you know, i have a box of flaming lips cassette live shows from when they were touring on their intial two albums, and only in oklahoma and nobody except local people had heard of them. i want to do something with them, but i dont know what. i think keeping them in tape form preserves something, but im not sure what yet. i also have another box of nothing but old skater era punk bands on tape, such as dead kennedys, bad brains, circle jerks, exploited, suicidal tendencies live shows. back in the day, tapes were jesus and i used to love when you had to use pencil to fix turn them, or use masking tape to splice them back together. good times.
