"borders"*watchung branch*

(‘1511 US route 22”)
(‘watchung’ / ‘NJ’)

*closed*
(as of ‘april 2011’)

(“borders group” filed for bankruptcy in ‘february 2011’)

(announced that they would be closing 200 stores)
(including 4 NJ stores)

(officially ‘defunct’ on ’28 september 2011′)
(cheryl lynn’s 57th birthday)
(my final season @ “watchung underground)
(the onset of ‘autumn’)
(“back to school”)

(“borders” replaced by “stein mart”)

.

(the first ‘borders bookstore’ opened in 1971)
(‘tom’ and ‘louis’)
(‘the borders brothers”)

(‘september 2006’)

mike pellagatti encouraged me to perform @ their open mic one weeknight

(i recall playing “get back”)

(and maybe “big barn bed”)

(this being ’round the peak of my ‘mccartney phase’)

(which soon transitioned into a closer listen to the ‘beach boys’)

(i remember the brian wilson biography @ borders)

(wasn’t a confident performer then)

(told ‘marta blumberg’ that i managed to make $10 selling CDs there)

(that was a lie)

(fuck her…)

(why should i have felt compelled to justify my music to an ‘atheist church organist’ anyway?)
