A longtime customer of _heavymetalshop, which celebrated its 35th anniversary Sunday, says the people at the store “make everybody feel like they’re family.'
Outside the shop, Kevin’s friends helped put up tents to combat the record high heat. There was a face painting station outside, where people could get spray tattoos of the store’s, and a butterfly in honor of Angie, who had a large tattoo of one on her right bicep.
“You walk into this place and you definitely know she’s still here,” Koch said of Angie. “She’ll never leave Kevin.” Kevin Kirk, right, owner of Heavy Metal Shop, poses for a photograph with his brother, Bion Kirk, during the Heavy Metal Shop's 35th anniversary, Sunday, July 17, 2022.“I knew that he excelled at what he did,” Bion said. But Bion said he didn’t anticipate seeing so many people showing their love and support.
Local artist Morgan Snow performs during the Heavy Metal Shop's 35th anniversary party in Salt Lake City, Sunday, July 17, 2022. Snow opened the day’s performances with an acoustic country/Western set whose intimacy fit the setting, where the stage takes up most of the room. It’s a venue that forces people to stop, be still, and just listen — and encourages a wide variety of musical styles, beyond the screaming metal the store’s name suggests.
