Let’s Go! #NinetiesFriday #ILoveTheNineties #Nineties
I’ll be talking about the soundtrack to Empire Records below, but first ⬇️…
I’m hoping this builds into something similar to ThreeTuneTuesday where we have many people involved! But I gotta start so here we go! I will give 3 basic income units to a winning random post every week who uses the #NinetiesFriday tag. Also @thebighigg has jumped in to match for 6 total weekly prize! If anyone else wants to sponsor with any amount of units let me know or just send if you don’t wanna commit to weekly 👍
Some ideas are music, movies, television, sports, or really anything Nineties related. I assume movie or tv or music topic reviews or talk will be most common, but you could also talk a sports memory or something else. Think the Pop Culture of the times, but it would be great to hear about little known and interesting bands or entertainment items. Don’t forget to use tag #NinetiesFriday
Ok now on to this weeks post!
Empire Records is a Nineties classic film. Especially the ladies at my high school loved it! It was an alternative cult classic. Kinda had an eighties movie vibe but with nineties themes. The film is about a bunch of college age kids who work at Empire Records, the anti chain store record spot where the punks and alt kids shop!
