waxl1974 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 March 1989. Was a 15 year old working for a neighbours building company during the Easter holidays in the UK. I was being driven around in a van picking up building supplies and dropping supplies around to the sites where people were working. Paradise City was in the charts and being played on radio 1 on heavy rotation. Each listen drew me in more and more. Shortly after I went and bought AFD banned cover on vinyl, that first play was enough to hook me completely, next day I went out and bought Lies and so the obsession began. Went into Brighton around 2-3 times a week going around all the record stores buying anything I didn't have over the coming months and various record fayres. Happy memoriesΒ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her brother caught her and tried to beat her up for kissing his Slash Poster! π³ She laughed at the memory however.Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t-p-d-a Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Many people, especially younger people, discovered Tom Petty through the GTA VI trailer with the song "Love Is A Long Road". That's exactly what happened to me in 2004 with the official TV Playstation 2 trailer for GTA San Andreas with "Welcome To The Jungle" on TV and CDs in games magazines. Heard up and down. I was just 13 years old. Greatest Hits was currently available for purchase at the music store. All albums were listed in the booklet. I bought these one by one from AFD to Live Era. Additionally Tokyo 1992 & Welcome To The Videos. That was my stuff before I got internet. Then the Bootleg Era began in 2010 for me. In 2012 the first live concert in my life with Guns N' Roses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
