Tower Records' London flagship store at Number 1 Piccadilly was taken over by Virgin Megastore in 2004. I don't know what the story is there, but I don't recall seeing any ads for Tower Records in the UK recently. 10:00, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Glasgow

The Glasgow Tower Records closed around 4 or 5 years ago. It still lies empty, next to Central Station.

[edit] Unsourced allegation

I removed this:

After new management reportedly stopped paying for merchandise, in August 2006 Tower Records had its supply of music from at least three major record labels shut off. This has led to industry speculation that the company was on the brink of liquidation.

That's the kind of statement people get sued over if untrue. Please do not re-add without a source. —Chowbok 04:17, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

It is probably insider knowledge. And the liquidation has come to pass. -- 66.171.76.140 05:26, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tower Books

There is no content regarding their Book stores...... Where would we find content like that to submit? --Antelope In Search Of Truth 18:56, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean? --Lukobe 01:09, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
There was a book area in many of the Tower Records locations. I believe most were shut down a few years before the liquidation began. --Nostaljack 02:11, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
  • tower.com exists but they don't have a way to call them. They screwed up my orders and I can't get them to change them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SoilMan2007 (talk • contribs) 21:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sunset Strip

So basically this means that the two Tower locations on the Sunset Strip will be completely shut down for good? That's kind of depressing, as they've been there for years. I cannot imagine Sunset without these two there. Arkanum 22:32, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Post-bankruptcy

The events described in this section have nothing to do with post-bankruptcy actions. Someone who knows something about this should fix this. SparhawkWiki 20:04, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
