  • GU board legends and melters

Sorry, bumping an old thread but this has brought back memories of the GU Board and a lot of familiar names. Completely forgot that you could send someone your address and a few days later receive their mix CD in the mail.

Other things I remember..

Wasn’t there some love triangle between Kim Diego, Michael Amherst and a guy called JordanStr8?

Then there was someone who created “The Fairytard”, used to misspell one as won and everyone thought it was Lee Burridge.

And probably like this post, you could be accused of being the “Captain” if you sank a thread with your post.

Got a lot of member mixes on cdr, I think I still have the Bankhead-mixes in the big box of CDRs that sits in the garage that I’ve been meaning to go through for a few years now.

    Greg Whelan sent me his copy of Will Saul’s Balance because he didn’t like it. That’s a real comrade-move and I’m still grateful because I love that mix.

      😂 the term “captain” was used to denigrate someone guilty of posting out of date information, as in “captain five minutes ago”

        I must have misremembered the captain thing…never saw it on other boards.

        I’m glad I found this thread as it brings back memories of being on that messageboard a lot and I remember all of those incidents that have been described!

        C_J posting images of some random image of a cruise ship captain was a regular pastime. Usually after strudders has pointed out something.

          Homegrove I think I still have the Bankhead-mixes in the big box of CDRs that sits in the garage that I’ve been meaning to go through for a few years now.

          Can remember Duncan’s mixes, used to really enjoy.

            Just caught this and it reminded me of a few faves:

            The omelet incident

            Some long-time member (can’t remember who) trying to give Nick Warren mixing advice and eternally losing face

            Cigar board invasion

            Roman S breaking my internet cherry by destroying my first ever message board post: “Favorite GU and why”

            Eugine gave Nick Warren the advice. That was fucking gold

            This thread is like being trapped in a time-loop

            If this is the real Twisted Spicy, welcome back!

            But somebody on Bedrock said you were dead.

            If it is the real Twisted Spicy, you can answer this question: you once worked in an office with a view over a castle. Which castle was that?

              Homegrove Greg Whelan sent me his copy of Will Saul’s Balance because he didn’t like it. That’s a real comrade-move and I’m still grateful because I love that mix.

              First thing I thought when I saw Will Saul’s fizog on the cover of that Balance CD was:
              “Has anyone checked his hard drive?”
