Tower Records to be liquidated

Tower Records to be liquidated

Tower has sucked for at least a decade - perhaps longer - and I haven't set foot in one for a couple of years, but still, this is kinda sad. Tower Records was where I used to go to get all the cool and weird music I listened to in high school. The Imports/Indie section was the Friday night haunt. But then, they went all Wherehouse with the neon and the only carrying the latest hits and the not letting the employees get stoned at the register and the taking music off the stereo when a customer complained and, well, the actually giving a shit when a customer complained...That's not Tower at all.
And now they've been liquidated.
Good night, funny man.
