I Should Have Had More Respect for the Wellness Floor

I need the time line of when people lived where.

Adeet. Sean. Brian. Lived in Shaw. When?

Eventually they had a suite. When?

I was in a sublet. Half a year. Second semester.

Following fall. In a house. Across from Mike.

Were they still in Shaw?

Chris was in Shaw. Wellness floor. He wasn't pleased when I had a forty. Or two. In his room. I don't think he'd mind now.

When did the rest move to the Suite? Tim too.

I can't put it together. I remember meeting Adeet's mom. Fall or spring? I think fall. I had drinks.

Adeet had Morrissey posters. The Smiths. He fully embraced both. I want to say over a summer. I could be wrong. I am having trouble.

In that room. I think Shaw. Tom? Roommate? Adeet played Godspeed. Kill Holiday. Falling Forward. I remember pushing The Verve. Another time. Another place. Maybe.

Sean and Brian. Their room. I brought over The Get Up Kids first seven inch. On their record player. Middle of the room? Candyland Car Crash as well. Am I the only person that knows this band?

I sold Sean my Frail records. A Frail shirt. Tight shirt.

Sean and Brian talked about their band. An Earth Crisis compilation. Anti-Earth Crisis.

This was Shaw? Not the suite. Almost certain.

Kill Holiday - Monitor Dependency. AKA bargain bin.

  2. I can tell you this:

    - Adeet and Tom lived in a Shaw double the 96/97 school year.
    - Sean and I moved next door at some point during the year, either just before Xmas break or just after
    - Tim, Matt, Sean, and I lived in a suite in Sadler for the 97/98 school year. I think Matt did have a record player in the main room.
    - Candyland Car Crash are great.

  3. Colin: I have mp3s of the seven inch and the split if you are interested.

    Brian: That makes some sense. Adeet didn't live in the suite. He lived in Shaw during that time? I believe that is what threw me off.

    I'd like to get digital versions of the Candyland Car Crash material.

  7. Thanks Pete - I used to have these songs on a mix tape/cd years ago. Perhaps they are a little overwrought after a decade plus? John P

  8. Mix cd? Did they exist in 1997?

    It had to be a tape.

  9. I think 1997/8 was the cross-over year in transition from mix tapes to CDs so could have been either.

    This was right around the time my tape player was replaced in favor of a cd player.
