I'm pretty sure that these two have already been mentioned but I'm way too lazy at the moment to check.

Someone should compile an updated list for quick referencing...

I read all the the thread in the last hour :shock: ,and i did not see these:

546)Mentors -- politically incorrect!!!

547)fingers get dirty while digging in boxes full of records looking for "that damn" 7 "... you have not found yet...

548)the writing "Play It Loud"(and similar as "Play at maximum volume")on the records!

549)Everytime i make headbanging i lose one of my hair,maybe that's why i am almost bald? :cry:

550)To return home from a festival and beiing voiceless...

About 547 - it must be about the sacrifice, right. I mean the sensation of fingers accidentaly touching the tongue when your having a sandwich in the café when attending a record fair, not having your hands washed after going through 250 crates of smelly records often isn't all that pleasant... :D

549: An old man like me can use metal to frighten and shock his students and make them think he is insane for listening to that noisy music. WaHoo :lol:

I guess it still works to a degree but at this point there are families where daddy listens to Transilvanian Hunger and Symphonies of Sickness together with his son. :lol:

Most of my students are shocked that I can actually like any 80s metal. Like Accept :shock: My colleagues more so though. Played Atlantean Kodex to one a while ago and he asked me politely to turn it off stating that it must be a case of "for people of very particular persusasions" :lol:

I'm old enough to be the father of some people on here, so that could be me listening to Transilvanian Hunger. Not Symphonies of Sickness though, don't really like that one.

I'd be suprised if any of 'em had even heard Accept before. Unless you teach teutonic metallicum.

Sadly it's not a required course :)
My students are also always amazed to learn that their prof is an oldchool headbanger.... most of them guess that I'm into bluegrass (must be mah accent :) ). I always use pictures of old Megadeth and Nuclear Assault album covers when we discuss radioactive waste and nuclear power :)

I wear bandshirts to class, just to make sure they understand. Especially after I cut my hair short.

552. Bleeding on your pickguard when first trying to palm mute tremolo pick.

553. Boring your non-metal friends with metal talk (and feeling kind of smug about it--"these people just don't get it")

554. Not usually the first listen, but the second, to a previously-unknown-to-you track that convinces you that you just heard the greatest song of all time.
