Mine is listening to ACDC.
I remember I just loved them, but I was shy about it, lol.
What about you?

Actually, mine was in grade one.
The teacher asked us things we'd do at a party and i said "Listen to Metallica."
She was like "...Whos Metallica?"

My dad had a really old jukebox, the kind that sat horizontal instead of upright. I remember listening to "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys over and over and over. It was the first rock and roll song I ever heard, and I was REALLY little, like two or three. I also heard The Doors, Janis Joplin, Queen, Jimi Hendrix etc. for the first time on that jukebox.

I grew up in a country & western home, especially Johnny Cash (my dad's favorite) so that was pretty much the music I was exposed to. One day the family went to visit my mother's oldest sister. I was about 13 (this was 1971). I found my older cousins and they were listen to something I never even knew existed. I sat there mesmerized as I listened to "Electric Funeral" for the first time. I've been a Black Sabbath fan ever since that day.

I was about 10 and this complete lunatic came on the TV, screaming and banging on the piano. I asked my mom who it was and she said Little Richard (this would've been the early 70s--I guess he was between Hollywood Squares tapings). She seemed to hate it. I can't say I liked it right away...but it was my first awareness that there was something else, a whole nother world out there (plus of course giving me a glimmering of how I might freak out my parents later, with his records and a bunch more).

Dancing along to a Queen album aged 8-9.
I didn't even realise how important the band i was listening to was, i didn't know who Freddie Murcury was, or that he'd died, i was just having a good time.
Another was watching the video to "Imagine" by John Lennon around the same age. I didn't know how important he was, /who/ he was, or that he was dead either, but the song amazed me.

I wrote down every word to Queen "greatest hits". At least the ones I could decipher, when I was 12.
Also I remember buying Journey "escape" on vinyl. I thought the cover was so cool because it was raised.

Around age 5, my mom was always playing Elvis, Everly Bros, and doo-***. I remembered them well all from the 50's. I was born in 1952.

I remember my stepbrothers always listening to rock and stuff when I was in first grade. Since we were all really close back then, I'd listen to the music too. That's why I love it now. =D
Thank you, Tom and John, for making me fall in love with Linkin Park!!!!
