favorite music when you were a teen

[murph the surfMember]

Hendrix – Funny thing was he had been dead for almost 10 years. :blush:
Zeppelin – Not long after I got into them they broke up. Bonham had died
Floyd – Espically the earlier stuff. :woohoo:

Had some weird times listening to that kind of music
Maybe thats why I am so messed up now. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Cheers

P.S. Only dragged the Pink Floyd Pulse DVD out the other night for a look/listen whilst drinking some Turkeys

First album bought Kiss Destroyer
First Concert 1976 at Chicago Stadium. Sat in the Bird Cage where the announcers sat for Chicago Bulls Games. Of course it was Kiss right before the release of Kiss Alive 2 and an obsession with Kiss Alive.

I also had an an obsession with Led Zeppelin, Rush and pre Dark Side of the moon Pink Floyd. Nothing like dropping a tab of LSD and listening to Echos or One of These Days.

I feel old. :ohmy:

What a great thread. My parents (sorry guys) where HUGE music nuts for all the stuff from the 60’s, 70’s and early 80’s. I had a record player up till the age of 16 bc thats all I needed as I only had vinyl to listen to anyway. So the body might be young but the mind is old

Kiss , Pink Floyd, ACDC , The Skyhooks, The Bee Gee’s back to the Beatles, Hermins Hermits etc.

Murph. popping a tab and listening to music :laugh: love it.

But what about the folk stuff

America?
John Denver?
The Seekers?
Best taken with weed I think rather than LSD :laugh: :laugh:

A music thread! Now you got me started.

First album bought, Never Mind the Bollocks, here’s the Sex Pistols. Even now when I here the opening riff to Pretty Vacant it takes me back to 1977, bouncing around Barbarellas club in Brum with my hair spiked up and dyed pink.

I was in to all the punk bands at the time. The Clash, The Stranglers, The Ruts, The Skids, Boomtown Rats, Generation X, X Ray Specs, etc etc.

Then me and me mates went all modernist. Largely due to The Jam (remeber All Mod Cons?) Got a tidy Lambretta 125 (the most unreliable form of motor transport ever manufactured) and a Parka. Got well in to the 60’s (The Kinks, The Small Faces, The Who) as well as The Chords, Secret affair, The Lambrettas. My girlfriend at the time had a beehive several feet tall. I remeber going to see Quadrophenia at the Picture Palace in Stafford. There was a big fight afterwards beteeen the Mods and Rockers, just like Brighton beach in the 60’s, except this was a small industrial town in the north and it was 1979.

Then we got all sad and beautifull, though unlike some of my mates, I stopped short of borrowing my sisters make up. Ultravox, Gary Numan, Bowie. I will even confess to buying a Smiths album later on.

Sometimes I really wish I was 19 again.

[aprilMember]

Ok now that someone from the 90’s has put something up I’ll fess up to mine

Marilyn Manson—yep used to wear the spiked cuff and collars
Korn
Offspring–even my kids like these guys
GreenDay
Red Hot Chili Peppers

Saw Marilyn and Korn at BDO 99 was in the mosh pit (gold Coast yep I’m a qlder) for both.

Tried to relive my youth at this years BDO . I waited 3hrs!! in the mosh pit to be in the front row for Red Hot Chili Peppers. Had my shoes ripped off my feet, watched teens drop like flies around me bc it was 45 degrees and if you’re short in the pit you can’t breathe, came out with seriously bruised ribs too. But I was so close I could read Anthony and Flea’s tatts ….totally worth it

yeah I admit many times I thought ‘ I’m TOO OLD for this SHIT’ . :laugh: :laugh:
