Tower Records To Be Liquidated starting 10/7

Oh, there's also about 50 copies of the last Rhett Miller album!

Whats the selection at the Fairfax Tower these days… still a couple imports i'd like to get my mitts on and was wondering if it was worth the drive.

There was still plenty of porn when I was there.

i not enough of a man to fully appreciate porn…

Spent $43 at the Rockville Tower yesterday and got:

The Walkmen - Hundred Miles Off
Twilight Singers - Powder Burns
Guillemots - Though The Windowpane
Essex Green - Cannibal Sea
Most Serene Republic - Underwater Cinematographer
The Streets - Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living
Destroyer - Notorious Lightning and Other Works
Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere
Enon - High Society

Though I have no idea when I'm gonna get to listen to all these…

Fiancee just called me and was taking orders from the Foggy Bottom locale…

James Dean Bradfield - The Great Western
Nada Surf - Let Go
Rhett Miller - The Believer
"My Summer Story", the straight-to-video/DVD sequel to "A Christmas Story," which (apparently?) includes my in-laws-to-be and their 1932 Buick in the cast.

No Band of Horses, Beck, or Essex Green left.

fairfax tower has a good selection of imports left…that is if you like girls aloud or sugababes.

All of these reports back on purchases sound like weekend trips to Amoeba.

Was it the prophet Sania who said, "Man I feel like a woman"? Lettuce meditate on this.

At all the Tower's there were plenty of those Tower exclusive Napoleon Dynamite tins for 34.95 with the exclusive T-shirt inside. Did anyone bite?

Wait until Saturday and that will be the 2006 tin of popcorn for some poor unsuspecting soul.

Was that you I saw buying the talking Napoleon Dynamite action figure in Rockville today?

No.

a dc store clerk told me 12/20 was the last day. it also looks like they took away some of their stock. when the reggae went from upstairs to downstairs there was nothing left. i find it hard to believe they sold that much in a couple of days. they are probably saving it for the internet.
