Work at a retirement place. We get performers through on occasion.

Saw a dude with catalogue of floppies. Dude claimed he got burnt by a usb on occasion so he went back to floppies. I was enraptured.

He reeked of cigarettes and was still a road performer in his 60s

What does a 60-something retirement home road performer store on floppy disks, exactly

[–] TwoBeeSan 2 points 6 days ago

His queued mixes i believe.

He would be doing vocals/guitar and play the song without whatever he was going to do via his board

Could be wrong but only conclusion could draw from his bizarre setup
