Wed-A-Boogie Nights

Post by TexasImprovMassacre »

Shannon, can you give me some background on the Wed-A-Boogie nights mix tape you made?

When you made it? And what stage of your life you were in musically?



Also, for anyone else...what was the most important mix tape/cd of your life?

I joined my first band as a freshman in high school. I listened to different music from everyone else in the band, but they let me in because I played guitar and they needed a guitar player. They made me a mix tape to show me what kind of music they wanted to play. "Punk Ex Muy Bien vol.II" changed my music taste from shitty metal/rap to shitty punk/ska. Ultimately, it seemed to be my taste in music which would root me into my particular high school niche. If not for this mix tape I might have fallen in with the goth/metal crowd...those kids weren't all bad people but at my school they certainly had a much higher ratio of lame:cool.

I was still listening to a lot of Rush in high school, when a friend of mine returned from hanging out with some girl over the summer with a tape for me. Sex Pistols, Dead Milkmen, and the Dead Kennedys. That pretty much did it, right there.

Later on, when I saw that exact same scene happen to the dude in SLC Punk, I just had to laugh like hell.
