yeah, but you'll have more chances of finding crazy rare stuff at amoeba, not to mention the miles of cheap used cds. nod

One of our very own orgers works at Amoeba SF.. I think he said that guy from BJM has a new band now and just played recently...

I was just there and forgot how great some of the deals are! I can't believe I paid retail for Selmasongs when it was at Amoeba for $7!!! Great spot to get soundtracks too.. you can get used ones for $2 when all you really want them for is one song...

(Sigh) Amoeba is a little slice of heaven..
