    2) Money clip and credit cards.

    3) Summertime boredom forcing me to go do something, because nothing on the one screen in the house but reruns of old shows and soap operas.

    4) Dave Matthews at Joshua’s in Breckenridge. Sheryl Crow in the DJ booth at a radio station I worked at. Big Head Todd and the Monsters in Escalante Terrace Dormitory cafeteria.

    5) Yes. And I still have a cassette player to digitize them in to the nether.
