House of Music SF. I believe she opens the doors at 10, I think. She is super nice - genuinely. You will enjoy your visit.

I visit today 3 places.

Audio Vision - Randolph got a problem with frontal windows as you know and his headphones are located exactly near, so I intended to listen Abyss headphones - no luck.

House of Music - they don't have speakers which I intended to listen so I've been in store maximum 15 minutes.

Then I visit Rasputin (records store) and found plenty interesting stuff - mostly new age music + 2 jazz CD with unbelievable prices (0.95 - 5.95 USD).

Thanks for the link to Amoeba Records, may I will visit tomorrow, I am not sure, 'cos I run today like a crazy horse (Powell Station bart - Audio Vision - House of Music - Rasputin: all by walking).

San-Francisco is interesting City, I made plenty photos.

Too far? Buses, walking or muni is not a problem. Plus, Haight St. is just a hop-skip-and-jump from Golden Gate Park.

Oh, if you get a chance, visit:
Lucas Arts
1110 Gorgas Ave
San Francisco, CA 94129
Presidio

I received a personal invite to see the viewing of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull there before it hit theatre's. It was awesome. Talk about a true THEATRE EXPERIENCE! Also, Great Swag EVERYWHERE. Lots of security, but they may have tours.
