I remember R. Stevie Moore and his hat. I remember the Montclair Book Center, still the best book store I've ever been to, shame they got rid of the comic book dept though.
My sister lives in Jersey City and sells CDs to Tunes.
My first job was in Morristown, at Trukmann's Reprographics or something.

micawber's also rocks -- esp. since they did the extension. back in the day, the used section was the ENTIRE store.
princeton isn't hard to get to at ALL -- just take NJ transit from penn station to princeton junction, then take the "dinky train" from there into town. two hours at most (if that) from penn station.

Yeah, I heart Macawber's as well. I don't understand the love for PJ's, but I only went there once. Maybe I just got a bad batch or something.
I also think Small World Coffee is some of the best coffee I've had.
It'd also be fun to picnic at Grounds for Sculpture if it weren't getting colder now (and also I don't know if they're still open this late in the year).

and Cafe Soundz! How many times to I have to mention it? That's how I met Morgan Geist and James Plotkin. And it's still there.

The Hollow, right near Headquaters mall.
I'm flying home to NJ for 2 days tomorrow; I can't wait to stop & get some real bagels for breakfast, and then drive to the next strip mall for some Dunkin Donuts coffee. And take my 2.5 year old neice to a diner for lunch! She already understands that you only ever order breakfast food and the toast has to arrive soaked in butter and it's important to sit around & talk for a few hours. She's a big chatterbox, so she's down with it. I think we're probably going to the Chester diner.

(disco fries was my name on friendster!)

I never really liked this place, although it was the go-to "indie" store in the area. Did you ever go to The Flip Side in Pompton Lakes, Dan? That was my source for thrash and hardcore cassettes in the late 80's.
Best NJ record store not yet mentioned on this thread is Vintage Vinyl on Rt. 1 near Edison. Used to have a ton of cheap vinyl in the back, these days the stock is not as impressive but it's still a good store.
Did anyone ever go to the converted diner in New Brunswick (on French St) that was a record store? It was only vinyl--the place was a mess and the owner was pretty eccentric. Good finds in there, though. I have no idea if it's there anymore, I doubt it.

I never liked Vintage Vinyl all that much, mostly just because I got a weird vibe from the people there like I wasn't buying the "right" kind of music. There was also Curmudgeon off Route 27, which is now gone as well.

Last christmas when I was back in Jersey visiting family, I got to introduce my wife and my parents to disco fries -- an overwhelming success!

Never went to Flipside.
Nobody's mentioned Planet X yet, a techno store in New Brunswick during the early days of techno stores.
