Hi, everyone over 30: Who was your favorite local band when you were in highschool?
Did they put out a cassette?
Do you own a copy of that cassette?
How many other people, do you think, still own copies of that cassette?
Do you still keep up with any of the band members?
@ajr No local band, so I don't know.
I have no idea. I don't have any cassettes left because I don't have room (and haven't had a tape deck for fifteen years).
Cassettes are getting to be a really big thing these days, lots of synthwave artists are selling limited edition ones these days.
No local bands? That's a shame!
I had the good fortune of spending a lot of time in our local concert venue. I met some great people.
Yeah, I've noticed (and participated in) the cassette resurgence. As long as they come with a digital download, I'll pretty much always opt for the tape over the CD.
@ajr Didn't have the money or social contacts to find out about any. The music I listened to I stumbled across purely by accident through recordings. Didn't actually go to any concerts until I was 19 or 20.
I think I have one tape - Protector 101's new release, from the concert a few months ago.
Agree on the digital download option...
