Seriously, we used to make 
pilgramages to Tower on Sunset from O.C.  Our friend Frank got his transmission ruined by one errant knee on one packed-sub-compact trip...  And, no, Licorice Pizza did not sell pizzas...though I'd happily take orders from the crank-callers who tried to pull that when I worked there...I worked with Sub-Lagoon and Boss Radio at the one in Orange, and never learned to like licorice in the 5 years I spent there.  Sorry I wrote you guys up!

 Remember "you get it nicer at Licorice Pizza?"  I remember us saying "just be glad you get it at all" once we got bought by the big corporate idiots...
Tower gone = end of my vinyl-buying days makes a headline.  But now I only shop Amoeba anyway. *sigh* l love Amoeba...But Tower: RIP old friend.
