You must be right around 4 years older than me because that is my soundtrack to my high school years to a T.

Yes once you factor in the bump it gets from the video done by those Duke AZNs (redundant I know).

I remember when I first downloaded that ish on Kazaa, complete with several viruses I'm sure. The pre-YouTube video situation on the Internet was a shitshow.

Do people still blare tunes on The Quad or does the sound police stop you.

Most of the albums I would have said have already been mentioned, so here are some memorable bands that played fraternity parties and/or around town for $5.

The Mundahs

Southern Culture on the Skids
Hootie and the Blowfish
Dave Matthews Band
Doug Clark and the Hot Nuts
Indecision

The Connells were also a big draw at the time, but they cost more to see.

Love the way the Mundah's sit separate from the others.

Saw the Connells a few weeks ago in The Dash. Solid....
 
Grateful Dead bootlegs galore. Went to about 65 shows in my 3 years at Wake.
 
I'll avoid the campus trend, because it was awful consistently for 4 years. Personally, I went from the 90's rock (Incubus, 311, etc.) of high school parties and burn runs to a more eclectic mix over the 4 years. For example one of my best friends is huge into 80s pockets, so he got me hooked on shit from there freshman year. I also found myself getting exposed to more indie music sophomore and junior year which was cool (thanks in large part due to the discovery of pitchfork). As I approached senior year, I really got back hard into my grunge love from high school, as well as just heavier rock n' roll.

Also, Ryan Adams was probably my most consistently ripped artist. I was super emo during college.

:koolaid:

Truth. Anybody else go to Mighty Quinn Music? He used to sell a nice collection of bootleg CDs and cassettes. IIRC, some bootleg CDs were ridiculously expensive ($30). I think he was allowed to have a kiosk in Benson on occasion.
 
Was anybody else her at the Deke house party in 1987 with The Connells?

ChrisL68?

Yep.

Saw the Connells twice in my life. That show and the show that opened Walnut Creek Ampitheatre in Raleigh.

ERRYBODY IN DA CLUB GETTIN TIPSY

The reasons that one is so familiar is (a) they played it all the time and (b) someone called into 102 Jamz and said they thought the words were ERRYBODY IN DA CLUB EATIN CHIPS and that just stuck with me.
