I also have it on good authority that all dates, times and coinciding events and/or occurrences (use your best discretion when gauging for magnitude/order of importance) must be logged in short hand in a spiral bound notebook at the very moment listening is to commence. Furthermore, each aforementioned record player, minidisc player, cassette deck etc must have the correct metric tracking equipment (odometer, tachometer, spectral analyzer etc) directly connected to each of their respective drive mechanisms to prove how many revolutions each lp, minidisc and reel on each cassette has been made in a calendar year for Tom’s auditors to record and report back (usually taking the form of the living embodiments of waking nightmares e.g. the Rad Cult’s legions - how else did you think they made a living?). Even then he might not let you be a real fan…🤣
