Quick font indentification?

Here.

I get the feeling this one has to be pretty popular, but I know zero about fonts. Thanks in advance!

What The Font says Richmond Bold, with a drop shadow.

Not Richmond. Note the R and E.

Looks more like Neutraface Titling with some itsy bitsy serifs.

My money is on a custom design.

This is probably a custom job, even if they based it on a commercially-available font.
Here's the highest-resolution photo of the logo I could find.

Neutraface Titling with itsy bitsy (custom) serifs is exactly what I was coming here to say.

Best answer: I concur with the custom diagnosis. But there's no reason to believe they didn't start with Neutraface. It's Neutraface Text Bold. The 'M' is an alt.

Best answer: Here's a link for fire and anyone else outside the US so you can set your own sample and see for yourself. The 'S' was the giveaway.
