1. That record

simply blew me away. A life long fan. I have seen them many times and even though it is slower, as we all are, I love every moment.

This was my first experience with them and I can never forget that day.

7. I still remember the guy who brought it

and still speak with him now and again.

Being a liberal teacher she let us listen to it. It took me weeks to make enough money babysitting but I got it ASAP.
