Beginning in April, TFC Records
will expand into a rehearsal space studio to serve bands in the Corpus
Christi area. Roger Guerrero, the founder of the long-running punk
label has been working on the project for several years now. In
February, he found a spot on the city's south side that seemed to be
ideal and so here we are.
The location is 5802-D Wooldridge Ste. #2, near Staples in between Holly and Saratoga. TFC Rehearsal Space will initially offer three 12x17 foot rooms with practice PAs and equipment closet rentals to store your band gear.
Eventually, TFC will grow to include two
additional 12x17 foot practice rooms and one 20x20 foot live room,
suitable for large-budget projects. Keep in mind that you will rehearse
in a climate-controlled, secured rehearsal facility; your mom's garage
this ain't!
In addition to space for your band to rehearse without fear of noise complaints, TFC
Rehearsal Space will also rent gear in case your amp goes on the fritz
or your crash ride is thrashed. There will also be plenty of
replacement supplies in case you forget a wire or your picks, break a
stick or need a battery,
And because TFC began life as a DIY record label, the entire TFC
catalog will be available as well as plenty of killer underground
punk/garage/hardcore/etc. titles you can't find anywhere else in the
city. Distros and mailorder outlets are encouraged to get in touch
ASAP.
