stores.

That was a great show, mate. Those guys seem really cool. I'd love to go drinking with them and hear lots more of their anecdotes!

That was really well done. The fact you had to work around their busy day I think added to the charm of the video.

Love this type of video Matt, great job! What a fantastic old school record shop. If you're complaining about the heat and wearing layers, you've only got yourself to blame!!😂

Awesome video, MGP! WAXTRAX rules. I visited this record store a couple years ago when I drove up there from Albuquerque to see Nitzer Ebb over at the Oriental Theater. I even took a selfie in front of that awesome mural! 😃🤘

I went to wax Trax in summer of 92 before Lollapalooza 2 also from Albuquerque, the metal section was so insane I spent all the $ for Lollapalooza at wax Trax! And hadda bum food and drink from friends, but got some shit you just couldn't find in Alb, Merlin's was good but compared to wax Trax, nah

Very nicely put together. I like how you care about the content you put out, so many don’t and then wonder why they are ignored

I really enjoyed that video. I love record stores. When ever I visit a new city, I always research the record stores and visit them.

@andreascott1892 3 жыл бұрын

I have always loved record stores as well. Sometime in the late 80's my dad said I needed to take time off my regular job and visit as many stores as possible and then write a book. Thinking back, I should have done that.
