Amoeba Music is such a cool store. I really feel so fortunate to have it in my city. I visit often, sometimes with a purchase in mind, but usually just to browse. I always come out with a shopping bag; the temptation is just too massive. If you don’t know what Amoeba Music is, I’ll give you the Cliff Notes rundown: It’s basically a ginormous independent music store that sells CDs, records, DVDs, VHS, posters, books, and other music paraphernalia. In addition, they have a bunch of fabulous in-store music performances, weekly DJs spinning, contests, and all sorts of events. When you walk in, it’s so big that they have actual printed out store maps available dictating where you can find anything you might be looking for. You could literally spend hours in the store (I definitely have).
