Good selections all…and if we are getting all nostalgic...I was a conflicted teenager. Owned these then, own these now...

We are child free and having a night stopover in London this weekend to see this amazing gal Julien Baker at Shepherds Bush Empire, then Son of Stag and Sunday Upmarket.
If you live with, or know someone who lives with mental health issues she will cut to your core…

Dang, I feel old. ^^Mogwai was the last band I saw live back in '08 for the Hawk Is Howling tour.

@gaseousclay I am more selective when booking gigs these days. When I played in bands I went to shows 3 times a week. I'd rather be with my family these days.
Last year the best gigs I attended were Swans, Slowdive, Natalie Merchant, Iron Maiden, Ani Difranco. Later this year we are off to see Slowdive support The War on Drugs…It will be euphoric!

I'm in a similar boat…i'd rather spend time with my son these days. However, my concert attendance fell off a cliff when I first met my ex. She absolutely hated the music I listened to (anything with loud guitars) and even called into question why I needed so many records and cd's ??? Never thought in a million years that i'd have to explain to someone that my love of music is why I have a record collection.

I really dig what these guys are doing. Obviously very much influenced by classic rock and very Zeppelin esque, but probably one of the more original sounding bands I've heard in a long time. They sound great live as well which is always a bonus. Singer has a great voice. I believe they are out of Michigan.

Really digging this one at the moment:

The Vinyl is gradually coming down out the loft.

Beatiful @bryaneidins !
I am unfortunately at the basement at the moment. Surviving, till I can recapture the living room again.
Kids are ten now, not far to go ;-).

^This pic was not arranged ;-).
Music in the background:
Lp and four CD's Sugar Hill Records Story with my all time favorite 'Grand Master Flash'!

@bryaneidins argh!!! No!!! Lofts and sheds are the enemy of vinyl. The variations in temperature even in insulated lofts can cause mold in the grooves. PLEASE check every record before you play it. It can ruin needles and stylus.
I'll have to post a close up of my hi fi soon.

@bryaneidins70 that was great, I just wish black thought had been there instead of Malik B. I think it shows just how well ll's lyrics have stood the test of time. I still preferred Malik B's delivery and flow. Old cats just have better rhythm.

Ok, so hip hop…Eminem this and that...for my money this is a top 5 verse of all time. 2 minutes non stop, one take, delivery, content, flow. RA probably one of the most underrated of all time (I'd put Masta Ace in there too)...
