this book is for you…
if you…
- ever made a cassette with the same song for the entire side
- waited in line to buy a record the minute it came out
- got asked “so are you a groupie?” when you explained this was the third (eighth, tenth, twentieth) show you’d seen on this tour
- spent your lunch money on music or concert tickets
- been told you “sure know a lot about music for a girl”
- bought multiple copies of a record because you wore it out
- Bought multiple copies of a cd so you could have one for the work, one for the car, and one for home
- check someone’s lastfm feed before accepting a date with them
- would pull out white light, white heat at someone’s house to see if it had ever been played (thank you, Lester)
- can quote stage patter, interview quotes, or random lines in album reviews
- refer to band members by their first names so often your friends would start to raise their eyebrows
- [insert your own obsessive trait here]
It doesn’t matter if you love the Beatles, the Ramones, or even (yes!) Dave Matthews. If you love music, this is for you.
