[@mistylor13]

This is so funny and I'm under 3 minutes in. In 7th grade, JCPenny had Youth Gone Wild shirts in the clearance section for $5. I was walking around the mall with my girlfriends, and my mom was with my little brother elsewhere in the mall. All my friends bought a shirt, of course. I was so pissed off because there was no way my mom was going to let me wear a shirt that said Skid Row or Youth Gone Wild. The woman made me personally return my open Slippery When Wet cassette solely based on the first verse of Never Say Goodbye. In retrospect, double entendres were not her strong suit. Well, we finally met back up to leave the mall, and my little brother is wearing a Youth Gone Wild shirt. Only a few years later when I was 15, she was dropping me off with another 15 year old at Fair Park in Dallas to see Skid Row and Pantera, yet I was not allowed to watch The Simpsons, Cheers or reruns of Three's Company. Somehow miraculously, Sebastian Bach just never set off her radar..

[@flipjupiter1]

Threes Company is my all time favorite show. It was before my time but I watched the reruns and later bought the DVD box set. 😉🤘

[@williamtm1965]

so, Sebastian loves good deals on records, wants to spend $40 on 40 records, but sells his signed latest LP for $200 at his concerts!

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

I collect CD/Cassette and Vinyl... never had I experienced ear fatigue listening to to my CDs and that's listening to CDs all day on a sat and Sunday. To me it's mostly about owning decent hi-fi gear. Even many of my tapes sound as good as vinyl and CD ;) So long as you still buy music, that's what matters. Love Back on the Trailer park boys, you were amazing on that show haha

[@MetalSurfer007]

Yeah it's a little hard to get ear fatigue from listening to Barry Manilow all day

[@Donald_McE]

I won't enter the vinyl vs CD discussion, I like both formats. But every person under thirty-years old I've talked to basically listens to music via digital download or streaming. So often I've heard "I don't want to clutter up my home with CDs or vinyl records." or something along this line. Yes, I'm old - sixty-eight years old, and I still remember eight-track tapes - but this anti-physical media bias baffles me. Oh, Bach is a powerhouse and a great guest.

[@beefheart67]

Funny story, Sebastian talks about how his mom played Willie Nelson’s Always on my mind, over and over and over. Well back in the early 90’s, one my sisters first boyfriends made her a cassette tape of Skid Row’s I Remember You, recorded about 6 times, on both sides of the tape. She would play it on her auto reverse cassette deck over and over and over. My 14 year old brain couldn’t handle it haha. Back then I swore, I never wanna hear this song again. I still like the song today tho, oddly enough.

[@MrMrdlegend]

Its analog...vinyl feels more real. And Sebastian is the best. Love his free spirit attitude, his passion for music, and of course his love for Rush

[@erikhagforsarcticking]

[@MichaelDuffy-wy1yn]

Gotta love Sebastián Bach, he in my opinion is and was Skid Row.. they still haven't found there singer yet. Until it gets way to late,skid row just have Sebastián be apart of skid row already. Cause it's getting were everyone is getting older.....godspeed to Sebastián bach

[@jerseyjoe1677]

I actually found a good singer, but he got sick like really sick and had to bail. The damage is done with them. Sebastian was 19 and was handed a key to the world. He really pissed a lot of people off. He didn’t grow up because he didn’t have to . But we all don’t like the people that we work with so look at it as a job they can get back together and pretend to like each other. Mötley Crüe did it for years when you’re on stage be professional, and do your job but at the end of the day, how many people really care about the other members and Skid row? People like me and you know their names but most people don’t it’s not like one kiss had they reunion tour everybody knows who he really is Most people could not name a member from Skid Row besides Sebastian. And Sebastian defense them not opening up for a kiss was the stupidest thing on the planet.

[@tdtm82]

Oh man he's so right about 'brickwalling' and I love how loud he is in explaining this back. I love this guy.

[@stinkenstine]

Well Seb, it depends on your hifi system. I listen to both vinyl and CD’s. Both I can listen to all day & night and love my CD’s. You need a good DAC for your cd player. I just prefer vinyl for the experience.

[@purplebeard1526]

I like the clean sound of cds, but I'm 100000% behind sound mixing quality being weird amongst formats and albums. I also think it depends on your audio gear too.

i don't agree with sebastian bach about the cd vs vinyl thing ! my music collection is mostly cds and i can listen to cd's in full all day ! i don't say that cd sound quality is better than vinyl but i'm very satisfied with the sound quality of cds ! i heard vinyl records before and it was an amazing experience but i'm very satisfied about the sound quality of my cds ! i am an avid music fan who listen to albums in full all the time so no i don't agree😄 the vinyl quality sound is overrated in my opinion but the sound is great ! i liked is picks nonetheless !

[@JB4375]

While I don't miss tje imperfections, pops etc. that you would get with vinyl as it ages, I definitely agree with what he said about it's warmth of sound. Back in the day I used to clean the record and record it on a high quality cassette and place the album in a protective sleeve. Unfortunately I sold my vinyl after toting it around for nearly two decades, and vinyl hadn't even come back yet. 20/20 hindsight. 😄

[@RaymondCarver-vy9uk]

Regardless which of the formats you prefer, physical media is the best!!! I know there's people who only download, stream, etc., but there's nothing beter than actually owning physical copies of your favorite musiic. There's something nice about looking at your collection on the shelf everyday!!

[@sofiane6042]

Yes ! I agree 100% ! The sound quality is not the most important thing ! The most important thing is that the music you love, you have to own it physically of course either it's vinyl or cd ! It's so beautiful to touch your records, to see the art, to read the lyrics, the stories behind the albums ! It's way better than having music on a little screen 😂 thanks for sharing your opinion !😊​@@RaymondCarver-vy9uk

The Daio Kosan LZ II cd sounds fantastic. Mastered by Barry Diament. Lots of peeps wanna trash cds...its just like vinyl..its all about the mastering.

[@ncallaway9731]

[@andresduplex1152]

The question is not vinyl vs cd. The key is analog recording. Those records from 70s, 80s and I guess majority of 90s were recorded in analog. So todays hype and fashion of vinyl is tricky cause majority of the modern presses are cut from digital files (for whatever reasons like - the tapes are worn cause of their age and to save the music it’s needed to be converted into digital OR there are lack of experienced engineers to work with analog gear to cut the lacquers etc). So nowadays when majority of the records done in digital there is not much reason to cut vinyl (as analog format) from digital files. It’s enough to have DAC and 24bit WAV. I’m truly for the vinyl in case analog chain from recording through mixing, mastering and cutting is not broken. If there is digital conversion at any stage the advantage of vinyl as analog format is questionable.
