I'm not sure when or where it originates, but when I was in Paris in 2004 I went to a very early morning (or late night) audience participation strip kareoke event. I recall San Fran on Broadway and side clubs in the late 80s as well with a bit of the wild/risque action lip-syncing to songs. Ol' drag scenes.

If my record collection were animals, I'd be turned in by the authorities. Not because I have so many (I don't), but rather how I sort/stack/leave them out etc.

I fondly remember stepping on stacks of vinyl to get out of the room when mixing. not good. :-D

I have never organized my record collection. Not once.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:00pm
Lotis Odder from the year 2020:

I started organizing in 1987 by BPM, really helped playing out from 87-92 heavy. After the mid-90s it was just always A-Z and only did that after I had a couple of thousand.

Gotta go help my neighbor move furniture and drop some old stuff on the street, back before the show shuts down.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:00pm

Lotis Odder from the year 2020: oh no! yeah, the color method wasn't successful for me, either! Nor the chronological…

BPM?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:01pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

i once organized by which friend or family member the record reminded me of (way back when i had less than 200 records)
Avatar 6:02pm
Linda Lee:

wow! :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:02pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

and none of this means that my records are actually in order! i just like filing
Avatar 6:03pm
Linda Lee:

I have about 400 now .. my 4th or 5th collection. it's loosely grouped by genre. very loosely.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

still can't find a ding-dang thing when i'm looking for something specific. Chaos and Synchronicity win again!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm
Lotis Odder from the year 2020:

GST - I 'love' filing too. Most of my filing these days is with files on the drives, from client folders to project folders. A good filing system and file-naming conventions can do wonders for productivity. Gotta run, time to move some bookcases...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:05pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

15 years with my partner, most of them cohabitating, and we still haven't dared try to mingle our collections. so we have TWO disorderly systems going on!
Avatar 6:05pm
Linda Lee:

ha! that's amazing. still no mixing!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:06pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

no. mixing. and then there are our abundant zines and comix collections. oy.
  6:07pm
Martinibomb:

Zines! Comix! I didn't even know what Zines were until maybe 1993?
Avatar 6:07pm
Linda Lee:

I understand this. records are even more personal than clothing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:08pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

how the #%@! do you organize zines? Barnard Library does a very decent job, actually.
Avatar 6:09pm
Linda Lee:

it's interesting to me to try remembering what happened to my other collections. either i gave them away as a kind of watershed before a major change, or i sold them for money because money.

Martinibomb:

It's still crazy to me I have a show on WFMU... growing up hillbilly I'd never have thought I'd be doing this Lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:10pm
Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

Martinibomb: yeah, who knew zines before 1993? Not many. When i met Chloe, July 4, 1994 (at the infamous PDX annual All Girls BBQ hosted by Kathy Molloy of "Snipehunt") she KNEW who i was and what zine i did. I am still reeling from surprise.

@Gran I got a job at Kinkos in 93 when I first moved to Portland that's how I know all the zineters/artists/musicians in town
