Boston record shops

Aside from Satellite Records, are there any other dance music vinyl shops around Boston or its suburbs? Anyone know of some names?

The Virgin MegaStore closeby has a vinyl section in the electronica room.

Yeah I checked it out, but I could only find Deep Dish - Flashdance. Everything else was crap :P

By the way, I notice in your profile you're from Waltham. I'm going to Brandeis University in Waltham next fall as a freshman. Are you a resident or a student as well? We should definitely meet when I'm up there :P

I do go to college, but not Brandeis. I go to Middlesex Community College (the Bedford Campus).

Ah ok cool. What year are you? Do you hit up the clubs in Boston? What do you recommend? :P

I'm in my sophomore year at MCC. As for clubs in Boston, Avalon's wicked nice.

Is it 18+? How about other clubs in Boston? And also, in what section of Boston are they located?

Are any of these places in "shady" areas by chance? I doubt Vertigo is because, as you put it, it's right near Fanueil Hall.

By the way, do you have any record store recommendations GUBostonDubs?
