I cried when I lost all my 45s in a flood :( Lost those and a couple yearbooks from junior high, had them stashed away and forgot to grab them when we got evacuated. :(

Pretty sure my kids woulda gotten a kick out of them, they were pretty excited when we found books on record at a garage sale. The whole Gremlins series on record, too bad we don't have a record player!

I'd love to see them both in concert together :) I remember being so excited when a friend and I managed to convince BSB security to let us into a sound check lol

I've started using tapes again - my car cd player broke so I was left with only the tape player. I hunted out some old mixed tapes from the early 90's. I still remember all the words :)

Haha..that's funny!! I still have all my burned cds. I got all the songs off of Napster, back when it was free. Ahh..the good days.

Our car doesn't even have a tape player. It has a cd/dvd player..and a connector for the ipod.

Isn't it funny that 8 tracks, cassettes, & VHS tapes are at antique stores now? I still have a few VHS tapes. Titanic, Grease, & Dirty Dancing.

i remember getting my first walkman - it was in my easter basket when i was about ten years old. and with it was new kids on the block!!! :D
i also really loved my Roxette tape. and Debbie Gibson.

my little brother had that fisher price tape recorder thing. man i hated that. haha.
oh! i also just remembered those books that came with tapes? so you could read along while someone told you the story. i went to sleep with those every night when i was a kid.

My first Cassette Tape was Michael Jackson -- Thriller and I still have Records at my Moms from my childhood! Talk about Retro!! lol

My first cassette was "Meatloaf: Bat Out of ****", but I do remember the Christmas I got a Walkman and Michael Jackson's "Thriller". I listened to that Walkman non-stop (things haven't changed much twenty-eight years later -- I am listening to my iPod right now and listen to it all the time) and I had to change the batteries every couple of hours or so!

I remember listening to Huey Lewis & the News and Blondie tapes in the car when I was a kid, then Bon Jovi and Poison tapes on school trips when I was a tween. I still have a few tapes b/c my junk-car is a 1999 and has a tape deck!

GabrielleEmersyn 01-06-2011 02:29 AM

I also have a NKOTB CD in my car ;)
