REST IN POWER VIRGIN MEGASTORE UNION SQ.



last night en route to see "HANGOVER" which was pretty rad, I tried to stop in Virgin Megastore for my last goodbye, unfortunately at 10pm Virgin was closed, the lights weren't even turned on..so sad.. So today I made it a priority to stop by since it was their last day..unforunately by the time I made it to the store I was greeted by the signs below :(
Goodbye Virgin Megastore Union Sq, you will be missed. I will no longer be able to hop in at 11:59 on Monday evenings for that new Tuesday release. Or just decide to wander around your huge retail space in search of something new to listen to.
The Dream is over =(

Last two purchases at Virgin Megatore (2 weeks ago at %50 off)
