The Virgin Megastore at Sunset and Crescent Heights will be closing its doors at the end of month. While it was never my favorite record store in town, I did stop in periodically to peruse their vinyl section (weird imports that were often inexplicably on sale). Currently all the regular priced merchandise is 30% off. I stopped in last weekend and picked up a few things. They were pre-selling that new Radiohad LP (on sale for $12), I found that first Panda Bear on LP for $7 (it's getting pretty hard to find) and filled out some holes in my Lee Hazlewood collection. They've also got one of the better Blu Ray selections in town. Even if it's a chain store, and they have another location down the street at Hollywood and Highland, I still hate to see it go.

My first job in Los Angeles was at that Virgin Mega Store. I was working two separate internships and pulling nights as a sales associate there.
Sad to see yet another CD store bite the dust but not sorry to see that one go. Their prices are pretty insane.
