I was bored at work today and googled my old college radio station-- and this is it, the very 8-pot LPB board I learned to DJ on way back in the dark prehistory of 1993. It was old even then. If you've ever heard me bitch about cleaning sticky dried-up Coke spills out of a mixing board because the fucking metal DJs never followed the no-food-in-the-studio rules, this was the board. If you've ever heard me talk about being down in the station at 4am, watching the VU meters dance to Young Disciples' "Apparently Nuthin," these were the meters. I can't believe it's still in service... though given that this pic was apparently taken in 2003, it may have gone to board heaven by now. My god, I miss it!

Wow it's the stegosaurus to my high school's triceratops.

That makes me misty too.

Aww now you got me all nostalgic too.

For those of you who don't know [info]speedlime and I used to co-DJ together. We had a show called "Dinner at the Long Pig Cafe." Those were the days, weren't they?

Damn this sentimentality - now I have to go watch a movie where people shoot each other!
