Apologies in advance to my lovely wife. Β She really is awesome for letting me do this.
RECORD STORE TALES Part 314: The Musical Crimes of Mrs. LeBrain
As we wind down the Record Store Tales, we get to the point that I met Jen in September 2005. Β The funny thing about love is the rose-coloured glasses. Β I don’t remember Jen having such bad taste in music. Β However, the photographic proof is here. Β She recently dug up herΒ old Linkin Park CD wallet (!!!) , inside which are many dirty and scratched CDs. Β Yes, Jen never took proper care of her discs either before we met, it’s true. Β I can’t even identify some of the filth on her Marilyn Manson CD. Β Could be coffee.
So here I am, a single Record Store Guy in the fall of ’05, meeting the love of his life…and these are the CDs in her collection. Β Thankfully we shared a love of bands such as The Beatles and The Darkness too. Β Even more thankfully, Jen doesn’t listen to Limp Bizkit anymore. Β (I mean seriously, look at these! Β She even owns the Limp Bizkit CD without Wes Borland!)
In her defense, I found no Nickelback. What I did find may upset you.
