Shred's Ninth: We enter, drunk with fire

I have accumulated many larger fat cells along the way too.  Could be slightly related to sitting on my butt while listening to all this music.  But mostly it is from my Big Mac and Fries vice.

Most of my vinyl collection belongs to my parents, but they no longer listen to it. I can't play any of it, but for collectors like me, it is nice to have. I especially treasure my Floyd vinyls.

I bought 4 vinyls this summer to play on my record player.  The first one played fine, but the record player died on the second one.     I've thought about buying one of those record players that you can play and record to MP3s.  But my vinyl collection is relatively small so it is not really worth it.  It would be cheaper to re-buy everything on CDs, especially since I already have for a number of them.

my mother has a collection of singles of Elvis Presley and my father destroy them... I couldn't believe him...!!! for a collector fan... it was like destroying an entire city filled with nice girls...!!

Ok, theoretical situation. Zombies invade your house (think Shaun of the Dead) and the only way to defeat them is to throw 5 vinyls at them. Which do you pick? (Assume you have every vinyl ever made)





For me it would be.

1. ELP: Love Beach
2. Anything by Nickelback
3. Face Value: Phil Collins
4. Anything labelled as "Crunkcore"
5. Entire Basshunter Discography

Nickelback do not have vynils...!!! they don't deserve it and the dumb teens that follow them don't know how to push play...

Plenty AC/DC and Kraftwerk vinyls on dad's side of the collection.

Well, it can be liberally interpreted.
