The Music Store
There are a lot of stores I considered for this list. I mentioned the grocery store--and stick by that--but there's also the book store, the hardware store (once recommended to Chip), the shoe store, the "paraphernalia" store, even the porn store. You can see a lot of hot chicks at any of them (Unless your porn store is Miracle Video, in which case you'll only see trash and utility truck drivers) but the music store is the only one that belongs on this list. Why? Because if you meet a woman over music, you're halfway to the sack. With all due deference to Steely Dan, the girls always care what's on, and the right music can be the difference between, "Gee, nice place you've got here," and "I wanna f--- you in that chair!" And it's not just for her, it's for you, too. You know what certain songs can do to your wood. And if your music tastes aren't compatible, it's never gonna work, anyway. You won't like everything she likes and vice versa, but if you can't learn to like, or at least tolerate, 40-60 % of her music, give it up now, because sooner or later the cumulative irritation at her tunes will eventually push you over the edge.
So what better place to check out her pedigree than at the music store. Here you get to see not just what she has now, but what she's considering, and you've always got an automatic place to start: you know the band, you don't know the band but you want to, you went to the concert, you missed the concert. And the conversation can just flow from one band to another, so there's not that "what do we talk about after the first topic dies?" moment.

Advantages: All the kids are at home downloading music. If nothing else, you can always buy an album.
Disadvantages: It's very easy to get distracted and just end up buying the album instead of talking to her.
Classic pick-up Lines: "Baby, let's put the x in sex." "Let's kick some bass behind closed doors." "Baby, I'm hot just like an oven, I need some lovin," "Would you be mine?" etc.

Did you mean "mood" or "wood."
I suppose both can work.
"Baby, you should see what this song does to my wood!"
And let us not forget about one of the rare and exotic creatures of the world - the hot girl who works at the record store!! Sometimes too formidable a foe, like the hot bartender with a foul mouth and a nubile body, the cute hipster with the Tina Fey glasses and Pixies record collection is truly a challenge for any man looking to find love in the time of vinyl!
Yeah, there's a gal who works at both Love Garden AND the Replay. We can only assume she's the hippest person on the planet, right?
Well, we can definitely say that she's a fan of music, booze, and cats. So far, so good!
