There’s so much great music from the 70’s, including a ton of bands and artists that never broke through. I’ve bought quite a few records as blind buys that have turned out to be hidden treasures and some of my favorites now.
My kids grew up in a house full of records and record players. I also took them to drive-in movies every summer. They grew up thinking that those things were all normal and what everybody did. It wasn’t until they were teenagers that they grasped how records and drive-ins weren’t the norm.
We dragged out a record player and a few dozen records just before Christmas..was really fun...connected it to a powdered speaker
Several years ago, I bought a crate full of Christmas records for $25. There were some great one in there. We pull them out every year and play them.
Here, you’re carded to make sure there’s no yellow stripe on your driver’s license. If so, you’re banned from purchasing alcohol due to a DUI.I got carded a few weeks ago buying wine! I had a hat on so my hair was covered. The Grey's would have definitely given me away!
If anyone likes old school metal, a few bands that never made it, but should have.
You guys have seen more snow this winter than we have in MA. Last three storms that hit you didn't give us thee inches total.
For polar bears.
I paid through the nose to get my hands on that first Sir Lord Baltimore record, but it was well worth it.
I don’t wanna derail the thread, so I’ll IM you more.
We used to go behind the drive-in, park and then walk across a field where someone dragged the backseat of a car and watch the movie.
We were supposed to catch Blackberry Smoke last night in CLT, but our youngest was sick and wife had to sell tix
Where is that? I assume not us....norway? Sweden?
I think Alaska.
I’ve had to explain to my kids why some double albums have sides 1 and 4 on one disc and sides 2 and 3 on the other. The concept of stacking records and then flipping the stack is pretty foreign to people new to vinyl, because I don’t think that style of turntable is very easy to find anymore. Probably for the best due to the scratching like you mentioned.
Smart!

Drive ins bring back memories. As most drive ins were going out of style, there was one that only opened Saturday night for families and we took the kids with us. They would fall asleep in the car and we enjoy a movie without babysitting. Now you can get a big screen TV and do this at home.
We have a drive in that actually is still open in the town next door!!!!
Good morning! I hope you had a good night's sleep and ready to enjoy the day. It is cold and windy in SE Michigan. Have any plans for the day?
Oh a couple things. Study a bit, move some decor around in my house....
