29. I almost got into deep, deep trouble over that song.

I had a military father who was, shall we say, not very nice. He also had brought a rather nice sound system with a reel to reel back from his tour of duty in Southeast Asia. When my sixteenth birthday came around I threw myself a little party (I was an absolutely straight kid, btw, probably out of fear of being killed outright) and had a few friends over. Unfortunately a couple of those friends recorded an awesome version of that song onto the tape and we forgot to erase it. I was grounded until I was about seventeen. I left home at seventeen.

It's really a great song.

(On edit, I notice I said "almost." Trust me, it could have been considerably worse.)
