My hope for this post on EC is to start a collective memory (oral/aural history) — one that can involve as many folks giving their memories as possible. I realize my memories are fading or failing or are just different of same events as others. And so that maybe if we all chip in our brains we can have a true(r) story of the various cassette networks that have happened and the events surrounding them? So as I kind of cleanup/organize my archives — in other words getting crap out of boxes and more visible — I am hoping to post on occasion flyers, concert stuff whatever — and maybe those involved or who saw or remember things can add in their thoughts and memories. So that in the future as maybe more folks write about those/these times - it's not reliant on more prominent people alone - making this one hopes the people's history of the cassette network/underground. So here are a few first flyers from my archives....  possibly 1988  February/March 1988  late Summer/Fall 1986  1987
