my kind of post! there are many sounds that make me nostalgic, because i'm visually impaired.
the on-board takeoff and landing on the airplane, yes! i remember when radio was fun, and that rare chance i'd get to listen to my fave station from out-of-state, way before streaming, you'd be excited to land in that city. one of my old faves being the old Power 104 and oldies 107.5 in Houston, TX. those of you from HTX may know what i'm talking about. i used to say to myself as the plane took off, "power 104, oldies 107.5, here i come!"
the sound of the slot machines as you arrived at the casino (mostly las vegas, but other states with casinos can relate)
the sound of the Circus Circus midway and arcade
the sounds of entering disneyland
the old carson mall and it's shops and arcades, 90's So Cal Kids, do you remember that?
the del mar fairgrounds during summer
Qualcomm stadium and chargers games, including the cannons and fireworks after a charger touchdown
Padres stadium (same thing, except without the cannons,) only fireworks after a home run.
the KGB sky show
90's radio in general, was mostly into top40, but because i was a jingle collector back then, well, still am, wasn't really into country, newstalk, soft rock, or oldies, but for jingles sake, i bared with it.
the old KABC Eyewitness News opens
and finally the neighbors shooting off fireworks Way before the fourth of July. most likely around may. if any of you guys are from the compton area, or have been around 154th street, this was us in the 90's.
