Monday I found out that Tower Records stays open past midnight on Mondays in order to sell the Tuesday releases early.
So, I trucked on up to Tower arriving at 11:50. At 11:55 an employee directed everyone into a line "behind the chain". While we waited for what seemed like much longer than 5 minutes, they played the new Slayer album (or maybe an old one) which was also being released the 27th. Ughhh!
When I got to the counter at 12:10, (I was 6th in line), I said, "One Monster, please." To my dismay, the guy handed me a Slayer CD! I corrected him and he realized that what I had meant and apologized. I paid the dough and got out of there. I considered telling him that Slayer sucked and I would never buy anything by them, but the guys in the line wearing leather scared me! :)
