8:00pmAll Hits Sound System with DJ Simple MikeAll-Hits Sound System is your all-access pass to a night of rock in all its forms, played the way it was meant to be heard: on genuine vinyl. Join us as DJ Simple Mike digs deep into his remarkable record collection, spinning everything from college rock and post-punk to power pop, new wave, shoegaze, glam, garage, and way beyond. Expect left turns, deep cuts, familiar favorites, and plenty of “what is this and why do I love it?” moments. From synthpop shimmer to noise rock chaos (and a whole lot in between), this is a genre-hopping ride through the wild, weird, and wonderful world of rock. Come hang, grab a drink, and let the records do the talking.Rock

7:00pmLIVE: Trash Man (Release Show), Bleary, and Sick F*cksDeath comes for us all, but at least we get a few good records out of it. Trash Man celebrates the release of 'Direct Cremation,' the latest EP from Alex Mojaverian's darkly funny corner of the YK Records universe. Expect sharp hooks, blown-out guitars, and existential dread. Fellow YK Records artists Bleary bring their hazy, guitar-drenched shoegaze to the party, while Sick F*cks kick up some dust with a scrappy mix of jangle punk and garage rock. Sunday, November 15 at Vinyl Tap. FREE SHOW. Big love to YK Records for keeping things interesting (and mildly concerning).Rock · IndieNo cover

7:00pmBen Rice TrioGuitarist Ben Rice brings his long-running jazz trio back to Vinyl Tap, joined by Anson Hohne and Patrick Atwater. The three have been playing together for nearly a decade, building the kind of chemistry that only comes from years of listening closely and playing often. Expect a relaxed but deeply musical night of jazz, with swinging standards, thoughtful arrangements, and plenty of room for conversation between the instruments. This is jazz meant to be felt as much as heard. Settle in, grab a drink, and let the trio do what they do best.Modern jazz · Free jazz

Expect deep cuts, surprise tracks, and a night full of atmosphere, creativity, and expertly spun grooves.

8:00pmIn Between Days: Alt Music Video DJBlack eyeliner, flickering screens, and a bassline you feel in your ribs. In Between Days returns to Vinyl Tap like a transmission from another era, with Joe Lekkas of Palm Ghosts dialing in a full-spectrum alternative video night that leans dark, dreamy, and a little dangerous. New Wave, post-punk, shoegaze, goth, blog rock, indie sleaze. It’s all in there, stitched together from the early 80s through the mid-2000s. Part dance floor, part late-night screening, all atmosphere. Drift into it or give in completely. Expect icy synths, chorus-drenched guitars, shadowy visuals, and those perfect moments where the room locks in and nobody wants to break the spell. Come dressed for the mood or don’t. Just show up and let it pull you under.Rock · Indie
