Be sure to sign in, get a styrofoam cup of coffee from the percolator in the corner, grab a chair, and turn your cell phones to silent.

Let me welcome you to the meeting. I'll be your moderator tonight. I hope you're all ready to pre-order your handbooks tomorrow. (We'll just have to work without them tonight.)

Hello, my name is SactownConnection... I've been off the bullsh*t music and on the PUTS since 2006, and uh... It's really helped me be a better person. Every now and then, I have these urges to listen "Elephunk" or Drake and my hands start shaking, but... I just... I think of the Funk, and I know I can't subject my family to that ever again. I was just a horrible person, and I used to try to get my kids Grillz and sneak out after work to look at autotuners. I'm committed to the 12SP method though, and I thank the funk for saving my life.

So, I hope you're comfortable. Let's go around the room and introduce ourselves. Who wants to start?

Hello, my name is Martin. I've been hooked on The P since 2000 when Question in the Form of an Answer was released. I partake in the musical dope weekly and have no side effects to speak of. I do dabble in the Turn Up and Drill music. I like titties and when artists like Rick Ross and Fat Trel flash'em, I'm caught double taking. Bowing my head in shame when I realize they're moobs. I'm a sucker for jazz loops though and I can thank Thes for broadening my horizons beyond the sax-a-ma-phones.

Oh, and I like Beer so I don't have to get the f*** out of here!

Hey y'all, my name is AJ, I go by Instrumentalist. Been listening to the P since 2003 when I heard them on the THUG soundtrack. Was instantly hooked by their featured track, The Next Step II and eventually I found some of their full albums. I was still a kid back then, but they saved me from a life of BET music videos between 20 minutes of commercials, and low fidelity tapes I recorded off my boombox radio. But now with the P, I'm hooked spinning a whole new program. Now where the vittles at?

Hello my name is Aaron 'dj Salvador' Johnson and I am a PUTS-aholic.
I brought 'the next step' in about 2001 on double vinyl from a 2nd hand vinyl shop in Birmingham UK and have been hooked ever since.
As I said in my notes in the 10 years of Thes booklet, it felt like the music was been made just for me. My loves, real hip hop, beer, the Simpsons. All key PUTS ingredients!!!!

Hello, my name is Greg King, and I go by djGUERRILLA, Funk Squad, and Sideburns (to those in the Memphis area). I was turned on to the P by one of my childhood friends while smoking something something. I was playing some music I was working on for him, and he basically said, "If this is the kind of music you're into, you should know about the P right?" I said no, we listened to a few tracks, and after that I quickly acquired and slowly digested their catalog until it was pretty much all I was listening to (circa 2009-2010; a late comer to the game I know).

Afterwards, I became completely hooked on the musical dope, and all the local rehab clinics turned me away (they claimed to not know what musical dope is; they also said they didn't have any). Years later, I was able to obtain a special mp3 player preloaded with musical dope that I can carry in my car or on my person for whenever I need a fix (about once every 6-12 hours). Eagerly awaiting the next shipment of musical dope........ #12SP

Hi my name is Gavin aka MrQC aka GabbiHaaze, I'm from the UK and first got addicted to PUTS when I was digging in my local record shop & came across The Cat on vinyl. Since that day I have to have my daily fix of PUTS as that sh!t keeps calling me man. I've been trying to go cold turkey but I've come out in cold sweats as I think about taking the 12 Step Program.....I need that sh!t now!!!

my name is Andy, and i'm a PUTSaholic, among other things.

i was introduced to the P years ago on my first date with the girl who is now my wife,

she said "hey, can we put on my favorite rap album?" and that was it, i was in love.

i thought she was pretty awesome too.

interesting trivia: i'm the oldest dude on these boards. i'm even older than Chris and Mike.

Uh, hi, I'm Mick,..erm late as usual, sorry 'bout that.
So, what happened is my younger brother gave me some PUTs, just to try like, &, well it was nice. I used it once in a while & lived my life. Cool.
But then they upped the strength, talkin' about Fun-DMC, & stuff & being Ol' skool like that I jumped on it hard. But I was still only using cd's at this point.
Highlighter. That was the turning point. See I'd previously been a vinyl addict, but had managed to ween onto cd's, but that beautiful yellow vinyl, well, safe to say my wife has to find a new closet for her clothes now, I can't stop!!! Only vinyl does it for me now. Think I'm gonna flip if that 12 Step ish comes out in that awesome orange & blue mix...sorry I'm droolin'..
Could I get some coffee please?

Hello, my name is Ol' Dirty Bastard, and I'm an alkaholik.... Wait wait, no it's Ryan L (same name as a crummy RnB dude) and I ordered Question In The Form Of An Answer from sandboxautomatic.com (yup) back in 2000 on a whim and a couple good words from some local heads. It took a minute for it to soak in but it was game over from there... Preorders on hiphopsite.com w/ free swag to preorders from the PL70 store - I'm ready to get it in once again! Fingers crossed for a ltd edition 7" w/ vinyl preorder...

Really?? That's gotta be a blast, even if it wasn't for the money. Just to have shared a stage with Gil Scott Heron would've made my head explode. Welcome to the forums, homie!

So you like the East Coast 80's stuff... you probably recognize a lot of P sample sources then... what was your favorite joint back then?

Yeah man,

There was a good scene round these parts in the 90's. There was a jazz funk revival, my home town of Leicester had a good club with good artist coming. You know, a cat jumps on a good thing and has fun. You heard of talking loud records? I was buddies with some of them dudes.

Tracks i love from the 80's......skinny boys weightless. For me that's THE hip hop album right there. Raw, beats rhymes and cuts. All yoh need. Not great production but hey ho.

T la rock, breaking bells and its time to chill are up there for me. Mantronix, in fact most mantronik produced stuff.
I soaked up the juice crew sh!t. Seen them back in 87 or so. Marley Marl and Cool c cuttin on 2 sets of decks was awesome.

Philly influenced me a lot too. Schoollys a favourite. Very underrated i reckon. Tuff crew.

Man, there's so much i could go on for hours.

My kids got a lot of learning to do!

Ta for the welcome
