trevorm Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 My first record was Take One for the Team's - Spaghetti Western tour 7", the repress on orange. uhhh... this guy: http://www.discogs.com/Take-One-For-The-Team-Spaghetti-Western/release/2804479 So I guess I was 21. Fucking fun show, I'm 6'2, their singer was a good half foot taller than me, chucked me on his shoulders and started the pit that way . I never bought cd's and I wanted to chuck them some money for the good time, merch guy asked me if I wanted plastic or wax. I picked up the wax for the novelty and haven't looked back. mmm, first record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Deftones' Diamond Eyes white vinyl. Bought it well before I bought my turntable, but I needed it haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickxmurphy Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Have Heart - "The Things We Carry"I also bought it before I had my turntable. That seems to be a fairly common occurrence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yooooo Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Gaslight Anthem - 59 Sound. Still one of my favorites to this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Shankly Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 My first record was Take Off Your Pants & Jacket purchased about 7 years ago. I found out many years later that it was an original pressing from 2001 released in the UK, according to discogs. Absolutely love the record and I got it for pretty cheap, considering how much it would cost nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitseleh Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 My first was an original pressing of Weezer's Pinkerton. awesome! did you buy it back in 1996? i guess the first ones i ever owned (or rather, co-owned with my sisters) were a bunch of Disney records (Cinderella, 101 Dalmatians, Mickey Mouse Disco , etc.), which were bought by my dad (i think). i don't recall listening to them, though. fast forward a number of years later, and when i was fourteen i purchased my first record (The White Stripes' Elephant) in 2003. my family and i were vacationing in Vegas and i was obsessed with The White Stripes, so i begged my parents to take me to Virgin Megastore at Caesars Palace.

Hairy Potter Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 My first records were gifted to me by my girlfriend (now fiancee). I had expressed interest in collecting vinyl so, for my birthday, she got me a turntable and copies of Bright Eyes - Lifted and Real Estate - Atlas. First visit to a record store, I bought Gaslight Anthem - American Slang. BKO5950505 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mssskat184 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Rolling Stones- Hot Rocks when I was just a wee little thing. I want to say 9 but that may be wrong.Ended up getting broken a few years ago and I was pretty bummed. I know it's easily replaced, but the nostalgia...

throughbeingcruel Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Coheed And Cambria's Second Stage Turbine Blade, on a green marble LP. I got it in 2012 directly from EVR/MerchNow. I wanna say it's /250, but I can't remember and it isn't on Discogs. It didn't come with an insert at all either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No This Is Patrick Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 As I Lay Dying - "The Powerless Rise" back in 2011. It was the super limited deluxe fan box set and it had a "picture disc". I honestly didn't know it had music and was playable. I think I was majorly into AILD and got a hold of "An Ocean Between Us" next... kinda just went from there. I hit the ground running in 2013 and got a majority of what I have now... and didn't get a player until 2014. True story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
