A song truly ahead of its time. Made in 1983, but had a 90s feel to it.

Don’t wear new shoes before or during a vacation.

That’s a decent song. We listened to this a lot in the 80s and 90s. I just got back from the heavy metal a few hours ago.

It was 80s rock, the 90s are just jealous because most of the music was leftover 80s.

A few times in my career, when they took attendance at some class or seminar and someone asked "what happens if I don't sign the attendance sheet?" I replied in barely but still audible voice " I hope you know, that this will go down, on your permanent record."

Wow, 1983..7th grade
My junior high was next to a skatepark in Anaheim, CA.
I remember walking home with friends & stopping to watch the skaters, who often had photographers with them, skating this park that none of us realized until later how important these guys were & how famous they were or would become.
Anyway, music would always be blaring during these skate sessions & it’s the first time I heard the Violent Femmes & many other bands that I love to this day.

Second half of the -80s at U of O...Violent Femmes, R.E.M, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Replacements,,,, I think $6 was the most I paid for any ticket.

All different shows. Dangerous Penguins and Gaudalcanal Diary opened for REM. Chile Peppers were $1 at a beer garden.
