In Llandudno, Kavern Records and Videos was that place.

Andrew Morris said: "Used to visit Kavern Records Llandudno between lessons in Llandrillo College and flick through the CDs.

"Remember taking a punt on the new band that Dave Grohl had set up. Still have that CD but not sure if Foo Fighters ever amounted to anything."

Martin Williams, from Radar PR, said: "I worked in Kavern from 1997-1999. So many memories of the video store in particular.
