People talk about their iPhones/iPads etc.. I remember when people used to brag about their stereos with big *** speakers. I guess those days are gone for good unless we're talking about home theater systems. Anybody remember going to parties where the speakers were the size of coffins and the turntables kept skipping when everyone was jamming to Free Bird? Hey I'm not knocking modern technology, just reminiscing. Please no "get off my lawn" comments. hahahahaha

It's all in the ears of the listener that counts Dig. If it sounds good to one's ears then it's good music. That's why I never criticize someone's taste in music.

I remember how much of a bad *** you were if you owned a drone and could spy on your neighbors!

Love,

Does rape/murder imply a certain order of events thus making it the inverse of murder/rape? If so, then what of rape that causes murder?

Vinyl is currently the top-selling format for new music, up nearly 20% in sales since just last year with a steady increase over the past decade. Discogs just reported their 3 Millionth vinyl LP sold this year in August.

Lots of somebodies, somewhere, have some nice stereo systems, or at least a decent set of cans. Not as different as it may seem.

The only thing we feared in our neighborhood were the priest at the local catholic church. Hell, when we were kids we knew they were pervs.

Man, when we were kids, we were all obsessed with girls. Now people are just obsessed with Pokémon. I'm telling you guys, it's that damn tofu and soy!

Good point. I have 3 turntables and still buy vinyl, actually I never stopped collecting. I buy mostly from Acoustic Sounds but the local dealers sometimes have decent used LPs.

I have a buddy that keeps a booth full of junk at one of these little local mall, pseudo-flea market places and he says that record collections are all the rage right now with the estate auction/sale crowd. Said every other booth has a box or ten of vinyl and it's usually all good, clean, well-kept stuff - not what you'd expect to find. He said it's suddenly the best record store in town, lol.

I get the love of vinyl, I just don't know if I could stand listening to anything modern on it. Vinyl makes me think of, Pink Floyd, BOC, etc...

My grandpa left me a freaking awesome setup that he built in the 80s. Huge speakers, receiver, turntable, and cd player. My grandma told me he was excited to give it to me. He also left me about 100 opera and classical records. So I have over a 100 records and about 5 that I actually listen to.

Wish one of my grandpas left me something like that. Consider yourself lucky and enjoy!
