spalding, can you get a copy of the picture with lasers in the background?
at age 7 I got my first quiet riot and def lepard tapes! I had older cousins that were into that.

it depends on what you classify as metal

when i was a kid black sabbath, deep purple, hendrix and led zepplin were metal in that day today they are just rock if you say they are metal due to the fact that i'm older than dirt and in that era that is what metal was then i'd say7 or 8 that is when i started borrowing my dads records

@12(1978) i heard KISS at my cousens house in ME.

Not only did it fall off, but it ended up in Jim's hands.
He takes other men's penises and puts them under little girls pillows during the night.

davy needs a BRO - remember that episode of seinfeld when kramer invents the bra for men and named it the BRO



toggletoggle post by litacore   at Mar 15,2004 10:46am
15 years old

my idea of metal had been Motley Crue
BUT THEN
Venom "Canadian Assault"
Celtic Frost "Emporor's Return"
and Mercyful Fate "Melissa"

no looking back from there.
:o)

I really knew I was listening to something special (metal that is) when a friend hooked me up to the just released Powerslave when I was in 6th grade.



toggletoggle post by MyDeadDoll   at Mar 15,2004 12:17pm
i'm a late bloomer... i think i was like 14 and my
mom was listening to stuff like type O negative
and white zombie... so i naturally thought it was
cool..



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Mar 15,2004 12:20pm
yeah, as we all know, nothing spells cool to a 14 year old like their parents.



toggletoggle post by MyDeadDoll   at Mar 15,2004 12:22pm
my parents are cool. hehehe. it's very rare,
but i love 'em. only they would be cool
enough to make penis jokes with me while
watching OZ after friday night dinner.



toggletoggle post by davyp at Mar 15,2004 12:36pm
MyDeadDoll are you parents younger, cause my parents are 19 and 20 years older than i am and i have the same relationship with my parents that you do with yours... at my dads, cock jokes are a main attraction at the dinner table when i go there for dinner or what not.... My dad will forever be 18 and his tast in music show it....



toggletoggle post by MyDeadDoll   at Mar 15,2004 12:38pm
my dad just turned 49 on Saturday and my mom
is 44. Damn, they don't seem that old at all. When
we occasionally go out, my mom gets carded 'cos
they think she's my older sister. it's funny.

13 I guess. I remember watching Metallica in 88. Then in 89 at day care my buddy and I would beat the shit out of kids when Guns N Roses would come on so I was about 6 then but that shit doesn't count. But I didn't go to my first show or buying records until I was 13. Oh I was born in 83.

I was six when my uncle brought me to k-mart/ ames / equivalent and bought me a walkman,(props to cool uncles) he said pick out a tape and i grabbed "Iron Maiden - powerslave"! he also took me to the first movie that i got to choose on my own "Breakin' 2 Electric Boogaloo"
another story same uncle-When i was 14 he took me and my friend to the mall -salem-, we did the old " we'll meet you at the foodcourt at blah blah time" because kids can't hang out with adults in the mall it's not "cool" well me and my buddy were in filenes basement - bargain shopping- we were flipping through the Girbaud jeans rack. some of the jeans were marked $35 some were marked $20. i grabbed a pair of the $20 jeans brought them to the counter the lady rang it up and then said wait we need a price check, a few minutes go by then the manager says o.k. I pay then we leave start heading up the stairstowards the food court and my uncle is right there and starts heading towards us. all of a sudden some Dude grabs me and says come with me, he was in plain clothes but he flipped some filene's basement security badge at me and is pulling me forcefully down the stairs. well here's where it gets good - MY UNCLE PUSHES THE GUY GRABS ME , HE THEN STARTS SMACKING HIMSELF AND SCREAMING "THIS GUYS GOT MY WALLET, HELP, HELP, HE'S MUGGING ME, HE'S GOT MY WALLET! AAHHH!" you should have seen the look on all the people in the mall's faces, well after about five seconds of that the guy let me go, but he convinced us to go on our own accord to the back room of filenes basement because he was accusing me of "price switching" a form of shoplifting. so he was like girbaud's we sell for $35 and we have video surveilance of you switching tags. On this video wow, alright first of all I'm not white and neither was my friend, we are both mixed black and white, he looks darker than me though, on this video you can see us walk into the store and then he zooms in on us right away and then follows us throughout the store what a racist prick! we were semi homeyed buying girbaud and all but at that age we were down with metal and comic books along with rap. so he zooms in on me looking at a tag then i put my hand in my pocet and then later i look at another tag. what a fuck! the cops came, i explained that it was bullshit and that the jeans were marked $20. it took my friend brining in 10 pairs of jeans from the rack- 5 marked $20 and 5 marked $35 for them to let me go. they sent me 2 $50 gift certificates in the mail to make things o.k. , but i should have sued the piss out of them for racism based false accusation. later my uncle told me that was his "anti mugging technique", act as crazy as you can and scream as much fucked up shit as you can think of. he lived in manhatten in the 80's. he also cut off his own hand because he figured out a fault in a black and decker saw design, he was a writer-back in early 80's there was pens and typewriters. well he cut it off it fell 16 stories the cops found it on theb roof of a shorter building he got it sewed back on and he sued black and decker for 11 million dollars but his crazy assed wife(not that he wasn't crazy) testified against him that he did it on purpose. so he only got 1.3 mil and half went to the lawyers, the saw got recalled. she divorced him shortly after and took half of his 650 tousand, what? she could have not said a word and taken half of 11 mil! well sorry to give you guys this extra long uncle story on the when did you first get into metal thread but he helped me get into metal so i decided to give you a little background info on him because he was a cool uncle! the same uncle also took me to see dune - before the breakin' 2 movie and we'd rock out to blondie-before i got powerslave, it's to early in the morning for me to type this much

i liked gangster rap when i was 10 then one day i saw ice-t on MTV news talkin about doing a song with slayer for the judgement night soundtrack - i wondered what this "slayer" was all about the next day i was wandering through the grafton flea market at 10 years old and i got my first bootleg copy of reign in blood.
