I was 15. My best friend played Welcome to the Jungle for me in the hallway after school and I remember thinking, "Everything just changed."
For me, it was halfway through seventh grade. I noticed this one kid had a Guns N Roses cutout on the inside of his locker. It was the band standing in front of this graffiti that read “Glam Sucks.” Got the album right after seventh grade and couldn’t believe it. Listening to it now, it’s still amazing.
