Thank you for your contribution. You've taken a huge step to making Povo the "word on the street,"
and we appreciate it very much. Because of the complexity of the "wiki text" and code that can be used
on Povo, in order to edit this section in the future you must click the "edit" button to the right of the section

Diskovery is an eclectic cd/record album/bookshop located at the corner of Washington Street and Montfern Street in beautiful downtown Oak Square in Brighton, MA. Diskovery had been located in Allston Center and was a pivotal place for students, musicians and book lovers to stop in, have a look at some books, listen to good music and pet up the nice kitty cats in the store. It moved to Brighton due to rents. Run by an eccentric Asian lady Yolanda, this is a unique place like nowhere else in the city.
There are books, records, magazines, and cds stacked as high as they can possibly go. She could probably fill a store twice the size with all the stuff she's got. A great place to get lost on a free day. Loquito, the cat, will sometimes keep you company as you hunker down among the stacks and hunt for treasure. Yolanda can help you sort through the chaos (how she remembers what's in there is beyond me); she's known for discounting merchandise, especially if you purchase a few items. Great selection of used SF and fantasy paperbacks. The owner is intensely knowledgeable about 20th century music and literature so feel free to ask her for help. Trust her recommendations!
Graffiti is a place for quick notes. Know the hours of a business but not sure where to put it? Did something just happen at this place? Leave some graffiti.
Sometimes street view does not point exactly to the right place. You may need to "drive around" a bit.
