Anyhow, nearly once a day, some one would come in looking for "chakra" music. To this day, I have no idea what that means, but I would go through a bit in which I would ask if they meant "Chakra The Monkey" by Peter Gabriel or "Rufus and Chakra Khan". Similar to your "Dave" story, it made me briefly happy enough not to weep openly over how much I was making an hour.</p> @TheContrarian: Somewhat related: I used to manage a record store that sold a bunch of new age music to the entitled class.

Meaning Dave Matthews Band.

I did have fuun with it, though. “David Lee Roth is doing another solo tour? Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics? Dave Thomas, inventor of Wendy’s?” I’d ask with faux-earnestness.

Good times.

Well, not really. But it helped my 20s go by.
