I don't really hate GC as much as I hate the types of people I have to deal with when I'm shopping there:

1- 50 year old SRV wannabee who shows up to practice every time I'm there

2- 40 year old Kerry King/Slash wannabee who insists on being louder then the person mentioned above, as they're playing at the same time.

3- 60 year old baby boomer playing 'Eve of Destruction' (badly) on a Martin in the acoustic room while his life partner plays 'Hotel California' (badly) on a Taylor 12 string at the same time

4- 20 year old salesperson who tunes down to 'Q' and plays louder then number 1 & 2 above - again, all playing at the same time

5- 6 year old child left unattended in drum room and is possibly the next Keith Moon

6- Guy with ugly girlfriend who loudly belittles GC salesperson because they don't know they difference between the Digitech X-P300D and X-P300D+

We all have horror stories about the sales people not knowing enough, but really that's to be expected. When I buy a DVD player at Wal-Mart I don't expect the person to know everything about it.

I wish GC would end the 'try everything in the store' policy and limit the time people can play (and also limit the volume). Also, blasting different music from every department over the PA is not really a good enviroment when you're trying to decide what to buy

GC is what it is.

I liked MARS a little better, but we saw how they ended up.

Hopefully, Mitt Romney will turn GC around
