I PEAKED IN '97 AND SO DID HOUSE MUSIC!

 

[BlackCrowes]

Tell you when it happens

 

[AAABatteries]

Peaked? Peaked, rock? Let me tell you something. I haven’t even begun to peak. And when I do peak - you’ll know. Because I’m going to peak so hard, everybody in the FFA is going to feel it.

I got it now
A thorn in my side the size of a Cadillac
Drive it through
Cause backing up now would be next to impossible

I think this thread is because I heard "Let Forever Be" by the Chemical Brothers in an Amazon intro and thought "that was over twenty-five years ago, bruh." Then I realized that house music peaked about then, sorta like me! I think this borrows liberally from "Tomorrow Never Knows" by the Beatles.

[Pip's Invitation]

Phish peaked on their fall 1997 tour.

Tell you when it happens

But your username checks in at about '97. You're telling me the Robinson brothers would tell you '24 rather than '97?

I don't know about that. You'd already released Amorica

One of the greatest albums ever made

 

[Peggy]

A bunch of times in the 80s and 90s.

 

[rockaction]

One of the greatest albums ever made

I have the box set, actually.

 

[Skipdog77]

Think I'm scheduled for tomorrow, right around. 3:46pm.

 

[rockaction]

I'm pretty sure it was '97. Damn was that a good year. Might have been the summer of '98. That was epic. Everything else from there? Downhill slope like black diamond. Every so often I hit a leisurely plateau, and I relish it, but there's no way I'm getting back into peak form.

No how.

 

[rockaction]

Think I'm scheduled for tomorrow, right around. 3:46pm.

Will you post here when you hit it?

Don't leave us hanging.

HOUSE Music peaked long before 1997. Most folks don't realize how far HOUSE goes back or the lineage. The top 100 or so HOUSE classics were all from the 80's

 

[Charlie Steiner]

Summer 1986

I was 20, had just bought a Toyota Supra (1980, so it was 'high performance' but not a speed demon) and most impressively, had a gf who was way out of my league by orders of magnitude. The most amazing part was that she had approached me.

We started dating around May, had a pretty good Summer, and then my anxieties about outkicking my coverage took over in the Fall and I broke up with her.

I ran into her a few years later, and while I didn't think it was possible, she looked even hotter than when we were dating, as she had become a fitness instructor.

Even worse, to this day, I miss the car more than her.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Not me. I'm in my prime.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

I scored the game winning goal, with seconds left in the game, for my high school freshman soccer team.

Whenever Noel Gallagher collaborated with the Brothers Chemical, you knew the end of Revolver was getting…honored…

Long live the MTV Amp era!

 

[zamboni]

I'm the heaviest I've ever been, so hopefully right now.

I’m like 3 Year Letterman - I peaked in high school and have been peaking ever since.

 

[Ilov80s]

Physically, mentally and emotionally this is definitely my peak. Though I probably was a little better looking in my mid to late 30s than I am now. I could do without so much grey hair in my beard too. But those are all pretty minor and superficial complaints.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Not me. I'm in my prime.

Yeah, you look it.

 

[PIK95]

I would say I peaked at sixteen in 1992. Fall 1995 honorable mention.

You're not heavy, you're my brother.

Us letterman never die, we just peak at different angles, man.

 

[rockaction]

Fall 1995 honorable mention.

 

[rockaction]

PIK95 in '95.

Peak95 in '95

Hmmm . . .

 

[foxco]

When I was 6 years old I saved my younger brother from drowning. Sorta pathetic that the best thing I ever did was around the time Van Halen's first album came out and it's apparently been all downhill since.

 

[TripItUp]

twin peaks (see what I did there)

1990 - Freshman athlete of the year, co-valedictorian, broke school interception record, started for city champ basketball team and baseball team, dated hottest girl in the school

2023 - business took off and I'll likely never have to work for another person again, celebrated the marriage of my forever wife(technically married in 2022 but had "wedding" this year)


FTR I think its more interesting to talk about the abyss vs. the peak

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Back in younger years I peaked after about 3-to-5 minutes. In my late 30s it was more like a half hour. Now as I get older there is no peak, it is more like a trying to jog up a very long, gradual incline…..with two broken legs.

Sorry, what was the question again?

 

[Eephus]

There's no time but the present

 

[Mt. Man]

Not me. I'm in my prime.

I mean, my age is prime. That counts, right?

 

[Eephus]

Amazon is going to run ads on Prime so it's a good thing people peaked early

 

[3C's]

1963, right along with JFK.

3 club championships (golf) in 5 years - '97 - '01

Just bumped into a copy of when Mötley Crüe hit their peak.

Too Fast For Love, baby.

Now that's some peakage! Much impress. My buddy was a golf pro at a club. No small feat.

3 Year Letterman is a very popular troll account on Twitter

 

[Terminalxylem]

Not sure I had a discrete peak, but was most physically fit in my twenties, mentally sharp in my 30s, and emotionally mature now. I wish the latter occurred a couple decades earlier, as fear of failure has typically prevented me from doing my best.

 

[rockaction]

Not sure I had a discrete peak

I can assure you your peak was discreet.

A ha ha.

Huh huh huh.

A hah huh hah huh

 

[Don Quixote]

I’m more of the plateau than peak type.

Look at George Bailey still not heeding the lessons Clarence taught him
