Day 2 - Debut



Gwen Stefani - Love. Angel. Music. Baby

I used to consider this a guilty pleasure, then my life got way more fun when I stopped feeling guilty about it! Gwen is honestly one of my favorite artists and no matter the quality of her work she always gets a smile out of me. That being said this album is straight up one of the best pop albums period

I like the Chris Cornell Votive Candle! Nice touch.

I bought that at Easy Street Records when we were in Seattle for the PJ Home shows in Aug 2018. Put it in my carry on and TSA stopped me thinking it was something dangerous!

How this made it so far in the day is a mystery. Good one!

I was afraid someone had already posted it! Scrolled back to make sure!

Day 3 - Power trio

Three monsters of jazz, in an oddball one-off session that turned out to be one of the better jazz LPs ever.

I was gonna go the acoustic route but my wife said she was raging from work today, so I queued up an angry record instead:

Day 2: “Debut” ..those that got it right straight out of the box

Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary

Day 3 - Power Trio
Morphine - Cure for Pain

One of my favorite bands, a power trio built around a saxophone rather than a guitar. This album shreds.

Galaxie 500 - On Fire

My favorite shoegaze album.

 

[tvham]

Day 3: “Power Trio”- play a record by a Three Piece.

Saint Etienne - Good Humor

My favorite album from one of my all time favorite bands. Less beat driven than their first three albums, it’s delicious pop with nods to Sweden and America. It’s also signed by all three members under their respective pics.

TLC - CrazySexyCool

 

[gaporter]

DAY 4
MEMORABILIA
MGMT - Little Dark Age
A very underrated album by a very underrated band, one of my favorites of 2018

And if I understand the theme correctly, shirts are eligible memorabilia, correct? So here is me rocking the shirt to go along with it! (P.S. it's very comfy)

 

[Russ I]

Day 4: “And now for something completely different..” ..any Record you like but with a piece of music related memorabilia to accompany it ...a gig ticket, book, t shirt , poster, funkopops.. what’s lurking out there ..autographs? Elvis’s Cadillac..yellow submarine ....

Sharon Van Etten – Tramp



I first saw Van Etten back in 2011, then again in 2012. I was a huge fan of hers at the time. Below is a venue poster I talked my way into at her show in 2012, and a link to a blog post with a brief account of the show and a bunch of photos.
