Tropical Heat Dome Squad will be at Mobius! This Saturday - April 12th at 11am! RSD!






We are excited to announce we will have Leon City Sounds and Crown Vic doing DJ sets in our parking lot from 11am-3pm!

We have once again teamed up with our good friends Bluejacket Brewery to brew a beer for RSD. This year we collaborated with HiFi TexMex BBQ to bring you “Soul Slabs” a New Zeland-Style Pilsner w/ Rakua Hops 4.5 abv.
This will be available in our parking lot from 11am-3pm and will be served up by our amazing friends High Side along with a few tasty menu items!

Scott White has once again knocked it out of the park with a sick RSD poster design! We will have a limited number of these available for sale on RSD.

Record Store Day (RSD) is a first come first served in-person event. No holds or reserves.

We open at 9am on Saturday 4/12/25.
