THE END OF AN ERA

I've already written about the Virgin Megastore in Times Square closing. But there were supposed to have been a few Virgin Megastores staying open.  Then, I heard that the Virgin in Union Square was closing down. Now it turns out that the entire chain is shutting down by the end of the summer.  It's a bummer - big chain record stores can't compare to the cool factor of smaller stores (most of which have closed down by now), but it still is depressing. I guess from now on, I'm going with Newbury Comics, or Amazon.
