PlayRecord Resident Drummer Helps out Leeds Metal Band, Mishkin

October 29th, 2010 by jonny

In house drum dude “Jonny-the-Blow” has been coming into work bleary-eyed this week. No, not from excessive partying but from cramming new songs into his head every evening for the last week and a bit to help out our friends and local ultimate-metal band, Mishkin.

Mishkin, are an up-and-coming Leeds band with plenty of following stretching throughout the UK. Jonny has been asked to help for a couple of gigs after their throne-sitting-bone-shaking-drummer boy Bradie, broke his hand in what was believed to be a drunken fall down some stairs.

PlayRecord hopes that Mr Bradie’s hand will be better soon and that our in house drummer, Jonny, will soon return to his usual early nights and bright eyed enthusiasm at work when the toll of rocking-out with a heavy metal band comes to an end.

Great pictures are only a pop(-up shade) away!

June 8th, 2010 by will

pop up shade header
Pop-Up Shades are LCD screen protective covers, which also double as glare guards. These sturdy and lightweight covers are easily installed (and removed), but most importantly help to protect a digital camera’s expensive LCD screen. When flipped up, the shade provides easier viewing of the display in bright sunlight.

Universal Pop-Up Shade for 2.5

The cover pops up to form a three sided canopy over the LCD to diminish glare and folds right back down when you’re finished. Even with the shade flipped up an optically clear plastic guards the LCD preventing damage to the screen.

Universal Pop-Up Shade for 2.7/2.8

The Universal Pop-Up Shade is designed to fit hundreds of cameras, both new and old. The Universal shade attaches to your camera by a non-residue adhesive.

The adhesive does not damage the camera when the shade is removed, nor does it leave behind any film. An optically clear plastic protects your camera’s screen, and the simple pop-up design allows for easy opening to block the glare.

The two-part design enables easy removal of the shade while keeping the clear plastic in place for protection. This shade is perfect for those with a Point-and-Shoot camera.SALE NOW ON

Currently available at playrecord.net are the Universal Pop-Up Shades for 3.0″ LCDs, 2.7/2.8″ LCDs and 2.5″ LCDs all available in either a silver or black finish. You can view these by clicking on the size that will fit your camera or view the whole range in our photography category.


In adition, all the pop up shades are on an amazing special offer price which can be seen in our special offers section of the website.

Cheers…..

Bigdog double bass drum pedal (pro)This, in our opinion, is up there with the likes of the Iron Cobra double bass drum pedal and it features the cool unique Bigdog blue finish footplate. Besides the cool look and great quality, the Bigdog Bass Drum Double Pedal (PRO) is also very affordable in comparison to the likes of the Iron Cobra.
