What were you doing in 1993?

I loved working at the record store. I did it for four years, which was like getting an unofficial bachelor’s in music. I walked in as a metal head and walked out with a deep appreciation for blues, jazz, zydeco, early country, and early R&B among others. With things like Spotify, it’s easy for anyone to expand their horizons today, but back then, before the internet took off, it was an experience that couldn’t have easily been duplicated in any other environment.

@Stereoguy it was good for me at the time, got me free from financial reliance on an abusive step-parent and his enabling wife. And it took me nearly twenty years but I finished my degree.

@Effloresce Ouch, that sucks!

I know! The audacity 😱@Wol62

@Effloresce that happened to me when i was 5, some kid at a park did that, but not in 1993!

@Wol62 😆

@latinbutterfly Thanks!!!!!!

@Wol62 No problem 👍🏼

@SW-User I was like Beavis, or Butthead in that year!

@Wol62 Lol

@bijouxbroussard Dang, sorry to hear that...

@SubstantialKick for me it was difficult mostly when I was a little child

@SubstantialKick you don't have those feelings anymore? How did you overcome them?

@SW-User I started hanging out with some good people who helped me break out of my shell.

@uncalled4 Holy crap, 60 miles? Was it worth it?
