It would have to be the day I downloaded Led Zeppelin's Mothership. I mean, Led Zeppelin had always been in the background of my youth, but I never really payed attention to them. They were just another classic rock name for the majority of my young life, which I spent mostly listening to pop-punk and Warped Tour bands.

But, the summer before I started college, I decided to finally honor my father's taste in music and familiarize myself with the classic rock greats. So I downloaded a compilation of "The 500 greatest songs in Rock N Roll", went through each song and noted the ones I liked, and proceeded to download "greatest of" compilations for a ton of artists. Most notably, this included Mothership.... which really blew my mind and opened my eyes to the fact that music isn't all about ****ty pop-punk.

Shortly thereafter I acquired Zep's entire discography, and then later re-acquired it in 320k
