Raymond Barrett12, man, I remember hearing Elvis and his Meteors on that old cassette player for the first time at my uncle's place 🙏 and that one tape by Tom... you know, the one where he goes, "Hey Branka, tell me Branka, who's to blame for our breakup in '84?" 🙏 That thing had such a heavy-duty rewind button; if you clicked it left, it did >. Pretty sure my grandad still has it tucked away somewhere 🙏

Mine act just like that too, though I remember when the treasurer basically bailed on us right in the middle of filming some local news segment out in the sticks somewhere.
My grandfather still sits there listening to the nightly news at 7:00 sharp every single night.

David Sullivan4, bring the cassette just in case so I can rewind 🙏

If anyone has spare components, those would be useful too

We have to pull this off 🙂

Man, it’s just like the old days.

We used to lug those pre-recorded TDK cassettes around just so Rio could blast Gamma Ray and Blind Guardian for us. 😳

It’s funny... I actually have the exact same kind of cassette player as the ones in this photo. I remember listening to everything from classic Motown hits to old school soul tracks on mine, maybe even some wedding songs during those big family celebrations 🙏
. I might tune into your show, though I probably won't get through more than half of it, since I was busy studying back then 😢

I used to have one of those 🙂—we’d sit in the kitchen in total darkness, just listening to it away from the power 😍. I’d even take it to the beach so everyone nearby could listen along. I remember playing Nick Cave on that very first cassette I ever got from him, "From Her to Eternity/The First Born Is Dead." 😍 🙏 😍 Back when 'Cabin Fever' came out, you basically had to maintain absolute silence in the house 🤣. Eventually, they finally bought me a Walkman 😬. image

All my other cassette players have finally kicked the bucket—but this little guy still cranks them out, even if he makes that ridiculous bzzzzzz bzzzzzzz sound when rewinding. Honestly, mine is such a dark brown, it almost looks like it was finished in wood grain. 😍

I couldn't really hear the band over the crowd—it was pretty packed—but apparently, they were right by the stage. I'll probably just listen to the tape later. 👍

Grounding.

Man, oh man...

Where on earth did 🙏 🙏 🙏

My very first tape player 😍 specifically, it belonged to my older sister. Her folks bought it for her birthday back then...

I was only about 6 or 7 years old at the time

I can still vividly remember when she played "Engine" on that thing🙂

The ultimate cassette player... 😍

But man, that set at Spunk tonight was absolutely insane. No contest. 🙏 🙏 🙏

The touring guys in the band seriously deserve a permanent spot on the lineup... 😍 If you don't think the regular moderator's dance moves while playing a broken drum kit should be part of the official choreography, then you're clearly in the wrong business. 🤣

A little bit of the vibe...

The crowd was lined up!

It hit the red zone when the band started playing. It was intense...

This is how it looked through the glass

Man, that radio just went totally haywire when The Borg started acting up on it... 🤷

So, who actually ended up winning the chopping contest?

It actually sounded pretty interesting when I caught it on the radio. ☕
Hope you guys are all having some decent phones—stay sharp out there. 😬
