Taper Notes:

View NotesNotes: I had a stack of cassettes that survived my youth that I needed to pitch, and of course, I listened to what was on them, before I did. Most of it was garbage, but these were bits that I saved.
Everyone in the family will have an equal chance to get embarrassed, and being the instigator of this archival project, I'll go first. 

Track 1: This was a work tape from when I used to play radio station in the upstairs bedroom. The only reason I didn't set the tape on fire, is because it's the only recording I have of myself talking "pre-puberty." It's horrible.

Tracks 2-5: When I was in middle school, I used to get home from school about an hour earlier than the other kids. Dad was usually at work, Mom was sometimes out, and it was the only times I really remember being alone in the house. I used to use this hour to bang on the piano and teach myself to play. Nothing mind blowing here, and I think you can hear mom at points talking or yelling in the background.

Track 6: Entirely random recording of Chris Lane getting a phone call from Dan Minbiole

Track 7: Chris' turn to be embarrassed. This is him singing along to The Beatles classic Ob-La-Di-Ob-La-Da with me playing recorder and being entirely goofy.

Track 8: Chris had to write an essay for school about the best lunch ever, and this random recording is us two being just goofy.

Track 9: Downright funny comedy sketch by Wayne and Chris

Track 10: Random recording of Wayne, Becky, Chris discussing what to get Mom and Dad for Christmas. It's funny how I am pretty much just an asshole to every suggestion Becky brings up, and absolutely nothing gets resolved.
