  1. I used to collect CDs until a few years ago when downloading was just so much easier (one of those guys for a bit), finally when I moved out of my parents my dad asked me "do you want the old turntable and big speakers" and i absolutely accepted the offer. he didn't want to give me his records I only asked for "the rise and fall of ziggy stadust" ... after hearing how amazing that album sounded through the system I had to go out and buy a few more. Since then it has become a major expenditure, but well worth it. It is almost difficult to contribute a new reason why any of us collect vinyl 5 pages in, but it's definitely an awesome feeling to go to a record store and browse and explore some new music. it's a nice social activity both at a record store or at home with friends.
  2. my girlfriend (whom i live with) went out of town for the night, i was excited to have a "boys night" but half of my friends also went away i have a few friends coming over, but overall i am wishing for more people. bought a few records today so we will have a chill night and have some beer i guess. happy friday!
  3. That's awesome man, nice pick-ups too. It's kind of cool, its actually an Italian imported version so some of the songs are different recordings. bizarre love triangle isn't as long but its a lot "airier" if that makes sense - I'm feeling it, nice to have a few oddities in the collection.
  4. kanye west - my beautiful dark twister fantasy new order - brotherhood
  5. Mike T, that lunch menu looks legit in comparison to how my school use to be. Our school district has gone a long way since I was in high school. They could hardly accommodate people with allergies, but now it seems everyone can eat for an somewhat decent cost. Beats the greasy stale pizza I was subject to.
  6. big sean, one of the guys kendrick name dropped in his verse.
  7. Beatles - Abbey Road Clash - London Calling Rodriguez - Cold Fact
  8. de la soul - 3 feet high and rising pixies - surfer rosa
  9. The Beatles -Magical Mystery Tour The Beatles (White Album) - 76 press Radiohead - Kid A 10"
  10. I'm not sure how widespread/available Picaroon's beer is, but if you ever see these I recommend you at least try a couple different brews. You buy them in singles. http://www.picaroons.ca
  11. this is awesome. these guys film all of this stuff close to where i'm from. i actually see these guys roaming the street in character at times - but not recently. this is truly great news.
  12. Where I live it is also a struggle for a young, somewhat recent graduate to find work. For me it is going year to year, if nothing comes up I need to supply for a bit until something opens. With budget cuts and less of a turn around some colleagues have turned to other career paths even, which I could not imagine doing after putting in my 5 1/2 years of post secondary. Hanging in there, but optimistic. Very nice seeing a number of teachers on this forum!

Smooth, The Strokes, The Beatles Hobbies (outside of record collecting): Skateboarding, coffee, beer. Play in a band? Run a record label? Link us!: Only mess around with friends at this point Random things you want us to know about you: I am a school teacher and very avid skateboarder - been skating over half my life. Father gave me his record player when I moved to my new place and it has been life changing.
  14. I agree. I should have specified that I think mainstream artists are going to follow this trend. I'm sure G.O.O.D. Music will be filled with similar style releases in the next year. I wouldn't put it past other mainstream hip-hop artists to follow. Perhaps see some more Daft Punk productions.
  15. After a few listens I enjoy the album enough to pick up the record if and/or when it comes out. Now we can expect a bunch of hip-hop artists releasing Yeezus style tracks - Ye is quite the trendsetter if you look at his past 3 releases.
