Welcome - Introduce Yourself Here

I MISSED YOUUUUU TOOOO. i have missed everyone. i am back. but i’m still at work and working a lot and also life is still a mess but i’m okayish! still have to refinish my floors. i still haven’t unpacked my records since moving last november. like. that’s how cool my life has been, i haven’t unpacked anything. mostly living out of a couple duffle bags.

Glad to see you back kid.
 
Hey y'all, my username on VMP was KaylaV, never got around to getting it updated and was mostly a lurker the past year and a half except in the past month or so when I was hanging around in the RSD and preorder thread. Looking forward to being more active and happy to see some many faces.

Thank you for everyone that made this possible!!!
 
Oh, bans are still on the table. And the sexual come ons are still not welcome here. We’re going to build a safe space. Rules and guidelines still to come.

Posted occasionally in the old boards, but not enough for most of you to know much about me. I am 32, been collecting off and on for about 10 years... Have loved all of the new music I've been exposed to over the last couple of years.

So appreciative of everyone that has put in the work this week to get this going, glad to have a new home for all of these wonderful people.
 
Hey! I'm a new guy here. I had become a VMP member fairly recently, since the beginning of the year, but over the past several months you guys on the forums were really helpful in exposing me to a lot of great music, I wouldn't have otherwise been enjoying. I pretty much lurked on the guesses and exclusives threads, but in the past few days have realized what a great group of people this is and that it's so much more than just figuring out my swaps and add ons. My roots are with rock (classic, hard rock, progressive) and jazz. (Not seeing a lot of love for progressive yet. Am I on an island?) I'm hoping to be able to contribute a lot more over on this side.
 
Like many, I’m so thankful to everyone that made this forum happen and did it so bloody fast.

I’m Nick and I live in Denver, CO. I have two young kids, one with special needs (my youngest). When my oldest was about to be born I took a step back professionally and opened my own company so I could work from home. I didn’t realize then that was insane. Oh well, I love that I get to be home with my kids everyday verses being on the road 3-4 months a year like I used to.

I’m a lifelong music and audio geek. I like several genres but jazz the most. Particularly bop/hard bop/post bop. I got my first record player 30 some years ago but only really got back into vinyl 2 years ago. My wallet has hated me since.

Anyway, I’m psyched to see so many people migrate over here and to be part of this new community. Thanks again.

Hi all. Posted here and there on the old VMP forums but never introduced myself. I’ve been collecting records since I was 6 and even though my mom tossed them all by accident when I was in college, I think I’ve been able to rebuild my collection just fine since I started collecting again in the early 00s. Chicago’s been great for growing my collection with all the great stores we have here. Most nights, my wife, myself and the dog listen to records. The dog’s a huge fan of Europe 72.

Excited to see this place grow!
