    The very best of luck with the venture, hope the geekdom will come out of their shells and support you. However, if this is where you're setting up base then you might find it kinda hard to attract passing traffic.

    Myth and Magic was here, a better spot than those dead shops by the Texas carpark.

    Thanks for the replies guys!
    Nah, As Zuben said, The shop is on the 'Mainstreet' of lower Irishtown. Across from the Sound Factory. The Texas carpark is pretty dead all right. I think that shop "Attitude" has been closed for about 4(?) years.

    Seems to be, anytime I pass the shutter's down. Think the stock that was in the window is gone too, just a poster left if I had seen it correctly (was driving by).

    I was really hoping this place took off. But it's always seem to be closed. I mange to get in once and the power went off in the shop. It seems to be phone covers and that type of stuff etc...shame.
