Records you would take if your house was on fire

1. if i'm at home, make sure my pets/family are okay and make sure they can get out, if i'm at school make sure my roommates are okay

2. my laptop

3. external harddrive

4. journals with all my writing in them

i dunno... all my records are arguably replaceable...it'd be one of the last things on my list to take

this question took on a whole new meaning after i was evacuated this past weekend from the nearby fire. i pulled the most random records from my shelf before leaving. i still feel a little silly i took a little time doing this. just went through the crate to see what i actually took.

the fact i took gaslight, lawrence arms, brand new, and death cab blows my mind. mind you i had like 15 minutes to get the fuck out.

about 99% of my records are locked in a basement in toronto, ontario canada that is fireproof. of the very few [maybe 100?] records i have with me, id just take my baroness collection, which is already all together on the top shelf of my bedroom

Assuming the wife and cats were already outside, I'd grab my NOFX, Lawrence Arms, and Archers of Loaf records (and probably a few random things) and my harddrive.

I'd send Jose Canseco back in to retrieve my washer, dryer, and fridge.

He certainly had it better than Ken Griffey Jr. taking the "nerve tonic"...god I love Simpsons seasons 3-9

Pretty sure I would worry about more important things than records if my house was burning down. Seriously.

I feel the same way.

i dont know about this. anything else is either to big or damn heavy, like my drums or my tv.

if i were to take any records i would grab my misfits, tla and saves the day - through being cool.

anything else that my wife and i would need would be in the safe. if that gets fucked then im taking target to court.

I'm honestly not sure what I would do. I'd definitely grab a few of my Park and Constants records and the tests.

Then I'm not sure. Probably these if I had time to choose:

Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon

Converge - Jane Doe

Isis Box Set

I look at my list and think, I love them all. I couldn't part with any of them. That would be really rough to lose them. On top of that, I'd have to grab my print collection and my computer for pictures and such. Pretty much everything else is replaceable.
