So, what’s the alternative?

That’s literally what they told us back when I still studied Latin

Cassettes! And bandcamp

And then there’s my job… organising and basically working 24/7 at a festival from Friday to Sunday. Basically no time for Christmas shopping anymore haaaah

Tenacious D - Kickapoo

one can dream

He could do the funniest thing and just start with a speech doubling down on everything he said plus take the whole situation and compare it to fascist/dictatorial leadership

I’m not your bro, dude!

bro…

Have a job in online communications, works for me.

not quite my punchline… well played tho now give me a double time swing

Yes, this! No annoying purists in the cassette community (they might be there, tho, but haven’t encountered any yet so there’s that)

Oh I do have a lot of records as well, but cassettes have their charm as well! It’s easy to take them on the go (provided you have a walkman, which ALSO has its charm hahaha) and a lot cheaper than records. I like to collect my music on physical media, and cassettes make that very easy for me. A lot of the more “underground”/indie bands I listen to still release their music on tape as well. Plus, it’s very satisfying, indeed. I didn’t really grow up with cassettes (I’m 27), but nonetheless it has a certain feel to it.

Next thing you know you lose your kickdrum privileges

unrelated but FOUND THE GIZZ HEAD!
