    Alive, car radio. It's a bit embarrassing, but my Mom is the one who "discovered" them for me.

    It was luck, my cousin was working there and snuck me and my friends in, Wash was the first song I heard but that night it was Garden the song that turned into the point of no return for me :)

    It took awhile.........just felt like the time was right. There's been too much good stuff going on lately to stay on the sidelines any longer.

    We had just moved and didn't have cable because we were out in the middle of the woods (so no MTV). My brother's girlfriend at the time recorded a bunch of videos off MTV and mailed them to us. Jeremy was on this tape... so was Sir Mix-A-Lot's I Like Big Butts.

    Age: 5 (but digging it just as much as anyone!!)

    Year: 1992

    Where: Pasadena, Maryland, in the house I grew up in. My dad got pretty into them and he would play Ten on our living room stereo all of the time. There is even home video of him and my then seven-year-old brother jamming to it. It's adorable how into it we were, even that young. And so it continues today...

    16yr old
    My 1st car had a hugh stereo system at the time...(you could hear it comin from 1/2 mile away) was listeing to alot of rap music at that time and then all of a sudden there was this bass guitar that just rocked and even sounded better then the bass loops on the dr dre tapes... yes tapes...
    Song cant remeber (use to get alot of boots from local shop and I think the first was Mookie Demos which I wish I had those tapes now) but I just remember the light shining through on a new era for me. Snowboading to ten in my walkman was like an epiphany!
    PJ was one of the things that made me realize that the girl I was with at the time wasnt for me and by the time I was 17 she was gone and I meet my future wife who I have been married to for 11years, have two kids and one on the way and couldnt be happier!
    I know you said no stories but I couldnt help myself!
