Agreed - don't limit yourself to local folks. I often travel for tattoos.

Possibly altered. But you can't deny this person's love of AC/DC.

Reply to Best record shops in Pittsburgh? by spencergar
Jerry's is great if you are looking for interesting/weird/strange stuff. i love goin there and looking through everything, but if you are only here a day and are looking specifically for metal/punk stuff, I wouldn't recommend it.
Hit up the Attic for sure. Great selection there. (Plus they still have a few Vicious Blade lp's in stock!)
Preserving Underground out in New Kensington is sorta cool, and specializes in punk/hardcore/metal, but it's a short drive outside of town.
Also take the time to see Pleasant Dreams in Polish Hill.
Government Center is decent, but it's mostly new reissues and things like that. Not really my thing, but you may find a few things there.

There is nothing here that even comes close to Ted's Hot Dogs, but once in a while you can find Sahlen's at Kuhn's Markets.

I gotta say, having the "Cro-Mags" playing in the basement of Preserving Underground is cool and all, but it really shows where the local music scene has been heading in the last few years (especially when it comes to this genre of music.)
A year or two before the pandemic, Harley Flanagan came here with his solo band - which is pretty much the same as the Cro-Mags these days. Anyway, they played the second floor of the smiling moose down on the south side and it was PACKED and a ton of fun and a ton of energy. What you would expect from a show of that calibre.
Now, Harley finally has the Cro-Mags name again, and he's playing the basement of Preserving Hardcore. A 20 minute drive outside of town. No way that venue can hold as many people, and it's not really that big. Not complaining, but a LOT of the good venues have shut down of the last few years. I appreciate Preserving Underground doing what they can to step up, but I hope we see some others popping up soon. Honestly surprised this show is not at Cattivo - or even Sprit, where Jon Joseph's version of the Cro Mags played once with eyehategod.

Nothing close to Whataburger here. A few Culver's in Ohio, which are pretty good but a little over an hour away.
Jerry's Curb Service in Beaver is pretty good though.

I think the answer to this is a Vinnie Pie from "Vincent's Pizza Park".

NM, I'm thinking that the old Whole Foods location is better suited anyway.
