I’ve been revisiting a lot of Ministry and Circle Jerks lately. Cathartic.

I put Ministry on once a month or when I need to power through a work day

Minor Threat at the 930 Club was one of my favorite VHS tapes!

Cool! Have you seen another state of mind documentary/ movie?

Oh yeah. Living that crashing on couches lifestyle was my post high school dream. It’s probably why I only made it through two months of college the first time around. 😊

Good thing there’s some Tone Loc to balance it out!
Also… I had completely forgotten about PWEI! And that Stone Roses album I listened to a thousand times.

I cherished those two tapes like you wouldn’t believe. I really wanted more music from both of them but PWE’s follow up wasn’t that good.

Nor was Ian Brown’s solo album (dude from Stone Roses).

I still have some too. I might keep a couple, but I think it’s time to get rid of the rest. 😢

LOVE the Mixed Tapes! Those were the best. A real art form to create.

For sure. I miss making and getting mix tapes. Trading them friends in person and in the mail was something I lived for.

Creating a mix tape for someone was so special. Super cool to get one.

Definitely!

Good Lord Almighty!! I want this!! You still got a tape deck? I have an extra if you need one! My tapes are deteriorating in a milk crate. Lots of original band recordings too from some of my teenage punk rock bands.

They were a godsend when I first heard them in the mid 80. I finally heard what I didn’t know I’d been feeling.

I don’t miss that music medium but do miss making mix tapes. Nice collection.

Women and children First is kinda ho hum, but you make up for it with that Ozzy cassette and Black Sabbath’s greatest hits. Nice collection.
tcr!
· Jul 14, 2019 at 8:53 pm
Thanks! Early Ozzy and Van Halen were unbeatable.

I was never a fan of women and children first for some reason. All the rest I love. Early ozzy is awesome…

Women and Children definitely felt like a studio album. Like they were writings songs to make a record and not because they loved writing songs.

I remember your collection of tapes. I never really listened to a whole lot of music of tapes but I sure remember vhs tapes

My collection has dwindled but I bet I have about 30 to 40. Of those I still listen to 3 or 4 in the bathroom when the radio sucks 😊

It’s the way that you fake it. I know it’s too late.
One can never go back home, can never reclaim their youth.
But can one mend a broken heart? Can one ever truly forgive and forget?
I don’t think so.
It’s like a bloodstain on your bluejeans. No amount of love or forgiveness will ever wash that away.
Personally, I might have tolerance at best.
Happy Friday, I suppose.

Peeps, here’s your letting-a-new-day-begin jam for today. No video but the song is 100+ if not more.

Deadpool has bagged $754,530,050 worldwide at the box office and has passed The Matrix Reloaded ($742.1 million) to become the highest-grossing R-rated movie in box office history. The movie cost only $58 million to make.
The Hollywood Reporter broke the story back in February that star/producer Ryan Reynolds made only $2 million upfront. Although he was signed for a sequel, THR sources said his WME agents were planning for a big renegotiation that will significantly up his compensation for future installments.
According to my sources, that renegotiation is done and Ryan Reynold’s deal has closed. Although I don’t have the deal particulars (the hollywood trades probably do), Ryan Reynolds is locked in to return as the Merc with with Mouth when production on the Deadpool sequel kicks off this fall. Good for Ryan Reynolds who played ball whenever 20th Century Fox needed him to make numerous appearances in character for the hilarious and unprecedented marketing campaign.

That’s a lot of recordable hours. 😳
I just realized I don’t have a VHS recorder anymore 😢

Put them on Craigslist and wait for hipsters?
I think you’re on to something here. There’s got to be an archaeological angle to them.

Feeling nostalgic.
I couldn’t throw them away. I wanted to but I just couldn’t.

No, I do not want your shrink wrapped VHS tapes.
You say that now but wait until you hold them

You probably have a Freecycle site. If you list them, someone will want them
